If you have ever seen anyone use an iphone, you have seen that they are sleek, stylish, and ultra-functional. Whether you are a current iphone owner or someone who is thinking about buying one, you will find some outstanding tips and advice below for maximum enjoyment of all it has to offer.

TIP! Instead of trying to remember what a webpage or email said, you can save an image from on of them. Just touch and hold the image you want to save.

Battery Power

TIP! Sending messages as fast as possible means using the phone’s features and becoming efficient at it. You know that tapping twice on a word selects it.

If you have noticed your iphone losing battery quickly, one way to improve battery life is by turning off or disabling the applications and other functions that you are not using. Even if they are not in actual use by you, they still drain battery power and can shorten the intervals between recharges. Wireless radio functions on your iphone such as Wi-Fi or your GPS and your Bluetooth use additional battery power on your iphone that will cause more frequent recharging. When not in use, disable them to save power.

TIP! Everyone uses their iPhone to take pictures. But the camera roll, where the photos are kept, can be a much more confusing endeavor.

Make sure the firmware is updated on your iphone. That will help the usability of the iphone, as well as battery life. Updating your firmware is easy and can be done by connecting your computer to your phone and uploading iTunes. On the other hand, you can utilize iCloud to facilitate your connections.

TIP! Use the camera to take high quality pictures. You can snap a lot of images with your iPhone’s camera.

If you like to know the weather reports, did you know you can access the six-day forecast and current conditions simply by swiping the iphone to the right or left? You can also get to the Weather app from the Notifications section of your iphone.

TIP! When using Safari, make calls with a single tap. For example, you may need a dry cleaner, so you begin searching the Internet for one located near you.

Your iphone can provide visual indicators of incoming messages and calls. If you want to have a silent notification, the iPhone’s LED camera can be set to blink whenever you receive a call and/or message. Access this feature by utilizing the settings menu, and then tapping on “general” then “accessibility”. Select the button “LED Flash on Alerts.”

TIP! Buy a screen protector to use on your iPhone. If you don’t apply a screen protector, your phone can suffer from scratches and nicks.

If you would like to have weather updates on your iphone, try using the Weather app. Some users do not know that the local weather can be be displayed for up to twelve hours in the future. Also, you can just ask the phone for the weather forecast for just a few hours in the future.

TIP! You can scroll through the entire list of your contacts in three distinct ways. Press the list, scroll with your finger, or just tap a letter to jump directly to it.

Use your handy iphone to quickly snap a screenshot. Once you find the screen you want to save, hold the “home” button down while simultaneously clicking the “sleep” button. The screen will turn a white color when your screenshot has been taken and saved. It’s that simple!

TIP! When the phone is not in use, darken the screen as much as possible. The brighter your phone, the faster your battery will run out.
