Adjust the Volume<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Getting ready for an exam or just taking a break from the hustle and bustle can be challenging, but it’s manageable. Simply turn on background sounds on the iPhone 14, 15, or any other model to “find yourself” under the rain, by the ocean, or near a forest stream. You can do this right in the university hallway or in your dorm room: find the \u201cHearing\u201d button (shaped like an ear) in Control Center. Add it if it’s missing. Then activate the option\u2014see how below.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, if you want to make the sound louder because you’re sitting in the back or the lecturer is speaking too quietly, Live Listen can help. Place the phone closer to the lecturer and connect AirPods to the iPhone. Here\u2019s how to do it in more detail:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Wait for the yellow frame to appear and tap the recognition button (the page of the book in the frame).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

      \n
    • The system will suggest the following options: “Copy,” “Select All,” “Find,” “Translate,” “Search the Web,” “Share”\u2014choose according to the situation.<\/li>\n
    • You can copy or forward not the entire page, but specific words or quotes\u2014press and hold on the display until the text is highlighted. Stretch it to the desired size and choose the needed action\u2014copy, forward, find, translate, and so on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Transcribe Audio Recordings Faster<\/strong><\/h2>\n

      Impressive Handoff Magic<\/strong><\/h2>\n
