Finding and Watching Video
iPhone is a great way to enjoy video content as well, such as movies or TV shows, while you’re on the move. Like music and other content, the first step is to find the video you want to watch. Then you use iPhone’s video tools to watch that video.
>>>step-by-step: Finding Video
Finding video content on iPhone is similar to finding the other kinds of content we’ve already discussed.
- On the Home screen, press the iPod button.
- Press Videos. The Videos screen appears, showing you the video content on iPhone.
- Scroll the screen to see all the video content, which is organized by type, such as Movies, TV Shows, and Music Videos. Content you haven’t watched yet is marked with a blue dot.
- To watch a movie, an episode of a TV series, or a music video, press it and rotate the iPhone clockwise or counter-clockwise. The screen rotates, and the content begins to play.
- Watch and control the video; see the next section for details of controlling video.
