What Can Your Iphone Do? Find Out!

By Airiel Bermudez


Even though the iphone has been out for several years now, it is still shocking people today. This is because every time a new version of the phone comes out, it has some revolutionary technology with it. Check out some of the latest and most popular features the iphone has available today.

Is your iPhone frozen? Hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time. Wait until it gives you the option to shut it down. Swipe the screen to shut your phone down. Once it powers down, turn it back on. This will reset the phone and generally fixes any problem you may have with your freezing.

You can create an app out of any website that you visit quite often if you want to be able to access it much easier. All you have to do is open the page in the Safari browser, press the Go To button and select the option "Add to Home Screen."

Utilize the contacts' section of your iPhone to organize all of your friends and family. This is very important as you can alphabetize all of your contacts and also include a lot of information pertaining to each contact. Furthermore, on the contact's screen, you are able to click on a name and call or text, them immediately.

Lock your screen, if you need to. If your iphone seems to have trouble determining whether it's up or down, try locking your screen. The constant shift between portrait and landscape can get rather frustrating. By going into your settings or, sometimes, by just checking the bottom of your screen, you can lock your phone's screen to one or the other.

If you need to write an email or document in all caps on the iPhone, simply tap the shift key twice to lock it. This is similar to how you would set the caps lock on any standard keyboard. You can then write your document in all caps easily without having to continuously tap the shift key over and over again.

There are many myths about how you are supposed to handle an iPhone falling into water. The largest one is using a hairdryer to dry the phone. Instead of drying out all the water that has gotten on the phone, doing this will only serve to push water further into the phone.

The iPhone makes it so easy to send messages that you might be tempted to invest a little effort into formatting. Fortunately, a little effort is all it takes. Like many of the other keys on the on-screen keyboard, the punctuation keys will give you a lot of great options (like straight or curly quotation marks) if you press and hold them.

Now that you've read this article, surely you can see that many of your iphone frustrations have reasonably simple solutions. If you know the right tricks, anything is easier. Apply these suggestions you have learned and you will be on your way to mastering the complexities of your personal iphone.
