Millions of people have iPhones, but there could be some useful tools you're unaware of that can make life just a little easier.
So TikToker Katarina Mogus (@katamogz) has given some nifty tips and tricks on some iPhone hacks you should know about that can improve your day-to-day, The Sunreported.
Here are some of the signature hacks (pardon the pun) that you should know about:
Scanning documents on iPhone
When it comes to scanning a document, converting a paper version into a digital one can be a bit of a faff - but that is where the iPhone's hidden feature comes in and eradicates this problem, making signing documents a much more efficient process.
All you need is the built-in document scanner, and also the ability to save your own signature.

Firstly, you begin by opening the Notes app on your iPhone and then select create a new note.
At the bottom of the note, there should be a bar of different symbols - click on the plus one which should show a number of different options where one of them at the top should say "Scan Documents."

Once you select this, your camera will open where you should take a photo of the signature you want to be scanned, to help select the correct area the corners of the document can be adjusted with colour editing - colour, black and white or greyscale.
Then when you're satisfied with the options you have chosen - take the snap.
Your iPhone can then convert the photo of the signature into a document that looks like it's fresh out of the photocopier and to keep this, you simply save the note it was created in.
Adding a signature to documents on iPhone
So you want the ease of adding a signature into a document, what's next?
Start by opening up the scanned document you want to be signed.
Get to the document editor and in the bottom left there should be a plus symbol to select.
Next click the Signature button option which enables you to squiggle your signature with your finger to add to your PDF document.
