learning new tech can sometimes feel like learning a new language or learning a magic trick or playing the guitar I've been using the iPhone 10 for a couple of days now and it's got a whole bunch of new features and a whole bunch of new gestures and they're pretty different than the other iPhones that have come before it but don't worry that's why I'm here I'm gonna teach you the iPhone 10 there used to be a home button on the phone that's gone instead you swipe up from the bottom to flick your way out of an app so to go through that again it's a quick gesture and you flick the question is will that affect any apps that you use so far not yet what happened to Control Center it used to be a swipe up now it's a swipe down from the top right to get to all of your shortcuts don't do swipe down from the middle that's your notifications it's the top right to get into your phone in the first place if you have face ID you lift wait for the unlock and then swipe up it doesn't have to be that slow though if you want to speed it up a bit you could lift the phone swipe up and then wait for the unlock to kick in how do you get to the rest of your open apps you swipe up from the bottom and hold and it brings them all up they have to bring it up and hold so again swipe up and hold and then if you want to close an app if you want to force quit you tap and hold on an app and then these little red things appear you tap on one and it's gone if you wanted to quick multitasking on the iPhone 10 all you have to do is look for the black bar on the bottom and then do a swipe to the left or right to look at all the apps that are open and quickly swap between them how do you get to Siri it's hiding inside the side button click and hold and Siri is waiting for you how do you turn off your phone it doesn't happen with the side button anymore that just puts your phone to sleep instead you hold that button and you hold the bottom volume button at the same time and that brings up not just power off but SOS mode if you see something you like you you want to take a screenshot you hold the side button and the top volume button to take the screenshot now once you've done that in iOS 11 you can then choose to edit it before saving or deleting Apple pay used to be a double click on the home button now it's a double click on the side button bring it up and then when you look at the phone in a nabel's face ID for Apple pay and finally one more thing to keep in mind with the iPhone 10 to wake it up you don't even need to click any button just tap the screen you
