Advice And Tips For Getting The Most From Your IPhone

By Airiel Bermudez


The iPhone has become an indispensable piece of electronics for many owners in modern times. However, using one to the utmost ability and maximizing its potential can prove challenging. For tips, tricks and techniques on how to make the very most of your iPhone, keep reading into the following paragraphs.

You probably spend a lot of time reading scrollable content on your iPhone, but you might not know about this feature. When you've scrolled down on a page, you can return to the top simply by tapping your phone's status bar. This can be very helpful, and once you're familiar with the feature, you may find yourself using it all the time.

Find your phone fast with the brand new, free app called Find My iPhone. It lets you remotely access your phone to provide you with coordinates on a map, turn the volume up so the phone can be heard from under thick cushions, or lock the phone and wipe all data in case of theft.

If you use Safari to browse the Internet on your iPhone, try this trick for typing in a new URL. Instead of actually typing out ".com", you can hold down the ".com" button. As you hold the button down, it will scroll through the most popular website extensions, including .org, .net and .edu.

If you have Siri on your latest generation iphone, remember that you need to speak simply, clearly and slowly. If you speak too fast, in a deep accent or mumble your words, she won't be able to understand you, and you'll end up being frustrated. Try to learn the words that she recognizes easily so that you have an easier time using her.

Do you need to create folders to organize your emails? IPhones do not support this feature, but you can use your IMAP email account to create folders. Access your IMAP server and create different folders. Save your emails in the different folders you created: this should help you keep track of your important messages.

You're going to need to switch between punctuation keys and the alphabet keys, and you would like to know how to do this much more quickly. Press the ?123 key, but then don't let up your finger as the actual punctuation layout shows up. Slide your finger over to the comma key, release, and you will see the ABC layout appear automatically.

If you are working in one app and want to return to an app you were previously using, take advantage of app switcher. App switcher is accessed when you tap twice on the home button. You will see all of your recently opened apps, and can easily switch from one to the other.

If you own an iPhone, you know just how powerful a tool it can be in making your life easier to deal with. Apply what you have learned from this article to get the most out of your iPhone as you carry it with you throughout your daily life and schedule.
