Quick tip of the day

There’s a TikTok video going viral with a great iPhone trick. Say you answer the phone and it’s someone you know but you don’t really want to talk to them. Rather than giving some lame excuse, keep talking as normal. 

Here’s where the trick comes in: 

  • During the call, pull up your iPhone’s quick settings and put your phone into Airplane mode.
  • The person on the other end of the call will see “Call Failed” rather than “Call Ended.”

👋 Just like that, you’re free without hurting anyone’s feelings.

Do what I did and support your heart health with delicious SuperBeets chews!
