Trick: Activate Caps Lock on your iPhone

caps-lock

Sometimes we have to write words that consist of acronyms, as is the case with organizations such as UNICEF, or we simply want to highlight the importance of a specific text. For this we use capital letters. In these cases, many users who do not know the correct way to do it in iOS touch the SHIFT key before each of the letters they want to capitalize, but this has not been necessary for a long time.

As with any desktop keyboard, iOS has a simple key combination that will act as the «caps lock»That you can see on almost any computer keyboard. The only thing is that you have to make sure that we have the option activated.

How to activate Caps Lock on iPhone

Steps to activate Caps Lock

In order to use the caps lock option we will do the following:

  1. We go to Settings / General / Keyboard.
  2. We activate Caps lock.
  3. And now, to use it, we will simply touch twice about button uppercase. We will see that the arrow changes indicating that we have the caps lock activated.

By default, unless some kind of software error has occurred, which is unlikely, this option is activated, but it can happen, as it has happened to me, that an option that I thought was activated is not actually activated. , so it drove me crazy trying something that was not possible.

And, for those who do not know, yes we keep our finger on top of the shift button without releasing, all the keys that we press will be capitalized. This is especially good for writing words in which we have more than one consecutive capital letter. For example, when writing keys. Depending on the version of iOS you are using, you will hear one more click, which is when you release the key. But it is normal.

    On my iphone8 plus it doesn't work.
    How sorry I am to have bought this phone, the program is terrible compared to the android; lacks all kinds of intelligence.
    Hopefully I will find someone to sell this beautiful cell phone to at the same price as the one I paid !!!
