how do you add accent marks to letters as you’re typing on your iPhone? It’s simple, actually.
Tap and hold a specific letter (say, the letter “a”) and a
pop-up menu of accent marks will appear—everything from acute (“á”) and grave
(“à”) accents to umlauts (“ä”) and tildes (“ã”).
Note: This tip works for the iPad and iPod Touch, as
well.
How do you select the accent mark you want? The trick is to
keep holding the letter key you first tapped, then slide your fingertip to the
correct symbol and release.
If you lift your finger from the touchscreen keypad and then try
to tap the accent-mark key, the menu of accent marks will disappear before you
can tap it.
Bonus tip
Tapping and holding a key isn’t just for typing accent marks; it’ll also work
for symbol keys. Tap and hold the dollar sign, for example, and you’ll get a
menu with signs for the yen (“¥”), the pound (“£”), the euro (“€”), and the
cent (“¢”).
