iPhone Basics: Typing Special Characters

Everyone knows that iPhone's keyboard comes with a full set of QWERTY keys, numbers, and punctuation, but you may not have realized that there's even more. Hidden underneath many of the keys are special character variations. To bring up a special character, simply tap and hold for a moment and select from the pop-up menu. For example, if you'd like to type café, simply type caf, hold E, and choose É from the menu.

There are tons of other special characters hidden behind both alphabetical keys and punctuation keys. Check 'em out!
