Your iPhone iPad can talk!

You probably didn’t know that your iPhone or iPad can speak words back to you as you type. Its pretty good its can actually do full sentences as well. It can even speak EMOJIS! LOL. So if you listen to the start of the video your get the idea of how powerful it can be. The iPhone voice does the video introduction for me.

Step 1 – iPhone iPad Speak – Turn it on

If you are using iOS 13 then you can find the speak words switch under Settings, Accessibility, Spoken Content, Toggle on Speak Selection. Then go down to Typing Feedback and toggle on the Speak words button.

However if you are on iOS 12 you will find it a little bit different. Go into Settings, General and Accessibility. Then make sure your Speak Selection is toggled on at the top and in Typing Feedback make sure your Speak Words is turned on.

Step 2 – Turn it all off

So to turn off the Speak word function you can just reverse the steps mentions above. So that its guys go ahead and turn it on and have a bit of fun with it.

iOS 12, Is it faster? Benchmark & Features

Hi guys Matt from 123myit here and in this video I will go over Apples iOS 12, Is it faster? we will find out.

Ok Guys I heard that Apple latest iOS 12 update should improve device performance rather than slow it down. So I thought I would give this upgrade a shot and test it on my older iPhone 5s and see if I notice any better performance along with checking out the new iOS 12 features.

Before upgrading I ran the Benchmark and you can see the result below with iOS 11.2.

iOS 12, Is it faster?

The results from iOS 11.2 were as follows:
Single core score, 1261
Multi cord score, 2157

To upgrade your iPhones iOS to 12 you can do this by going into Settings > Software update.
And you will read in the update information it states iOS 12 brings performance improvements and exciting new features.

Below is a picture of the Benchmark result after the upgrade to iOS 12. As you can see the Benchmark does confirm Apples claims to being faster.

The results from iOS 12 were as follows:
Single core score, 1308
Multi cord score, 2169

For me personally I think this is a welcomed change from Apple who was always the company seen to slow down the older devices to force customers to upgrade their iOS device. Right now this means you might get a little bit more use out of older devices which is fantastic news, however lets see what happens when Apple releases iOS 13. Will they delivery the same positive boost?

Other features that have been added to iOS 12:

Notification’s screen.
Battery usage.
Measurement screen ar kit leveler tool
New animal emojis koala and t-rex
Create your own emojis
Screen time how you are using iOS device
Limits on apps
Downtime app limits
