Summary | Exactly ten years ago Steve Jobs presented the first iPhone - a pioneer among smartphones. In the past ten years we saw an unprecedented change in communication. With technological innovation our digital communication has become more and more multimodal. The general tone has become quicker, more informal, and contains emojis. Social media are taking over what used to be social hobbies like sports clubs and such. It remains to be seen whether future generations will consider the broad surveillance and big data as boon or bane.

Summary | The iPhone has many features that you may not know about. You can create shortcuts to type your favorite emojis rather than search them manually on the keyboard. With a simple touch of the home button you can reorganize your screen so that when using your iPhone one-handedly even smaller hands can reach all content that would usually be at the top of the display.You can have Siri acoustically announce who is calling. To improve your selfies you can use the volume button on your headphones to take a picture from afar. Also, to avoid anxiety from lots of app notifications you can just deactivate those.
