    for years I hit C and retyped the whole number every time I made a typo in teh iPhone Calculator 😤 turns out theres a hidden backspace.

    swipe left or right across the number display at teh top. each swipe deletes teh last digit you typed... thats it.. lol no more starting over because you typed 1250 instead of 125.

    another small one: long-press teh result to copy it, sooo u can paste it into a message, newer iOS versions also added a viisble delete button, but teh swipe is still my favorite.

    newer iOS releases redesigned the Calculator and added a backspace button, but teh swipe gesture still works on many versions.

    ok so rotate ur iPhone sideways with rotation lock off to reveal the scientific calculator on many iOS versions.
