How to turn-on Caps Lock on your iPhone?
Easily enable Caps Lock on your iPhone for easy typing.
With that touch keyboard some people would certainly find it difficult to type things up on their iPhone. There is nothing much we can do other than to suggest to switch to the landscape mode as much as it’s available.
But, irrespective of the keyboard (or screen) layout one thing that annoys people the most is the usage of the Caps Lock. iPhone does a pretty good job of turning on the Caps Lock for the first character of a sentence. But if you have to type a lengthy sentence on capital letters you would rather prefer to turn the Caps Lock on and type without holding on the Caps Lock key for each character.
Start by tapping on the Settings icon.

Tap on the “General” option.

Once in the “General” settings page tap on the “Keyboard” option.

Make sure to turn ON “Enable Caps Lock” option.

Once enabled, now when you get the soft keyboard for typing DOUBLE-TAP the Shift key (upward arrow) and it will turn to blue color once enabled. With the blue colored Shift key you can now start typing in capital letters. When you don’t need the Caps Lock anymore just tap the Shift key once more and it will go back to its original state.
I personally find enabling the Caps Lock key useful when it comes to typing lengthy sentences on capital letters and when keying in passwords with capital letters. I hope you find this tip useful too.
