Imagine talking to someone from 30 years ago and telling them, \u201cOne day, you will have an all-powerful computer that fits in the palm of your hand that can perform countless tasks and it doesn\u2019t even come with an instruction manual.\u201d<\/p>\n

They\u2019d never believe you.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s true. For the most part, when we get a new smartphone, they\u2019re so intuitive, we don\u2019t have to do much searching around to figure out how to use it.<\/p>\n

However, that means sometimes cool little features go unnoticed.<\/p>\n

Atlanta food blogger Krissy Brierre-Davis recently discovered a new trick on her iPhone that completely blew her mind: if you click and hold anywhere on the keyboard it turns into a trackpad.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI thought I was an idiot for never having discovered this gem myself,\u201d she told BuzzFeed News. \u201cMy mind was blown. Literally. I could never get the cursor to go where I wanted. I\u2019ve even deleted a full sentence just to avoid having to go back and change a mistake in a word.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a quick\u00a0tutorial from tech blogger Lance Ulanoff:<\/p>\n

Of course, some nerds out there were quick to point out the feature has been around for over three years.<\/p>\n

But most people had no idea about the feature either.<\/p>\n
