Tips On How To Maximize Your IPhone

The iPhone seems to have an unlimited number of available apps. In addition, this phone can provide you with many ways of easing your life, as long as you know some knowledge. The basics in the article below will tell you what you need to know to start making every day headache-free.

Icons on the bottom of your screen can be changed when you are listening to your favorite music. Choose settings and go to the option to 'add more icons'. Multiple icon options are available, and allow you to access your favorite music different ways.

Tap cancel to save an email message. A popup will appear and ask you if you want to save, delete or cancel the operation. When you select the save option, your message will be placed into the Drafts folder which will allow you to continue writing your message later. If you do not already have a folder for Drafts, the phone will automatically create one for you.

Dry out your wet iPhone with uncooked white rice. Life happens and more than likely your phone will fall into some water at one point or another. Wipe off your iPhone and then place it into a rice-filled bag. After a number of hours, or overnight, your phone should be dry.

Make sure that you do not expose your iPhone to direct sunlight for long periods of time. If your phone is in direct sunlight for an extended amount of time it is being put at risk for being completely ruined. The battery and other circuitry are only rated for normal temperature conditions.

Do not waste time with suggested words on your iPhone. Tap anywhere while you are typing to eliminate the suggested spelling box. Now you do not have to press 'x' every time.

Has a good opportunity to take a picture passed you by because you couldn't get to the camera app quickly enough? Here is a simple solution. While you have the screen locked, quickly touch Home button two times. You should see a small camera icon near the bottom of the screen. Tap this button to automatically enable your camera.

Remember to update the phone as updates become available. This will allow you to have fixes for software and updates for your phone. You will also have to store all photos and other information you have on your computer in case something bad occurs to the phone, you're covered.

Your iPhone can also be used as a mobile storage device by downloading an easy to install app. Whether you want to carry videos, music, photos or documents, you can easily put them on your phone. Just use the iPhone directly or connect to a computer to see the files.

If you plan to link several email accounts to the iPhone, make sure they all have different names. It can be confusing if you name each account the same thing. By uniquely naming email accounts, they are easier to navigate.

Store your iPhone's guarantee in a safe location, and pay the few extra dollars to insure your new phone. As long as you have the warranty, and maybe a solid insurance policy, you'll have nothing to worry about. It is also a great idea to prevent external damage with the use of a quality iPhone case.

Are there a couple of apps or background functions you want to turn off on your iPhone? Tap your iPhone's Home key to quickly shut down those programs. Find the app you need to close, and hold your finger on it. When you see the icon wiggling, touch the icon red minus for the app to close.

Do a hard reboot if your phone is not responding to the Sleep and Wake button. Hold the Sleep/Wake key while pressing on the Home key at the same time. The phone will then shut down and restart as a signal that everything went well.

If there's anyone you know who has an iPhone, probably you have seen how some have the technology blow their minds, whether for better or for worse. Using the suggestions you have just read, you can begin to get the most out of your iPhone.
