IPhone’s hidden Caps Lock

Saturday, December 20th, 2008

iphonecapWhen you love caps lock and want to type your sms / mail / twit on your iphone entirely in caps without having to tap the Shift key before each letter Apple has the feature we know you’ll like!

Your IPhone does include the Caps Lock feature! You just need to enable this;

- Tap “Settings”
- Tap “General”
- Tap “Keyboard”
- Use the “Enable Caps Lock” slider
That’s it!

Now you can finally express yourself like we know you want! Just quickly tab the Shift key twice. Instead of the usual glowing arrow  for one letter in upper case the whole shift key turns blue like the image show.

tapping the Shift key again turns caps lock off…
