Simplify Your Life With Your Iphone And These Tips

So you are thinking of purchasing an iPhone but all this new technology is a bit overwhelming and confusing to you? Do you think it's too much for you? Don't worry! Here are some ideas to help you understand iPhone basics.

Dry rice can be used to dry an iPhone if it gets wet. Phones are commonly dropped in water from puddles or toilets. Don't risk damaging the phone by using a blow dryer. Instead, use a soft cloth to wipe off the phone, then place it in a rice-filled ziploc bag. After several hours, the rice will have absorbed all of the water.

To save battery power, decrease your iPhone's brightness. Simply go the settings option on your iPhone and select the brightness option. You will save your battery, which is especially helpful if you need a fully charged phone.

When surfing the web on the iPhone, you do not need to add ".com" to web addresses. You simply need to put in the main part of the address and the browser will take you to the correct site. Although this seems miniscule, this can save you a great amount of time over your iPhone's life.

Location-based reminders can be set by using Siri. Siri already gives reminders based on a pre-set time. Instead, you can request: "Siri, tell me to contact the office when I reach my home." So, when the phone realizes your location has changed, the relevant reminder can be issued. This is convenient for times that you want a reminder, but don't know exactly what time you'll need the reminder.

Buy yourself a screen protector. Without protection, your phone's screen will get nicked and scratched. Something as small as dirt can scratch the screen. A screen protector is affordable and a worthwhile investment.

You can take photos with the cord from your headphones. Begin by bringing the subject to be filmed into view. Once you're ready to take the picture, press the button that's on the cord. This will take the photograph. To save, do as you would normally do.

Did you just type something into iMessage that you probably shouldn't have? Has Auto Correct made you say something silly? Simply shake the iPhone and you can undo the message in an instant. This feature will undo everything you have recently typed. Go to the Settings menu to make sure this function is enabled.

You should now feel more knowledgeable about your iPhone. It is time to purchase an iPhone. Use what you have learned here to master your phone and you won't want to let it go.
