Find The Iphone To Be Complicating? Read On

By Norberto Steeneck


You may be confused if you have a regular old cell phone. There are a number of seemingly similar smartphones on the market today. It is hard to make a decision, particularly when you will probably have the device for quite a long time. There is, though, one type of phone that has the world talking: the iphone. The following article will explain the ways in which it's so much better.

Synchronize your phone and your planner. You will be able to see all reminders from your computer on your phone. Keep them synchronized, or you may run into trouble.

You can find any place with your iphone. When you are trying to find a certain location, you can use the map function on your iphone. Bookmark the map for ease of use.

In order to mark one of your emails as unread through your iphone, you must locate the command for it because it isn't on there by default. Go to Details, then select the Unread feature. When you come back to your inbox, the e-mail will show up as unread.

Use shortcuts for words, to type faster on your iphone. Visit "settings", find "general", hit "keyboard", then add a new shortcut. By using acronyms or abbreviations, you can create shortcuts for more common words or phrases you type often. When you use these shortcuts, the full phrases or words that you designated will be automatically inserted.

After typing a sentence into your iPhone's messaging app, press the space bar twice, quickly. That will cause a period and additional space to be automatically added. You won't need to use the "123" keyboard by doing this, which will save you time.

When the iphone screen freezes, see if holding your "home" button for a span of five seconds makes a difference. Hopefully, this will cause the phone to reboot. If this does not work, press the power button and "home" button for 12 seconds. Only use the second reboot method if the first method will not produce any results.

Are you wanting to back up contacts on your iphone? If so, then there is a free app that can do this. iDrive Lite takes all of the hard work out of contact backup and sharing. The app is free as long as your iphone is updated.

Sometimes the AutoCorrect suggestion feature can become a nuisance. When you're writing and it keeps popping up, don't hit "X" to get rid of it. By tapping on any other part of the screen, you can dismiss the suggestion box automatically.

Stay linked to your circle of friends by using your iphone for social media purposes. You can update your profiles from any location with an iphone on Facebook, Twitter and other sites. You can also read all of your friends' news and stay on top of trends using your favorite social media apps.

Are you messaging the same people frequently? Save them to the phone in your favorites. The favorites and recent calls lists can be utilized to call and text people quickly. There is a tiny arrow next to the contact where you can select text message by tapping it. This is great for quickly finding out about all the recent calls and texts that you just missed.

Be prudent about storing large movie files on your iphone. Full motion pictures take approximately 1G of space. If you have more than one on your phone it can cause websites to crash. It can also prevent many of your apps from operating the way they are supposed to.

Snap better photos by using your headset's volume button rather than the button on the phone itself. It is possible to set the phone to utilize this button so that shaking is reduced. You can also take pictures of yourself with the headset cord.

Although you have your iphone guarantee in a handy place, it is also a good idea to invest in an Apple Care Plan. Your guarantee, along with some simple insurance, should protect you in the event that something happens to your phone. Protect your iphone from damage caused by dropping it by using a protective case.

Speed up your messaging with this trick. When a dictionary suggestion appears that is not the word you want, make it disappear with a tap to any part of the screen. You do not have to click on the x displayed next to the word to dismiss it.

As discussed previously, nearly everyone and their grandmother are falling in love with the iphone. No you are aware of all the great features that an iphone has to offer, apply the knowledge you have gained from this article to get the most out of it.
