If you're like me, you like to be notified of breaking news or weather alerts. But sometimes, those alerts can get overwhelming, especially if you have more than one news or weather app.

Fortunately, iOS has a way to manage each alert and how it is shown on the screen.

Here's how:

Go to Settings > Notifications.
Scroll down and select each app you wish to change.
Here's where you can adjust how the notifications are shown, and other information.
That's it.

How to Save Webpage(s) on an iPhone or iPad

Now that some people seem to be using their iPhone more than a regular Mac or even an iPad, you may come across a situation that you'll need to save a webpage as a PDF to either file, or send to another user. Fortunately, with iOS, this is easier than you may think.

Go in to Safari as normal.
Go to a webpage you wish to save.
On the toolbar (bottom bar) find the icon with a square and an up arrow in the middle of it (the share menu).
When that menu pops up, choose the "options" choice at the top of the menu.
In the Send As area, tap PDF.
Now select the Save To Files option from the Share Sheet.
Tap Save.
Now you can access the file by going into the Files App in iOS.
That's it.
