TIP! The iPhone’s connection cable can take damage easily if you aren’t careful with it. Whenever you need to unplug this cord, make sure you do it very gently.

iPhone Learning

Many people own and enjoy an iphone, but few of them have really learned how to master it and put all of its amazing technology to work for them. To get the most from your iphone, consult the article below.

TIP! You can set reminders based on location with your iPhone. Instead of the time-based reminders, you can use location-based reminders.

Use your phone to send pictures to your family and friends. You have two easy options for accomplishing this. After saving the picture, add it onto an email, or upload it to your Facebook profile.

TIP! Add a cool ringtone to make your iPhone personalized. Don’t be like everyone else and use standard ringtones.

If you lose your iphone, the free Find My iphone app can assist you in locating it on a map. Of course, you must download the app and sign up first. The app allows a loud ring tone to sound, or a visual message to be displayed, so that you can locate your missing phone around the house or office. You can simply delete or lock any information on the phone if you think it has been stolen.

TIP! If your iPhone freezes up and does not restart by pressing the “sleep/wake” button, a hard reset will fix the problem. Simultaneously hold the button and the Home key.

Try to refrain from downloading a large amount of movies on your device. A complete feature film can eat up roughly 1g of room. Having just one is too much, and more than that will surely cause problems with your phone’s internet use. It might also stop apps from working as well as they could.

iPhone Camera Icon

TIP! If you want to type faster on your iPhone, program in word shortcuts. It is under the new shortcut menu, which can be found in the settings.

Have you ever lost out on snapping a great photo because the camera app takes too much time to pop up? This shortcut will help you to save a lot of time and get all the pictures you desire. With the screen locked, rapidly press the Home button a couple times. Look for the camera icon at the screen bottom. Touch this camera icon and you will be able to use your iphone as a camera right away.

TIP! There is no need to tap the ‘X’ button to waive the iPhone’s suggestions. This makes it easier and more efficient to use your phone to send emails or texts.

You can save some time when typing on your iphone. Go to settings, then keyboard, then to add shortcut. Program in the words and phrases that you use frequently. This programming will increase your typing speed by allowing you to avoid the task of typing those commonly used phrases.

TIP! Here’s a tip for saving time when it comes to your iPhone’s suggested words function. If your phone gives you a suggestion, all you need to do is tap outside of the suggestion box, and it will disappear, so that you are no longer bothered by it.

When typing in a sentence with your iphone, simply double tap the space bar at the end of your sentence. Adding a period this way can save a lot of time and effort. That helps you avoid moving to a number keyboard and saves time.

TIP! When using Safari, you can make a phone call with a single tap. For example, you may need a dry cleaner, so you begin searching the Internet for one located near you.

One great thing to do with your iphone is to use the Facebook app. Many people already know this, but there are some who are unaware of the phone’s ability to use Facebook.

TIP! Press cancel to save messages to work on later. You will be asked if you want to Save, Don’t Save, or Cancel.

An iphone is a great technological device that can simplify your everyday life, along with so many other things, but knowing what options are available is key to getting the most out of the phone. Now, you just need to start using the tips you have read here to get the most from your iphone.
