You can quickly end phone calls by simply pressing the power button on your iPhone. While this is a handy feature to have, it can also lead to accidental hang-ups, since your fingers tend to rest on the Side button when holding the phone up to your ear. You can prevent the power button ending calls from the Accessibility settings on your iPhone.

The Apple Watch has had a Power Reserve Mode for a while now, but the latest version of watchOS replaced it with a Low Power Mode that works more effectively.

We’ll go over how this mode works, how it differs from Power Reserve, and how to switch it on and off.

If you forgot your Apple Watch password, there are two easy ways to reset it! Since your iPhone and Apple Watch are linked (and all your Apple Watch data is stored on your iPhone), you can use the Watch app on your iPhone to reset your Apple Watch. This way, you can create a new Apple Watch passcode without losing any data.
