Phone manufacturers are competing in diversifying the features in their devices. However, few people know about the existence of some of them. An example of such a "hidden feature" is shaking an iPhone.

New smartphone models and system updates can leave you feeling dizzy. Manufacturers strive to invent ever new conveniences, which can surprise even tech savants. However, sometimes a seemingly simple solution is not used at all, because no one knows about its existence.
Apple has prepared an interesting feature for its customers. It turns out that iPhones respond not only to touch on the screen, but also to movement. While typing on this type of smartphone, you can shake it.
What happens when you shake an iPhone? Suddenly, a message appears on the screen asking the user if he wants to undo the entry of a certain phrase. However, the decision should be made by a traditional click.
The issue gets a bit more complicated with Android phones. For these devices, everything depends on the manufacturer. In the case of Motorola smartphones, shaking affects the operation of the flashlight and launching of the camera. People who do not own a motion-operated phone can use the Shake Me application.
Sometimes, applications themselves use shaking the phone. It is this device motion that is a popular way of reporting errors in Microsoft (Office), Facebook, and Google (Maps). Instagram has also recently followed in their footsteps.
