         7. Max the number of photos you take with a single shot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

         iPhones are famous for their amazing camera quality. You can capture stunning portraits, food photos and many more with this superior quality camera and unique effects. But there have been several complaints about the quality of action photos taken with iPhone cameras. But now, from iPhone 5s upwards, there is a feature called Burst Shot<\/strong> which allows you to take a number of photos with a single tap. 10 photos per second, to be exact. Now you can be assured that in a couple of those many photos, there is the perfect moment captured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         8. Disabling AMBER Alerts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

         With iOS 6, Apple introduced an AMBER alert system, which notifies you with emergency alerts issued in your area. If you find these notifications disturbing and unwanted, you can always disable them. But it is highly recommended that you keep them enabled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         However, here are the steps to disable them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         Settings > Notifications > AMBER alerts<\/strong> and toggle the button off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         9. Prevent advertisers from tracking you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

         Advertisers who use ad networks to track your website visits, make you see the same advertisement banner everywhere. This is disturbing much. So, you can block them from tracking you. It will not stop, but it will effectively reduce. If you are using iOS 6 upwards go to Settings > Privacy > Advertising > Limit Ad Tracking<\/strong>.

         10. Frequent Locations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

         iOS can track your frequent locations and build patterns of your daily routes. And they will start providing you with the weather condition, traffic alerts and other information on your route. This is called Significant Locations<\/strong>. It is turned on by default. You can turn this off or change data by going to Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services > Significant\/Frequent Locations<\/strong>.
