1. Turn on dark mode
With iOS 13, Apple has finally integrated a system-wide dark mode into its OS, as it has been available in macOS for a long time. You can turn it on quickly and easily via the Control Center, which you open by dragging down from the top screen. Press the Brightness button and then switch to Dark Mode.
But there is another way, which also offers you some more options:
Opens the Settings
Go to Display & Brightness
At the top, you can choose between Light and Dark
Below this, you can also activate the Automatic switch
Then you can choose whether you want the dark mode to activate automatically from sunset to sunrise or whether you prefer to set your own schedule

The beauty of dark mode in iOS 13 is that apps that support it automatically activate it when you turn it on in System Preferences. Some apps offer the additional option to change the theme specifically for the app, but you don’t have to worry. Many iOS apps that are kept up to date already support dark mode.
2. Hello, Haptic Touch
With the new iPhones, Apple is doing without the 3D Touch hardware and is using Haptic Touch instead. Haptic Touch now replaces the old 3D Touch technology on older iPhones that still have the 3D Touch hardware too. Haptic Touch means that you just have to press and hold an icon. The different pressure levels that existed in 3D Touch are history.

3. Move and delete apps
This tip refers to the previous tip. If you want to move apps, proceed as follows:
Press and hold the desired app icon
Selects Rearrange Apps
Move the app icon to the desired location or folder
Finally, tap on Finish in the top right next to the notch
If you want to delete an app, the process is very similar:
Press and hold the desired app icon
Selects Rearrange Apps
Tap on the small X at the top left of the app icon
Confirm with Delete
Finally, tap on Finish top right next to the notch
4. Memories in iMessage
Apple has redesigned the reminder app. A new interesting feature is to receive a reminder when sending a message. So you can set your iPhone to remind you when you want to send a message to a specific person. To do this, proceed as follows:
Opens Reminders
Tap New Reminder
Enter what you want to be reminded of
Tap the small i on the right
Select the option Remind me when sending a message
You can then choose a person
If you now write a message to this person your iPhone will remind you to mention what you asked it

Unfortunately, this only works with Apple’s own messaging app, but not with WhatsApp or other messengers.
5. Try the new gestures
There are a few new gestures in iOS 13. You can simply touch the cursor and move it to the right place in a text. Tap on the cursor and hold it – it will get bigger and you can put it where you want it to be.
If you want to mark text, tap a word and then stroke to the end of the section you want to mark. Alternatively, a double-tap on a word marks it, a triple tap marks a whole sentence, and a quadruple tap the whole paragraph.
Now you can “grab” the section with three fingers to copy it. Do this twice to cut it out. The opposite gesture pastes the copied text at the selected location. When writing texts, there is also a new feature: just try to drag your finger to the respective letters using the keyboard. This works similar to the swipe typing you may already know from Gboard.

6. Continuous shooting with the new camera app
In the new camera app, you can no longer simply hold your finger on the shutter release button to take continuous shots. Instead, tap on the trigger and pull your finger to the left – fire free!
