Searching For Iphone Tricks? Try These Ideas!

By Cleoff Standford


An iphone is a great investment if you are constantly on the go, but it can be difficult to figure out how to use it to its maximum potentially. If you find that you feel this way you should read the article that follows below, as it will give you the tips that you need.

There is a quick way to take a picture with your iPhone even if the screen is locked. Tap the home button twice, and a camera icon appears beside the unlock bar. Tap the camera, and you can take a picture immediately without the need to take the time to unlock the screen first.

Unfreeze your phone by trying this trick. If you find that the screen has frozen, push Sleep/Wake. If that does not work, press it again at the same time as you push the Home button. You will receive an option to slide to power off. That will allow you to do a hard reset, so you can turn off your phone, and then power it up again.

Use the headphone cord to help you take pictures. It can be difficult to take a picture that is in focus if you are pushing a button that is on the actual phone. Instead, push the cord's button; the slight movement will not affect your iPhone at all, allowing you to take a crisp, clear photograph.

If you see a word in any email or note that you are unfamiliar with, just press and hold on it. Your iPhone should bring it up in the newer dictionary feature so that you can know what the word means. This function works in iBooks as well as generally online.

Be sure to avoid getting any water on your iphone. One of the biggest causes of destruction to any cellphone is dropping it into water, or getting water spilled on it. To ensure this does not happen to you, you should generally not use or bring your phone into a bathroom and always keep it in a safe place far from liquid sources.

The iPhone is popular with children and teens. If a parent chooses to purchase one for a child, it can be helpful to learn how to limit content. Simply go to "general" and "restrictions". After you have done this, enable the restrictions and enter a four digit code. You can specify what type of content is permissible to keep and view from the phone.

If your phone has frozen and the Sleep/Wake button isn't working for you, don't panic! Instead, hold down your phone's Home button as well as its Sleep/Wake button at the same time. This will allow you to perform a hard reboot of the phone. Most of the time this will be enough to unfreeze your phone.

If you own an iphone you should purchase a phone case immediately. The last thing that you want to happen is for your phone to explode into pieces because you did not protect it properly. Landing on concrete from just a few feet high can mean the demise of your phone, so protect it the best that you can.

Now that you have read this article you have probably realized that your phone is even better than you ever thought. Now just take the information that you learned about your iphone to use so that your iphone can make your busy life easier than you had ever imagined before.
