Quora：你可能不知道的五个iPhone使用技巧

虽然表面上iPhone按键只有一个HOME键，大部分操作都依赖触摸屏。但是挡不住各种组合：Power键+Home键的组合，短按、长按、按住并保持、双击、下拉、向左向右滑动、点击顶部状态条等等，这样组合下来可能有很多种你意想不到的功能会出现。今天的日常英语资讯要给大家介绍Quora上大神分享的五个iPhone使用技巧。

While traveling abroad, you can use Google Maps as a free GPS without an international data plan by making use of its hidden offline maps feature.

出国的时候(或者在没有信号的地方)，通过隐藏的离线地图功能，你可以把 Google 地图当免费的GPS 导航用。

You can use this feature by simply zooming to a map area you want offline in the maps app and typing "ok maps" into the search box, and then this data will be available even when you don't have data connectivity.

使用方法是，将地图缩放到你想要离线的位置，然后在搜索框中敲入：ok maps，于是这个地区的离线数据就自动下载到你的手机里了。

This works in both the iOS and Android apps. I also suggest "starring" pl



aces of interest since you can't search or route when offline. For routes, take screenshots of searches when you are online ( say you have wifi at the hotel) and use them as guides.

当然，这个技巧在 iOS 和 Andorid 上是通用的。我也建议您将重要的地方打上星号，这样在没有信号的时候依然可以找到。你还可在有信号的地方查好路径，然后截图下来当做地图用。

Well. It's probably not the coolest feature but it's really really helpful when you're busy. Set your iPhone to airplane mode before you charge it. The battery will recharge as twice as fast. It'll just take a shower and a coffee to be fully loaded!

好吧，虽然这可能不是最酷的一个特性，但它在你时间紧迫的时候会非常有用。在充电之前打开飞行模式，你充电的速度会加快一倍，洗个澡喝个咖啡，手机就充满了。

Keyboard: when you need to type a number (or shift key as well) it can be inconvenient to switch to numbers, type one number then switch back to letters.

键盘：如果你需要输入数字(或者是用Shift键)，总要在数字键或shift，和字幕键盘之间来回切换是个麻烦事儿。

If you press, and hold the number key then slide to the number and lift your finger off it will type the number and automatically switch back to previous keyboard.
