Settings > Control Center and add Text size. To set the text size in each app individually or all apps, open an app like Notes and goto the Control Center open Text Size and you can set the size to the individual app. Copy Links from a Tab Group in Safari and paste in Notes and other documents. Open the Tabs groups tap Edit on top left. Tap the ellipse next to the group you want to send and select copy. You can then paste it in an email, document, or wherever you want to send this to. I find notes is a good place to create that list of linked tabs. Text Selection Magnifier This feature was removed in iOS14 and now its back. Tap anywhere that text appears in emails, messages, notes, to move your cursor. The magnifier pops up with the cursor to see the text and assists you in placing the cursor in position. Find Your Turned Off iPhone In the Settings app, tap your ‌Apple ID‌ banner at the top, then select Find My. Make sure the switches next to Find My iPhone and Find My network are turned on. That way, you'll be able to find your ‌iPhone‌ in the Find My app under the Devices tab, even if your ‌iPhone‌ has run out of battery or is turned off.

It works really well with the iPhone and iPad in different positions keeps it upright depending on your needs and gives you a great way to view your device on a desk or any table or maybe while you are cooking. It comes in fun colors and also they offer a 360 degree model that lets you spin in 360 for different positions. It doesn't support the larger iPad Pro 12.9 model but supports the smaller 11" and smaller models as its not stable with the larger sizes. Although you can use 2 GoDonuts to stand it up. Here are some photos. Dave also reviews the Ampridge Bluetooth MightyMic for iPhone or iPad. It has Bluetooth 5.0 support and is the size of a thumb drive. I played a demo recording I thought the sound was good. It also supports external mics I tested it with a lapel mic and works really well. The only negative is you cannot use it with the core apps like camera and audio recording but does work as a mic of the phone. The video app Filmic Pro works very well with this mic.
