Lurking beneath the surface of iOS are several hidden iPhone apps that will take your user experience to the next level.

Magnifier has been around since 2016, but there’s a good chance you’re not aware of it. Billed as an accessibility feature, Magnifier allows iPhone users to greatly enhance the zoom on their camera when directed at text or an object that happens to be either close or far away. Note that the Magnifier is significantly more capable than the built-in zoom on the Camera.

Code Scanner is a QR scanning app. In many ways, it’s similar to the QR reader already built into the Camera app. There is, however, one minor difference. When you scan a QR code with Code Scanner, it will open up the corresponding link immediately within an in-app browser. The benefit here is that you can bypass calling Safari into action. In the process, you can look at restaurant menus and ticket information without opening up countless new tabs in Safari.

Additionally, you can specify what action you’d like to trigger when tapping your iPhone. If you don’t want to go the screenshot route, some other options include turning Siri on, adjusting the volume, viewing the Notification Center, muting your device, and more.
