Following the release of its new smartphone iPhone 5, Apple Inc has provided "tips and tricks", which is a sort of guidebook, to help the users explore the features of its new product.

These simple tips and tricks will help you travel from one destination to the next, get more done with Siri, and make the things you do every day even easier, said Apple official site.

"Tips and tricks" gives step by step instruction on the optimum use of Maps, Siri, photography and other features.

When Maps drops a pin on a location, you can get turn-by-turn directions to that location almost instantly. Just tap the Quick Route button next to the location's name, goes a tip on maps.
