The iPhone isn’t just a brick with software inside. It’s a mystery box filled with lots of features that could probably change your life.

Even after a year and a half of using Apple devices, I still discover new features every other day. They completely change my opinion on my iPhone. It feels I’m carrying a superpower with me all the time — just like that crazy Marvel hero who’s experimenting with his newly got spidey powers.

Here are a 10 of the amazing features I lately discovered. You probably didn’t knew these.

#1. Send photos with Siri 🔺

Navigate to any photo on your default Photos app and say, “Hey Siri! Send this photo to Jane!” or someone else. And the photo is instantly ready to go. If you’d like to add a caption for it, you can do it too.

This way, you can easily send photos to someone without those fussy clicks and searches.

Drawbacks:
• Works only with Apple photos and iMessage.
• Can only send single photo at a time.
