IOS's "magnifying glass" App,Ninety percent of people have not used it,Some friends also deleted it directly,Or put it in the folder to eat ashes,Today I'm going to tell you about its use,You have to always believe in Apple,Each of its pre-installed apps has a reason for existence,Unlike a large number of ad spam apps pre-installed on Android phones。
"Magnifying glass", as the name suggests, is used to magnify objects, for users with poor eyesight, if you really think so, it is a big mistake, IPhone's magnifying glass, in addition to the most basic magnifying function, it can also bring substantial convenience to people with poor eyesight, blindness and other visual impairments.
