When it’s time to visualize your thoughts and concepts, Apple’s Freeform whiteboard app is the ideal tool on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. This powerful productivity app lets you brainstorm on your own or share ideas with others with all the tools you need to bring your concepts to fruition.

How to Set Up Apple Freeform

To use the free Freeform whiteboard app, make sure your Apple device(s) are up to date. Your iPhone, iPad, or Mac will need to be updated to iOS 16.2, iPadOS 16.2, or macOS Ventura 13.1 or later.

On iPhone and iPad, you’ll see the app icon on your Home screen. On Mac, you’ll find it in the Applications folder or Launchpad.

When you first open the app, you’ll be asked if you want to enable iCloud Syncing. This allows you to access your boards on your other Apple devices. Select “Go to Settings” on your iPhone or iPad and open the Settings app. On Mac, open the System Settings app.

Select your Apple ID at the top. Choose “iCloud” and turn on the toggle for “Freeform.”

You may be asked to merge the local Freeform data with that on iCloud. Select “Merge” to continue.

Once you set up Freeform on your device, you’re ready to use its features.

Tip: if you are looking for a way to sign a PDF document on your Mac, the Preview app will work far more effectively than Freeform. You can even use your iPhone or iPad to transfer your signature to your Mac.

Select the Create a Board icon (pencil in a square) at the top of the app window.

When the blank board displays, you’ll see the default name of “Untitled” on the top left, which you can change. On iPhone, tap the three dots and pick “Rename.”

On iPad, tap the arrow next to the name and select “Rename.”

On Mac, select the current text and replace it with your own.

You can use the zoom option on the bottom left to increase or decrease the board space. Use the zoom drop-down box or the plus and minus buttons to pick a percentage.

Tip: learn how to zoom in and out on Mac.

With Freeform, you can add all sorts of items to your board to collect and display your ideas. You can also adjust each item to fit the space, change the font, or choose a color.

The customization options are in different places on mobile and desktop. On iPhone and iPad, these options are in the item’s toolbar.

Select the Sticky Note icon in the toolbar to add a note to your board, then enter the text.

Drag a corner to resize the note or select it to drag it to a different spot on the board.

FYI: read on to learn of other ways to add a sticky note on Mac.

Select the Shape icon in the toolbar to include a shape on your board. You can pick from a category in the pop-up window like Basic, Geometry, Animals, Activities, and more. Alternatively, you can search for a particular shape by using the magnifying glass icon.

Drag a corner to resize the shape or select it to drag it to a different spot on the board.

Select the Text Box icon in the toolbar and add text inside it.

Drag a corner or edge to resize the text box or select it to drag and move it anywhere you would like.

Select the media icon in the toolbar to add a photo, video, or link. You can also insert a scanned document, use your device camera, or on Mac, add a sketch from the Freeform app on your iPhone or iPad.

Photos: replace the image, crop it, or view it in full screen mode. You can also apply a shadow, round the corners, and lock the image in place.

Videos: replace the video or view it in full screen mode. Like photos, you can apply a shadow, add rounded corners, and lock its position.

Link: edit the link, open it in your browser, duplicate the link, or lock its position on the board.

Good to know: unsure how to edit a video on Mac? We can show you how!

On iPhone and iPad, tap the Media icon and choose “Insert From” to add a file.

Once you locate and insert the file, select it for additional actions. You can replace the file, view it in full screen mode, lock its position, or add a description.

On iPhone and iPad, you’ll notice the Markup icon in the toolbar. Tap it to display the markup tools like a pen, marker, and eraser.

Using markup, you can also jot down text with your finger on iPhone or scribble with an Apple Pencil on iPad.

You can also duplicate a board, make a board a favorite, hide the grid layout, export your board as a PDF, or print your entire Freeform board.

On iPhone, open the board and tap the three dots at the top, then select an action.

On iPad, tap the arrow next to the board name and choose an action.

To export or print on Mac, open a board, select “File” from the menu bar, and choose an option.

Good to know: learn how to share files between Mac and PC on your network.

If working on a board with someone else is what you need, Freeform provides you a simple way to collaborate.

Open the board and select the Share button on the top right.

Before you choose the sharing method, you can adjust the permissions at the top of the sharing pop-up window. Select “Only Invited People Can Edit.”

You’ll see access and permission settings along with an option to allow others to invite more people to the board. You’re able to adjust these settings later, too.

Choose a person to send the board to in Messages or pick an app like Mail, Slack, or another option, depending on your Share settings, to share the board.

After you share a board with others, you can manage the board permissions, invite others, or stop sharing the board.

Select the icon for your collaborator(s) in the top right and choose “Manage Shared Board.”

You can use the plus sign to invite more people, adjust the permissions near the bottom, and allow collaborators to add others. Additionally, you can copy a link to the board or stop sharing it with the options at the bottom of the settings.

When you open Freeform each time, you’ll see All Boards front and center so that you can select one to work on. On the left side on iPad or Mac or using the arrow on iPhone, you can also choose from Recents, Shared, and Favorites. If you’ve removed boards, you’ll also see Deleted Boards that remain accessible for up to 30 days.

Tip: are your shared Freeform boards not syncing properly? It could be a network issue. Discover how to fix Mac Wi-Fi problems and dropped connections by following our guide.

Unfortunately, there isn’t yet a Home screen or Notification Center Freeform widget available for iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Hopefully, this is a feature Apple introduces later.

You can uninstall the Freeform app on iOS or iPadOS just as you can any other app. However, as of this writing, you cannot uninstall the app on macOS.

Unfortunately, the Freeform app is not available on Windows at the time of this writing.

How To Use Smart Folders In Notes On Iphone, Ipad, And Mac

Having trouble organizing or finding the notes you need? With Smart Folders in Apple Notes, you can set up folders that automatically include specific notes. This gives you a great way to stay organized and on top of the notes you need most. So, let’s take a look at how you can create and use Smart Folders on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

What are Smart Folders in Notes?

As mentioned, you can create a Smart Folder that contains certain notes automatically. To do so, you set up a filter (condition) like a tag, date, or locked note. When the condition is met for a particular note, it pops into the Smart Folder. This gives you a convenient spot to quickly access the notes you need.

View all notes for the current day, each day of the week.

See pinned notes that contain specific tags.

Gather notes that were created or edited in a certain date range.

Access notes that you share with particular contacts.

See notes with specific types of attachments like photos, videos, or documents.

Collect notes that contain checklists, including checked or unchecked items.

If you’re ready to set up your own Smart Folder, let’s get to it!

How to create a Smart Folder in Notes on iPhone and iPad

Launch the Notes app on your iPhone.

Select an account and tap the New Folder icon on the bottom left.

Next to Include notes matching, use the drop-down box to pick All or Any depending on if you want to match all of the filters or just a few of them.

As an example, we’ll select Shared and With Specific People. At the top, below Enabled Filters, you’ll see an option to Select People.

You’ll then see the Smart Folder in your list for you to select and view the contents.

Convert a normal folder to a Smart Folder on iPhone and iPad

Maybe you have an ordinary folder in Notes that you’d like to turn into a Smart Folder. Once you convert the folder, you’ll see all notes inside contain a tag with the folder name.

Keep in mind you cannot convert a Smart Folder to an ordinary folder, so be sure you want to change the folder type before you follow these steps.

Open a simple folder and then tap the three dots at the top.

Pick Convert to Smart Folder.

Confirm by choosing Convert at the bottom or Cancel if you change your mind.

Edit a Smart Folder on iPhone and iPad

If you’d like to change your Smart Folder, you can edit it easily. This includes folders you convert to Smart Folders.

Select the folder and tap the three dots at the top.

You can then sort or group the notes within the folder or choose Edit Smart Folder for the other changes below.

To rename the folder, simply enter the new name.

To adjust the filter(s), pick Manage Smart Folder, make your changes, and tap Done to save them.

Delete a Smart Folder on iPhone and iPad

You can remove a Smart Folder you no longer use in Notes. The notes in the folder don’t get deleted but remain in their original location(s). It’s only the Smart Folder container that’s removed.

On the main Folders screen, either slide the folder name from right to left and tap the Delete icon (trash can) or long-press the folder and pick Delete.

How to create a Smart Folder in Notes on Mac

Like on an iPhone or iPad, you can create a Smart Folder in Notes on Mac easily, albeit with a few changes.

Launch the Notes app on Mac.

Give your Smart Folder a name at the top of the pop-up box. You should see the Make into a Smart Folder box checked for you.

Convert a folder to a Smart Folder on Mac

Start with one of the following:

Select the three dots to the right of the name and pick Convert to Smart Folder.

Edit a Smart Folder on Mac

After you create a Smart Folder, you can make adjustments to it just like on iPhone and iPad.

To change the filter(s) for the Smart Folder, pick Edit Smart Folder. Then, make your adjustments and select OK to save them.

Delete a Smart Folder on Mac

If you no longer want to use a Smart Folder you’ve created, you can delete it easily. Remember, this does not delete the folder’s notes.

Do one of the following:

Select the three dots to the right of the name and pick Delete Folder.

Work smarter with Smart Folders in Apple Notes!

The nice thing about Smart Folders in Notes, aside from quick access to the notes you want, is that it all happens without any effort. By taking a few moments to create a Smart Folder upfront, you can keep your notes organized without lifting another finger.

Over to you! Now that you know how to use a Smart Folder in Notes on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, are you going to create one, or have you already?

How To Fix Apple News App That Keeps Crashing On Iphone And Ipad

As soon as iOS 12 arrived, I installed it on my iPhone to give Apple News Plus a shot (you can change the App Store country/region if it’s unavailable in your country). Impressed with hundreds of magazines on various topics, I also subscribed to the news subscription service.

However, when I was about to explore the topics that I like reading, the Apple News app suddenly started crashing unexpectedly on my iPhone. The same problem persists in the iOS 14 update too. On some occasions, the app would immediately quit at launch. At other times it would close out while being used.

Initially, the crashing would occur only once in a while. However, the frequency drastically increased, and then there came a time when I just couldn’t use the news app at all.

I tried out some reliable tricks that fortunately worked in resolving the issue. Take a look as they may help you get rid of the problem.

1. Force quit Apple News app and relaunch It

Right, this sounds quite simple, and some of you might even wonder why I’ve suggested it. But let me tell you that it’s long been one of the most reliable tricks for fixing minor issues on iOS devices.

To force quit an app on your iOS device (with a Home button), just double press the Home button and then swipe up on the app card to close it.

To get it done on your iPhone X series or later and 2023 iPad Pro, swipe up from the Home bar and hold in the middle of the screen to bring up App Switcher. Then, simply swipe up on the app card to close it. Now, open the News app and see if it’s behaving normally.

2. Hard reboot your device

A hard reboot has been my go-to savior whenever my device seems to get stuck or appears to behave abnormally. So, why not give force restart a chance to show its reliability?

To hard reboot iPhone 8, 8 Plus/X or later and 2023 iPad Pro (12.9″ and 11″):

Press and release the volume up button.

Next, press and release the volume down button.

After your iOS device reboots, launch Apple News to find out if the problem is gone.

3. Try updating iOS on your device

Maybe the app is bogged down by some mysterious bugs, and an iOS update has the perfect fix for them. So, look for the update as and when it hits your device. As soon as it’s available (Settings → General → Software Update), download and install it.

4. Delete the app and reinstall it

If the problem still bothers you, it’s time to delete the app and reinstall it. This trick has worked for me in troubleshooting the issue on my device. So, I hope that luck will favor you as well.

Keep in mind, deleting the Apple News app will also wipe out its data. However, any documents and data stored in iCloud will remain safe.

Touch and hold the News app and then hit the “X” button. Now, tap Delete in the popup to confirm. Now, head over to the App Store, find the app, and reinstall it.

Assuming the problem is behind you…

I guess Lady Luck is finally smiling at you. Better late than never. Let me know which trick resolved the Apple News issues on your iOS device.

How To Hide Apple Music On Your Iphone, Ipod Touch, Ipad And Mac

Now that you’ve tried Apple Music thanks to Apple’s generous three-month free trial, you may have decided that the service just isn’t cut for you.

Though impossible to get rid of it completely, you can temporarily hide most of Apple Music’s aspects.

Our previous tutorial has taught you how to disconnect from Apple Music’s Connect feature and today’s how-to lays out the steps to hide Apple Music on your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and Mac and go back to the old way of enjoying music.

Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad.

Step 2: Navigate to the Music section.

Step 3: Flip the Show Apple Music switch to the OFF position.

Don’t worry, disabling Apple Music won’t remove songs you’ve downloaded for offline listening so long as iCloud Music Library is enabled.

Step 1: Open iTunes on your Mac or Windows PC.

Keep in mind that hiding Apple Music on your desktop will automatically disable iCloud Music Library, which will remove all Apple Music songs from your computer, including those downloaded for offline listening.

As hinted above, removing Apple Music changes your music listening experience and brings back the old way of navigating your music library in the Music app. Here’s precisely what happens after you disable Apple Music on your iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or Mac.

1. Apple Music disappears from search

With Apple Music enabled, the two buttons right below the Music app’s search field let you narrow the search scope to Apple Music and Your Library. Hiding Apple Music will also remove the Apple Music button from search and replace it with Radio.

Tip: In order to search across radio stations when Apple Music is enabled, simply run your search query across Apple Music. Then in your search results, scroll down until you see matches in the Stations subsection.

It’s not very intuitive but gets the job done.

2. For You, and Browse tabs get removed

Some folks will want to turn off Apple Music just to get their old tabs back. With Apple Music enabled, the Music app replaces some of the old tabs with the four new buttons: Library, For You, Browse, Radio, and Search.

To get rid of the For You, and Browse tabs, simply hide Apple Music. If you want to get rid of the Connect tab alone, consult this tutorial.

3. Offline songs remain in your iOS music library

When you hide Apple Music, songs you previously downloaded for offline listening will remain in the music library on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad. Should you also disable iCloud Music Library, offline tracks and Apple Music songs will get removed from the device, freeing up storage space.

iCloud Music Library can be switched on and off separately from Apple Music.

iCloud Music Library is similar to iCloud Photo Library: it stores your music and playlists in iCloud so you can access them from any device. Upon enabling the feature, your Mac will compare each song in your music library to iTunes’ vast catalog of thirty million songs, and counting.

Matched songs become immediately available to stream on all your devices with iCloud Music Library enabled. Non-matched songs get uploaded to iCloud first, after which you can stream them to any device.

Step 1: Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad.

Step 2: Navigate to the Music section.

Step 3: Flip the iCloud Music Library switch to the OFF position.

Step 1: Open iTunes on your Mac or Windows PC.

How To Use The Health App On Iphone

Health app is inbuilt on all iPhones since iOS 8. For the most part, it does not perform any function except collecting and combing all health data like steps, sleep, flights climbed, heart rate, etc. in a single handy place.

To gather this information, it uses the iPhone, Apple Watch, third-party fitness trackers, inbuilt Clock app, third-party apps, and other Apple’s HealthKit supported devices. There is much more to this! So, if you have just got an iPhone or have never used the Health app, here is how to start!

How to Set up Your Health Profile

Open the Health app. Tap on Summary and then your picture from the top-right.

Tap on Health Profile.

Tap on Edit.

Fill the correct details like age, blood type, Wheelchair, etc.

Finally, tap on Done to save the details.

How to View Health Data in Health App

You can effortlessly see your health data by launching the app and tapping Summary. Here you have Favorites, Highlights, and some more options. Under Favorites, you can see the data that matters most to you. Tap on Show All Health Data for more.

Inside the Health app, tap on Browse.

Under Health Categories, tap on one.

For example, if you tap on Activity, you can see recent as well as old data.

How to Edit Favorites in Health App to View Relevant Data

Tap on Summary in the Health app.

Tap on Edit next to Favorites.

Tap on the star icon for the desired options.

Finally, tap Done from the upper-right.

Now, all the selected data are shown under Favorites in the Summary tab. From here, it is convenient to look at them quickly.

Tip: Long-press on the Health app icon from the Home Screen and choose Summary.

In the Health app, tap on Browse.

Tap on a category. For example, Heart.

Tap on a subcategory—for example, Heart Rate.

From the top-right, tap on Add Data.

Fill in the details. Finally, tap Add.

How to Track Symptoms in Health App

The new iOS 13.6 update brings some pretty cool features, including a groundbreaking update in the Health app. Symptoms tracker is practical in the current era of the global pandemic. During the ongoing worldwide health crisis, if you’re looking forward to staying robust, let me show you how to add Symptoms in Health App.

Open Health app on your iPhone.

Select Browse from the bottom of the screen.

Scroll down and go into the Symptoms section.

Select the symptom you’re hit with.

Tap Add Data and select the degree of symptoms from the available options.

You can track thirty-nine types of different symptoms including the most common like Fever, Chills, Sore Throat, Coughing, Runny Nose, and Nausea. Each symptom is supported by information regarding the disease so that you can confirm the symptoms before adding the data.

The best thing about this feature is that you can track the level of symptoms based on five standards.

Not Present

Present

Mild

Moderate

Severe

Not least, the new update has also enabled the option of sharing and exporting your health data to third-party apps.

How to Set up your Medical ID on iPhone

Medical ID is a valuable option that I recommend you to have on your iPhone. We have a step by step post that shows you how to set up emergency Medical ID.

This information can even be accessed from the lock screen. It requires no passcode authentication. In case you are in a problem (say accident), people nearby can see this information and reach your emergency contacts, see about your existing medical conditions, allergies, know about your blood group, etc.

How to View Sleep Data in Health App

Bedtime is an inbuilt feature in the Clock app. Once you set up Bedtime alarm on your iPhone, you can see your sleep details inside the Health app under Browse → Sleep.

Further, with watchOS 7, Apple Watch also gets sleep tracking. This would make things even easier to record.

How to Select Apps That Share Information with Health App

Open the Health app and tap on Summary.

Tap on your profile picture from the top-right.

Under the Privacy heading, tap on Apps. Here you will see your installed apps that are compatible with the Health app. In case a particular app is not listed here, that means it is incompatible.

Tap on an app. Here you can enable or disable the desired categories.

How to Connect and View Health Records from Supported Institutions

The Health app also has the feature to connect with supported institutions and display your health records such as lab results, medications, immunizations, etc. in one place. To do this:

Launch the Health app and tap on the Summary tab. Next, tap on your profile picture from the top-right.

Under Accounts, tap on Health Records.

Tap on Get Started. Here you can search for your hospital, networks, or locations. You may also choose one from SUGGESTIONS.

Under AVAILABLE TO CONNECT, choose an option like Connect to Account.

Next, sign in using the login details of the choose healthcare provider. After this, you might have to wait for a minute or two for the information to be visible.

Once you have successfully added an institution, the iOS Health app will periodically update your health records automatically.

To view your health records, tap on Browse → tap on a category under Health Records.

How to Backup Health App Data

The health app has a significant amount of valuable information. It is recommended that you have it automatically backed up to iCloud. This will ensure that all your data is safe in switching to a new iPhone or resetting and restoring it. We have a quick post that shows you how to back up health data to iCloud.

How to Export Health Data From iPhone

Backup and export are different things. Backup is for your own safekeeping. Export is for situations you want to send this data to a doctor or take an in-depth look at yourself. You can even run your own calculations and see everything from a perspective that is different from the Health app. We have listed a couple of ways to export and import health data. Make sure you check it out.

The iOS App Store is filled with several incredible health apps. You can manually search for them, tap on the Apps tab, tap on See All next to Top Categories, and then choose Health & Fitness.

Additionally, the Health app also recommends and shows you helpful apps for some selected categories.

For this, tap on Browse and tap on a health category. For example, Sleep. Or, search for a category, like Water. Next, tap on the subcategory.

Finally, scroll down to see some compatible health apps for that category. Tap on the name if you want to learn more and download it.

Signing off…

This is how you can start using the iPhone Health app. Overall it is a well-built place to see all data in one place. The app also integrates well with the Apple Watch and lets you view your goals, exercise, stand data, heart rate data, Breathe app data, and much more from the Browse tab.

How To Use Dfu Mode On Iphone And Ipad

On rare occasions, your iPhone or iPad can run into serious issues—perhaps after a botched software update—that you can’t fix with standard troubleshooting. Before taking the device to an Apple Store, however, there’s one last thing you should try—resetting the iPhone or iPad in DFU (Device Firmware Update) Mode.

Table of Contents

If you have a malfunctioning iPhone or iPad, you must first update or reset it in Recovery Mode. Only resort to using DFU Mode in instances where the device continues to:

Resetting your iPhone or iPad in DFU Mode will permanently erase all data on it. If you have a recent iCloud or iTunes/Finder backup, you can restore the lost data after the reset procedure. You can also get back any data—such as photos and contacts—that you’ve set to sync with iCloud by signing into your Apple ID later on.

If the device shows up in iTunes/Finder when you connect it to a Mac or PC, it’s a good idea to create a fresh backup online or locally before entering and using DFU Mode on your iPhone.

You need a Mac or PC to enter and interact with DFU Mode—via the iTunes or Finder apps—on the iPhone or iPad. You should also have a compatible USB cable to connect the malfunctioning device to the computer physically.

Note: On the PC, you must download and install iTunes manually (if you haven’t already). The Mac comes with iTunes pre-installed, but it’s replaced by the Finder app starting with macOS Catalina.

However, there’s no reason to use a Mac or PC that you’ve previously used for backup or sync purposes. DFU Mode does not require access to any files on the iPhone or iPad, so any macOS or Windows 10 device should be good enough.

To enter DFU Mode on the iPhone or iPad, you must press various buttons that change depending on the device’s make and model. The steps below may appear confusing—and tricky—to time correctly at first, so you may fail a few times before getting them right.

Unlike Recovery Mode, the screen on your iPhone or iPad will remain blank in DFU Mode. If you see anything (such as a “Plug into Mac/PC” indicator) at the end of the steps, you must try again.

Note: The following instructions work on an iPhone or iPad regardless of whether it’s powered On or Off.

1. Connect your iPhone or iPad to a Mac or PC.

2. Open iTunes or the Finder app.

3. Press and quickly release the Volume Up button on the iPhone or iPad.

4. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button.

5. Quickly press and hold the Side/Top button until the screen turns black. Or, wait until the Apple logo shows up and disappears again.

6. Immediately hold down the Volume Down button without releasing the Side button.

7. Wait for 5 seconds.

8. Release the Side button but keep holding the Volume Down button.

9. Release the Volume Down button once the device shows up in iTunes or Finder.

1. Connect your iPhone or iPad to your Mac or PC.

2. Open iTunes or the Finder app.

3. Press and hold the iPhone’s Side and Volume Down buttons.

4. Wait for 8-10 seconds. In the meantime, the screen should turn off, or the Apple logo should show up and disappear.

5. Release the Side button while holding the Volume Down button.

6. Release the Volume Down button once you see the device in iTunes or Finder.

1. Connect your iPhone to your Mac or PC.

2. Open iTunes or the Finder app.

3. Press and hold the Side/Top and Home buttons on the iPhone or iPad.

4. Wait for 8-10 seconds.

4. Release the Side/Top button but keep holding down the Home button.

5. Release the Home button once you see the device in iTunes or Finder.

In DFU Mode, select Restore iPhone or Restore iPad to begin resetting the iPhone or iPad. iTunes/Finder will automatically download the latest version of the iOS/iPadOS system software (which typically amounts to 5-6GB) and install it on your iPhone or iPad. It will also restore the firmware.

Note: Suppose your iPhone or iPad automatically exits DFU mode during the download phase. In that case, you must perform the button presses all over again and wait for iTunes/Finder to finish the download.

Do not disconnect your iPhone or iPad while iTunes/Finder is actively re-installing the system software and firmware. That will make the device completely unusable.

If DFU mode completes successfully, select the Restore from iCloud Backup or the Restore from Mac or PC option while setting up your iPhone or iPad to restore data from an iCloud or iTunes/Finder backup.

If you want to exit DFU Mode without resetting your iPhone or iPad, you must force-restart the device.

1. Press and quickly release the Volume Up button.

2. Press and quickly release the Volume Down button.

3. Quickly press and hold the Side/Top button until you see the Apple logo on the screen.

Press and hold both the Side and Volume Down buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Press and hold both the Side/Top and the Home buttons until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

Performing a reset in DFU Mode does not guarantee that you’ll end up fixing your iPhone or iPad. Some issues—specifically those related to faulty hardware—are impossible to resolve by restoring the system software and firmware.
