You can use your iPhone to find laundry instructions for your clothesFor most people, washing and sorting laundry can feel like a minefield as there are endless things to consider, such as the temperature you need to set on your washing machines so your delicate garment won't get damaged, or whether you need to tumble dry, or line dry.
But for this amazing trick, your iPhone can tell you what you need to do straight away so you won't end up wasting time figuring out how to properly wash your clothes. In a TikTok video shared to her @wtfaleisa account, the woman explains how to decode your clothing tags in a few simple steps. All you need to do is open your camera app and take a picture of a label.
After capturing the picture, tap on the image in the bottom left and then the icon of the 'i' in a circle next to the delete bin icon. You'll notice a 'Look up laundry care' option, which will read out everything you need to know. The feature works if you have the latest iOS 17 update on your phone.
