Other Share your useful scenarios for Apple functions

Ok, so we are way ahead of the past Apple, where Iphones could not bluetooth photo to each other.
Share your stories of using iphone functions that are hidden and you didn't think they are useful.

I will start:
1) Significant locations in GPS settings - I never knew how and why it is needed until 1 day. I forgot to switch it off on my new phone and it kind of tracked that i always visit Meijer grocery. The cool feature is it shows me my mperks bar code that gives me discount and it pops up on the lock screen as notification. I click it once and scan and get my discounts.
If switched off, it no longer appears when i visit the store, so i have to pull it from the apple wallet using 3-5 movements instead of 1.
It also disappears after you exit the store to declutter your lock screen.

Significant location works with CarPlay really well. Most of the times I don’t even have to type where I need to go. As long as you have some sort of routine, the minute your phone gets connected to CarPlay, you’re already promoted for accepting your destination. Of course it also pulls data from your calendar and email etc. to know if you were meant to be going somewhere.

I use the Backtap feature within Accessibility to quickly call taking screenshot and another shortcut that I maintain to log my Shisha and alcoholic intake.
