How To Use The Best 40 Features of iPhone 3.0 : iSmashPhone on 2009-06-26
- Shake to shuffle
  
  This feature is pretty self-explanatory, but is really great - especially for working out. Imagine you're running or working out in the gym, and you're iPhone's iPod is in shuffle mode. Some mellow, non-workout-appropriate Coldplay song comes on. You have to get your iPhone out of your pocket and press next with your sweaty finger.
  
  With this update, you can keep your iPhone in your pocket (or strapped to your arm if you have an iPhone arm band) and just give it a quick jiggle.
  
  If you are in a specific album or playlist, it shuffles within that album or playlist. If not, it just picks a random song out of your whole library.
- 8. Double click home button
  
  In the previous iPhone operating systems, we had the option to double click the home button to access "Favorites", and to access iPod controls if music was already playing. Now you can access the Spotlight Search or the Camera by double clicking the home button.
  
  How it works:
  Go to Settings
  Go to General
  Go to Home
  Select the option you desire
- 8 more annotations...
- - Auto Fill Usernames/Passwords
    
    By creating a contact for yourself, the iPhone can automatically fill out any registration form with the credentials you enter. It can also auto-fill username and passwords based on what you previously entered into that site.
    
    How it works:
    Since there are some security issues that may concern you, this feature must be turned on manually.
    Go to Settings
    Go to Safari
    Go to Autofill
    Choose the contact you created for yourself
  - Type new message while previous is still sending
    
    If you already have 3.0, you probably noticed that when you send a text message, the progress bar is now at the top. The reason for this relocation is so that you can start typing a message while the previous one is still sending. Notice the "Sending..." bar at the top.
  - 17. Moving app across pages
    
    Apple has finally realized the small but irritating mistake they made about relocating applications. If you've ever tried to move an app across a few pages, you probably noticed that it messes up the order of apps on the pages you pass, leaving blank spaces and shifting things around.
    
    With iPhone OS 3.0, simply drag the application to the right or left corner of the page, and hold it there. The pages will keep flipping. When you've arrived to the page you want to add the app to, just move the app away from the corner. Everything remains in tact, and no blank spaces are added. Way to go Apple!
  - Select the things you would like to restrict from your children (or husband)
  - 22. Encrypt iPhone Back Up
    
    Keep the data backed-up in iTunes from your iPhone safe and secure by encrypting it and password protecting it.
    
    How it works:
    Select the option "Encrypt iPhone Backup"
    Set a password
    Do not forget it!
  - 32. Force Quit An Application
    
    This process forces a frozen application (or just a frozen iPhone) to go back to the home screen. Most times the iPhone returns to the home screen automatically. If it doesn't, here what you can do:
    
    Hold down the power and home button until "Slide to Turn Off" appears
    Let go of both buttons
    Press and hold ONLY the home button for 5-6 seconds
  - 38. Album Art Displayed While Charging (instead of battery logo)
    
    Part of the iPhone's appeal is it's attractive design, and when you're having a party, you want things to look good. If you have an iPod Dock that plays iPhone music and charges it at the same time, you might have noticed that the stylish album artwork disappears, and the green/red battery logo appears.
    
    Now, with 3.0, even if the phone is charging, the display will continue to show the album artwork.
  - 39. App Counter
    
    If you've ever gotten into a competition with your friends about who has more apps (I'll challenge anybody), or if you're just curious, the iPhone now counts your applications.
    
    How it works:
    Go to Settings
    Go to General
    Go to About
    The 5th item down "Applications" tells you how many you've got
