Everything IPhone: Tips, Tricks, Techniques And Advice

By Magali Schardt


The iPhone is an incredibly versatile device. You can use the iPhone for everything from entertainment to personal organization. This means there are a multitude of ways to use the iPhone to best advantage in your life. Try the tips in the article to help you master the device.

As an iPhone owner, be sure to utilize all of the phone's multimedia capabilities. You can use the iPhone to view your favorite movie or television show.

Be gentle with your iPhone charging/syncing cable, as it can be easily damaged when handled roughly. Always try to disconnect this cord as gently as possible from the iPhone and power outlet. Your cord should last about a year if you take good care of it.

An iPhone's notification feature can become annoying. You'll find it easy to disable them. First, go to settings, and then go to notifications. You will probably find a bunch of apps in the "Notification Center" which you do not need. Remove them. This will also help your battery last longer.

Have you ever been disappointed that you could not get your camera up in time to get a perfect shot? Give this tip a try. Tap your Home button two times quickly if your screen is locked. A camera icon will appear at the bottom of your screen after you do this. Touch this button in order to enable the camera automatically.

Make messaging faster if you use this trick. If you prefer not to insert the word suggested by the dictionary while texting, tap your finger anywhere on your iPhone's screen; this dismisses the suggestion. You do not have to tap the "x" that follows the suggested word.

One of the most beloved features of the iPhone is the ability to take pictures. After a while, the number of photos can really add up. Use the iPhone's built-in album feature to keep your photos organized and easy to find. That is going to help you a lot when you have to find a particular photo.

While you are using the Internet on your iPhone, phone calls are just one touch away. Let's say you want to find a dry cleaner. When locating the number, you don't have to use the phone component to call them. Instead, tap on the phone number, and the call will immediately connect.

You can go back to the beginning of a web page or app pretty easily if you know how. Instead, you can touch the gray status bar near the top of the screen; this will automatically take you to the topmost area of the webpage.

Get comfortable with your iPhone by fiddling around with it. Using your phone all the time will allow you to become familiar with it more and more. Just dedicate a good 30 minutes every day towards using your iPhone, and you should get the hang of it in a week or two.

A great way to communicate via your iPhone is FaceTime. This feature gives you the option to see whoever you're having a conversation with. The FaceTime button can be found next to the name of the person in your contacts. If you hit it, you'll start a video chat with the other person.

If you like to see the weather forecast, you can simply swipe a finger to access current conditions as well as six-day outlooks. You can access weather information just by tapping the weather bar of the notifications screen.

iPhone newbies are frequently bowled over by everything they can use the device to do. However, many new users don't know all of the phone's potential. By utilizing the above information, you can obtain the most benefit out of your phone.
