Must-know iPhone 15 tips and tricks

sponsored post

Setting up a new phone is exciting since making it truly yours is where the real value lies. If you want an everyday setup that feels faster, calmer and more capable, this guide is for you.

In the next few lines, you’ll learn how to streamline notifications with Focus Filters, put the Action Button to work with one‑press shortcuts, and customise widgets to cut down on taps.

We’ll also cover simple camera tweaks for better photos and videos, plus battery habits that protect your phone over time; read on for practical, no‑nonsense tips you can apply today.

Supercharge everyday convenience

Start with Focus Filters to shape what you see depending on the moment: work, gym, or family time. A quick toggle in the Control Centre helps you switch gears and stay present. If you only set up one, try a simple work focus with essential apps and calendar alerts.

Give the Action Button a job you’ll actually use by assigning a single press to open the camera, start a voice memo, or run a shortcut that turns on Do Not Disturb and cues your concentration playlist.

And when you’re organising your Home Screen, add interactive widgets to tick off tasks, start a timer or trigger a smart‑home scene without opening apps. At least the iPhone 15 lets you keep this setup lean and quick, and the best part is you can get this model at Back Market, where they sell quality‑checked refurbished phones with clear warranties and lower prices than the new ones.

Capture, share, and create like a pro

You’ll notice the camera upgrades right away. Try photographic styles to keep a consistent look, and switch to grid lines for cleaner framing. For action, hold the shutter for a burst and pick the keeper later.

Portrait features are more flexible now, and when your subject is a person, cat or dog, the camera often saves depth automatically. Later, you can convert the shot to a portrait and adjust background blur with a simple slider, which is very handy when a quick snap deserves a more polished finish.

If video is your thing, QuickTake is the shortcut to remember, so press and hold the shutter to start recording instantly without changing modes. For extra reach, steadier frames and more control over colour profiles, the iPhone 15 Pro Max is a strong step up for creators.

Smart power and seamless sharing

Look after your battery over time with optimised charging and the optional 80% limit; your phone learns your routine and reduces stress near a full charge. With USB‑C, you can even top up accessories directly from your phone, which is useful for earbuds on the go.

Sharing is smoother too. NameDrop lets you bring two devices close to exchange contacts securely, and AirDrop can keep large transfers going over mobile data if you leave Wi‑Fi—ideal for passing along a short edit or a set of trip photos without waiting around.

With Focus Filters, a purposeful Action Button, smarter camera defaults and gentle battery care, your phone feels more helpful and less demanding. Keep what fits your routine, skip the rest, and let your iPhone handle the small stuff while you get on with your day.
