Ryan Wade: What's up everyone this is Ryan with UniqueApps.com. I've got another video tip for you all today and this video tip is going to cover the caps lock feature of the iPhone and the iPod Touch. So I am actually going to click messages here in my text messages I am going to click on composing a new message and I am actually just going to go straight into the field here. I am actually going to go to the landscape just you can see it a little better. Now what we have here is you'll notice that the caps lock is already on I have it set to capitalize the beginning of sentences, but if I start typing you'll notice that the caps lock automatically goes off. If I want to add in caps lock now there is a couple of ways do it. First off again if I put in a period there, the caps lock automatically goes on, but again as soon as I type in the first letter, the caps lock goes off.
So there is a couple of ways to do that, first off you can actually type it, type your letter, hit it again, type your letter to do all caps lock. Now I am just typing random letters right now or another way that you can do that is you can actually hold down the caps lock. Now that it's held down I can every single letter now that I type is all capitalized, but this actually gives kind of cumbersome if you ever want to type in A or a Z, so again I can barely hit that A right now, I am even in landscape mode. So regardless it's kind of hard to type like that just holding this, it's nice for maybe typing wow, real quick or something like that, but I want to show you a feature in the iPhone settings that will allow you to automatically turn your caps lock on, so I am going hit the home screen, get out of this. I am going in to my iPhone settings here. I am going to scroll down the general and then also scroll down, I am going to find the keyboard settings.
So the keyboard settings has enabled caps lock. Right now it's off go ahead and click this and I am going to turn that setting on. Now I am going to, I just hit the home button again, I am going to hit one more time and I am going to touch my messages again, going to compose a new message, it looks like already have all that text out there, so I am going to wipe that off, I am going to compose a new message. Now I want to show you what happens, just like, just like before if I start typing, my caps lock goes off, but now I can actually double tap this to just well let me just want to make sure you saw that, I can actually double tap this and actually gets highlighted blue. Now any letter that I type right now I can type in wow, and you know anything now, as soon as you do punctuations, it obviously goes off, but with that caps lock enable, if you double tap just you can type in your whole message in all caps if you like to and then get out of that, you just, you either use a punctuation, period or an exclamation mark or something or you just tap it again.
So again you still can do it just with tapping it once, so if you just want to capitalize Z you do that and it goes back to your regular, but if you again if you double tap that, every single letter now that you type is capitalized. So I just thought that it would be really a cool tip to share, much really great if you want to, I actually always leave this on, there is lot of messages that I want to type to my friends where I capitalize a lot and it's kind of a pain in the ass just to hold that so, that's my tip today, the caps lock feature, I hope you enjoyed the video and I hope you all have a great day.
