The Apple iPhone has been popular for some time. You may not realize why that is, until you have an iPhone of your own. The iPhone is a wonderful way for you to communicate with others, but it does so much more. Here are just a few tricks and tips to unlock all of the magic in your new iPhone.
If you’ve gotten your iphone wet, refrain from turning it on. Use a towel to dry it, and then put it in a sealed plastic bag of dry, white rice. Let it sit overnight. If it’s dry the next morning, turn it on, and you just may find it working again.
Save time by omitting the ‘WWW’ and ‘.com’ from the URL while using your iPhone to browse online. Safari will direct you to the website you want with only the main address words. It might not seem like that much of a time-saver, but there is no reason to type it if you don’t have too.
Take a screen shot on your iPhone. Do you want to capture a shot of your screen? You can quickly push down the Home button, and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time, and then release it. You should hear a camera sound. This will take a picture of whatever is on your screen, and it can be found in your picture file.
To make your favorite website a little faster and a whole lot easier, set it as your homepage. Although you can’t do this as smoothly as you can in Safari on the Mac, you can access your preferred page easily with just one extra tap. Add the page to your bookmark’s list, and then make sure it is at the top of the list. That way, you are only a couple of taps away from your favorite page.
The iPhone is a great tool for so many different things. You can listen to music, get applications that make your life easier, and call your friends and family. The tips in this article are just the tip of the iceberg. Use them to get more familiar with your phone, and then find out what else you can learn.
