IOS 15
For Beginners
Starting something new can be daunting. Learning a skill or
mastering a new piece of hardware is tough. Even tougher if
you have no-one at hand to help. Conversely as the complexity
of our consumer technology increases, the size of the requisite
instruction manual decreases or in some cases it simply
disappears. At numerous times in our lives we have all been
“beginners”, there is no shame in that fact and rightly so. How
many times have you asked aloud, “What does this button do?”.
“Why doesn’t that work?”. “What do you mean it doesn’t do
that?”. “HELP!”. At the start of any new journey or adventure we
are all beginners but fortunately for you we are here to stand
beside you at every stage.
Over this extensive series of titles we will be looking in great
depth at the latest consumer electronics, software, hobbies and
trends out of the box! We will guide you step-by-step through
using all aspects of the technology that you may have been
previously apprehensive at attempting. Let our expert guide help
you build your technology understanding and skills, taking you
from a novice to a confident and experienced user.
Over the page our journey begins. We would wish you luck but
we're sure with our support you won't need it.

Buttons and Ports
> On Your iPhone
What's where on your iPhone? Here we show you the physical layout of the
range of iPhones currently on sale. Whether you have a brand new iPhone, or
an older iPhone with a Home button, this guide shows you what's where.
Full Screen iPhones Models
This part of the iPhone contains much of
Apple’s latest technologies. In the high-end
iPhones, an infrared camera, flood illuminator,
Proximity sensor, Ambient light sensor and Dot
projector are all present; alongside a speaker,
microphone and front camera. The latter is
utilised by the Face ID feature.
This is the Ring/Silent switch. Click it to turn
Silent Mode on and off.
These are the volume buttons. The upper
3 one increases the volume, and the lower
button lowers it. In Apple’s Camera app, and
many third-party photography apps, you can also
use the volume buttons to take a photo, instead of
the on-screen shutter button.
This is the side button. On some iPhones, this
button is located on the top instead of on the
side. It's a multi-function button that can summon
Siri, launch Face ID, access Apple Pay and more.
This is the SIM tray. Push a SIM tray ejector
tool, or a straightened paper clip, into the
small hole at the bottom to eject the tray so you
can insert, remove or replace the SIM card you
get from your mobile phone provider.
The screen is a high-resolution display
measuring between 5.4” and 6.5”
depending on your iPhone model. They all offer
True Tone and a wide colour display, with a great
range of colours available. Viewing angles are
great too, so even if you're looking at it off-centre,
the colours don't shift.
To the base of the latest iPhones range
7 you will find the Lightning Connector/audio
EarPods connection port, built-in microphone
and built-in stereo speakers. Older iPhones
might have a 3.5mm earphones port here too.

The rear-facing camera, flash and mic.
The specs of the camera, including the
number of lenses, depends on the model.
The front-facing camera for selfies and
FaceTime.
Press and hold this button to turn
your iPhone on and off, or press it to
lock the screen.
The Ring/Silent switch. Click it to
activate and switch off Silent Mode.

These buttons control the volume, and
let you take pictures in camera apps.
The screen on older iPhones doesn't
reach the top or bottom of the phone.
7 The Home button. Press it to get
back to the Home screen, and place
your finger on it to use the Touch ID
fingerprint reader.
The Lightning port, for connectivity
and charging.

The Lightning Connector
Current iPhones use a Lightning
connector for charging, syncing, and
(on the latest iPhones) for connecting
cabled earbuds using an adapter.
Plus/Max Sizes
Some iPhone models come in two
sizes: a large version, known as the
Plus or the Max, and a regular version
that lacks this suffix. The larger-sized
iPhones, known as ‘phablets’, are
halfway between a phone and a tablet.
