If you own an iPhone, you should enable these settings. Today, we will share some interesting iPhone settings to improve your experience.
Live voicemail
A recent feature debuting with iOS 17 is live voicemail, but this isn’t available in India. However, you can enable this by changing the device language settings from English (India) to English (US). After changing the language, the region was changed from India to the United States.
Once you change the language and region, you will see the Live Voicemail option within the Phone Settings. What this will do is that whenever you get a call, you will have a voicemail button that will allow you to see the transcription on screen. So now, without picking up the call, you will know if the call is important to answer. It helps you avoid spam calls and saves time. On top of everything, this feature will also allow you to check your voicemail in the phone app.
Haptic
Like every flagship, Haptic on the iPhone is amazing, but making the haptic feedback faster can enhance your experience. To enable this, follow these steps:
- Open iPhone Settings.
- Head over to Accessibility.
- From there, choose Touch, and then look for Haptic Touch.
- There, you have the option to choose Fast.
After enabling this, haptic feedback becomes more responsive than before.
Warning about sensitive content
Another helpful privacy feature, especially for women who receive a lot of inappropriate pictures online.
- Open iPhone Settings.
- Head over to Privacy & Security.
- From there, look for the Open Sensitive Content Warning.
- Toggle to enable the Sensitive Content Warning.
This feature will detect if you receive an inappropriate photo or video and blur it in the preview. By clicking on the Show button, you can still view it. This feature is currently supported in a limited number of applications, including iMessage, AirDrop, and video messages.
Screen distance
If you have a habit of keeping your screen close to your face and need a reminder to keep it at a safe distance, here is the option:
- Open the device settings.
- Head over to Screen Time.
- Under Limited Usage, you have the option for screen distance. Enable it.
From now on, if you keep your device too close to your face, it will use Face ID to alert you about this.
Lockscreen Wallpaper Shuffle
Looking for wallpaper customization for the lock screen? You can head to Lockscreen Customisation to choose many images that go through a cycle. You do have the option to choose Shuffle frequently and Style as well.
Disable notifications during screen sharing.
This is one of the most common things that happens. You may encounter notifications when you are sharing the screen. To disable notifications during screen sharing, here’s what you need to do:
- Open the device settings.
- Head over to Notifications.
- From there, choose screen Sharing to toggle and disable notifications during screen sharing.
Auto-delete OTPs
There is no use in storing OTPs on your smartphone. Decluttering is the best thing you can do.
- Open the device settings.
- Head over to Passwords.
- There, you will find a password option. Enable Clear Up Automatically from there.
Once enabled, it will automatically delete the OTPs from the device.
Stolen device protections
In case your device is stolen, you need to protect your device’s personal data.
- Open the device.
- From there, head over to Face ID and Face ID.
- Tap on Protection.
With this, other users will need to authenticate through Face ID if your device gets stolen or hacked. Without Face ID, they can’t even reset the device. However, this feature won’t work if the device is in a trusted location.
Camera settings
You know the iPhone Camera has a level feature, which is handy for those who love to level their photos.
- Open the device settings.
- Go to Camera and then toggle to enable the level under Composition.
If you have an AirTag, this is one of the most useful features.

- From there, tap Add a person.
You can add up to five people.
