Tips And Tricks To Keep You Technologically Savvy

By Amiel Nalda


Iphones are more than phones, they are devices that allow you to experience life in a whole new light. Look through the contents of this article to see what you can learn about iPhones and how to use them to your advantage.

Through the aid of Siri, you can create custom location reminders. If you were used to giving Siri time-based commands, you can instead switch to location-based commands to make things easier. You can tell Siri to remind you to give work a call when you get home. Then, once you reach home, Siri will sense it and remind you. You can remind yourself even if you are unsure of the time you will get home.

Use your phone to send photos to your family and friends. There are two different ways you can achieve this. You can either send saved images through email or upload them to your social media account.

There is an easy way to remove unwanted emails with just a swipe of your finger. Go to the inbox where you can simply slide your finger across an email which will then bring up the delete button. There you can easily and instantly delete the message.

With the iPhone, you can make up your own dictionary and shortcuts. There's no reason your iPhone shouldn't anticipate the words you want to use. For added efficiency, try programming your phone with your most commonly used phrases and shortcuts. The keyboard also has an auto-correct feature that will help you when you type a phrase or word.

When using your iPhone as a music player, it is possible to shuffle the alignment of your screen icons. Tap Settings and then "add more icons". You will then have the ability to create icons for any song or album of your choice.

If you are listening to some tunes on the iPhone, know that it is possible to change the icons found on the screen's bottom. Through Settings, you can opt to 'add more icons'. Now you can choose from a variety of icons, then use them to access all of your favorite albums, genres, artists and songs.

To mark any emails on an iPhone as unread, locate that command. First, go to Details, then click on the "Unread" button. When you access your mail, the message will still appear to be unread.

Your iPhone's calendar is a great tool to help you keep organized. You can add events faster and easier directly rather than using the + button. In the "Day" view simply tap the hour to create a new appointment or event. The quicker you can schedule things, the less time you'll have to waste on it.

After reading this article, you are better informed about all the different functions your iPhone has which you were previously unaware of. Now, when you use your iPhone next, keep these tips in mind.
