With incoming call, users can choose to ring if there is a second call from the same person for 3 minutes, or only receive calls from numbers in favorites list, other numbers when calling will receive notification. "Phone is busy". 

2. Change the look of incoming calls.

Starting with iOS 14, the screen for incoming calls has been minimized while other apps are active. Some people find it annoying that the new interface causes them to accidentally miss a call by swiping up to dismiss like normal notifications.

To switch the call view to full screen as it was, go to Settings> Phone> Incoming calls> select Full screen.

If you regularly play games, do not use the incoming call screen because it may cause interruption.

3. Show notification content on lock screen.

By default, iPhones with Face ID hide the lock screen notification content, only visible when scanning a user's face.

If you want to turn this off, go to Settings> Notifications> Show Preview> select Always.

4. Make the home screen tidy.

iOS 14 added the feature of not showing new app icons installed on the home screen. To enable this option, go to Settings> Home screen> select App Library Only.

The newly installed application will now appear in the "Recently Added" section of the App Library screen. If you still want to show the newly installed app to the home screen, select Add to home screen.

5. Set the wallpaper according to a light / dark theme.

Go to Settings> Wallpaper> enable the Dark theme dim wallpaper option. At this point, the wallpaper will darken if the iPhone activates the dark theme, highlighting widgets and icons.

Users can go to Select new wallpaper and then choose an image with a dark mode (half-white, half-black circle icon). These wallpapers will automatically change the light / dark mode based on the look and feel enabled. 

6. Make the text on the screen easier to read.

Go to Settings> Display & Brightness> Font size, then drag the slider to adjust the font size for best readability.

Users can turn on the option Bold to see the text better. 

7. Turn off the auto-brightness feature.

By default, the iPhone adjusts the screen brightness based on its surroundings. You can disable this feature by

Go to Settings> Ease of Access> Display & Font Size> turn off the Auto Brightness option.

Screen brightness will now be adjusted manually by turning on Control Center, or going to Settings> Display & Brightness> dragging the Brightness slider.

10. Unlock iPhone while wearing a mask.

The iOS 14.5 version adds the option to use the Apple Watch to unlock the iPhone when the user wears a mask.

Go to Settings> Face ID & Passcode> Unlock with Apple Watch> choose which watch you want to use.

With this option enabled, the iPhone will automatically unlock when the user wears the Apple Watch. Note that Apple Watch needs to be unlocked and wrist motion detection enabled.

11. Turn off 5G when not needed.

iPhone 12 is the first Apple smartphone to support 5G. However, not all areas have 5G coverage, or users need to turn on often. If not necessary, iPhone 12 users can turn off 5G mode by

Go to Settings> Cellular> Cellular data options> Voice & data, then select LTE.
