Iphone Advice Everyone Needs To Know About

By Arnold Miranda


The iPhone has become an indispensable piece of electronics for many owners in modern times. However, using one to the utmost ability and maximizing its potential can prove challenging. For tips, tricks and techniques on how to make the very most of your iPhone, keep reading into the following paragraphs.

To increase your storage space on your iPhone, take advantage of iCloud. This will only take you a few minutes to set up, and it can triple or quadruple the amount of space that is made available. This is especially useful if you store a lot of photographs or a big music library on your phone.

Avoid putting too many apps on your phone. While it can be tempting to load up your device, remember that most users wind up deleting the majority of the apps they add. It can be a costly addiction and it may also slow down your device, particularly when the apps start updating.

If your iPhone uses iOS4 and up, you can use it as a wireless router. First, access General Settings, then locate the Network button. From this screen, simply tap Set Up Personal Hotspot. You will be asked to confirm the change by your service provider. Now you can connect your iPod, computer or other device to your iPhone's wireless connection.

Use your iphone to read books. Just like a Kindle or an Ipad, the iphone has the capability to allow you to read e-books. Again, like the other options, you will likely have to pay for some of them, but fortunately, you can store them on your iphone as well, so they will be yours forever.

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.

Go to your camera quickly when your phone is locked. A good photo opportunity can come and go in the breadth of a heartbeat. To avoid missing out on such an opportunity, just give your iphone's home button two quick taps. This should immediately bring up your camera or the icon for it.

To get the most from Siri, use this tip to assign nicknames and relationships for each of your contacts. For example, you can tell Siri, "Jane Johnson is my mother." Siri will then request confirmation to link this information to Jane's contact number. Now, you can tell Siri to "Call Mom," and she will automatically bring up your mother's phone number.

Don't forget to check for updates to your applications. You may think that once you download an app, that's the end of it. Make sure you check the update section of your App Store or you risk missing bug fixes or even extra features that app developers add after the app has been released.

If you own an iPhone, you know just how powerful a tool it can be in making your life easier to deal with. Apply what you have learned from this article to get the most out of your iPhone as you carry it with you throughout your daily life and schedule.
