Apple has released an “iPhone 5s Tips and Tricks” section on its web site, detailing the particularities of some key features, such as Photography, Siri, Mail, and even the Settings panel.

The “iPhone 5s Tips and Tricks" section is not exactly the treasure trove of enlightenment, but it does lay out all the key functions of the phone for newcomers, as well as for experienced users getting lost in the iOS 7 makeover.

The tutorial starts with Photography, which seems to be the most popular feature of the iPhone nowadays, with Apple offering tips on sharing multiple photos, using Panorama, and Burst mode.

The document then moves on to Gestures (with tips on managing email and invoking Spotlight search), Maps (Quick Route, Flyover, sharing pins), Siri, Calendar, the Music app (playlists, radio stations, buying from iTunes Radio), Mail, Safari, wireless, Settings, and Compass.

For a more detailed overview of all the features in iOS 7, Apple refers customers to the full iPhone User Guide (located on the iPhone itself).
