I learned something new about my iPhone (nothing new for others, I am sure) [View all]

I got it - SE - almost three years ago from Consumer Cellular.

Spouse got a few books which are not easy to follow and it was leaning as I went.

Except the whatsapp that I found a good Youtube clip.

I was talking by phone to a support person at the local Apple store, wondering whether at 81% battery I needed a new one. She entered my phone, conducted some diagnostic and everything was OK.

While there, she showed me how to open all the pages in Safari! Wow! I had more than 350 pages! Every single page that I have ever visited from the iPhone from the past year was there.

A years ago my cousin was "deleting" items on my phone but I had no idea what she was doing..

Interesting thought, I really do not use the iPhone as a computer. Mostly mail, text, weather and quick Facebook and Nextdoor.

Now I wonder whether the same thing exists on my iPad and..

No wonder my cousin claims that "old people" - meaning me - have difficulties mastering new technology.
