From a 5-click SOS trick to being able to track flights through iMessage, there’s more than meets the eye when you use an iPhone.
This is even true of the keyboard. Many iPhone users think they know their way around the keyboard, especially when it comes to adding special characters such as question or exclamation marks.

One TikTok video has revealed that the iPhone actually has a hidden character menu featuring some of the rarer symbols on a phone, such as a degree symbol or different currencies.

Long-pressing the number ‘0’ will let you type a degrees symbol, or long-pressing a dollar or Euro symbol will let you find the icon for cents.
