Looking For Iphone Tips? Try These Tricks!

By Kassandra Ruckey


No smartphone is more popular or well known than the Apple iphone. There are a dozen things you can do with this phone, and a million apps it can help you with in your life. To get a handle on the greatest possibilities, read on into this article for ideas on using your iphone to its most convenient potential.

Choose a carrier before choosing an iphone. You might have your eye on a particular iphone. Before you rush out and get it, make sure that it is compatible with the carrier of your choosing. Shop around for a cell phone plan you can live with rather than making the decision over which iphone you like best.

Take a screenshot. Do you want to show friends a creepy text message your ex just sent you? You can take a quick screenshot whenever you want. Just press your home button, and your on/off switch at the same time. Your screen should flash, and your screenshot will go to your pictures.

Sometimes you want to see all of your appointments and notifications on your iphone at once. You can do this quickly with one gesture. Just take your finger, start at the top of your screen and swipe down. This will give you all your info for the day at a glance.

Learn how to scroll fast to the top of your big music libraries. If you've got a ton of music on your iphone, getting from the bottom to the top of it can be a lot of thumb swipes. Or you can simply click the clock at the top of your iphone. This automatically brings you back to the top of your music.

Save a wet iphone with white rice! If you are unfortunate enough to drop your beloved iphone in the toilet or a puddle, all is not lost. Do not turn the phone on. Dry it with a towel. Then, place the phone inside a zippered freezer bag filled with uncooked white rice. The next morning, there is a good chance your previously wet iphone will work again.

Always make sure that you set a password. This is very important for your iphone so that no one can break into your personal information and you can be as safe as possible. You are allowed to use four digits to create your password and always make sure to use something that you will remember.

Download the Safari application so that you can have maximum use of your phone. In addition to many other features it offers, Safari allows a user to call a contact without going back to the phone feature. For example, if you find a theater, you want to call online just click on the number, and it will call it for you.

Assign common numbers their own vibrations and rings. If you're someone who keeps their iphone on them at work or you simply receive a lot of calls, pulling out your phone and checking to see who's calling can be a real hassle. To save time, customize ringtones for individuals. You'll know without looking whether you want to even bother answering.

One of the things that you can do when you are typing a message on your iphone is to double tap the space bar, which will automatically add in a period for you. This is much more functional and practical than going to three different screens to find the period on your phone.

With all of the features available to the iphone there should be no doubt as to why this phone is a must buy. Invest into a superior phone today, and live a more comfortable life tomorrow. If you don't you'll essentially be left back in the stone ages with the old device you're carrying around.
