By Roger Grabillo


Anywhere you go nowadays, you are sure to see someone on their iPhone. But, why is this device so popular? The answer is that there are so many positives to having one. The following article is going to explain to you why it is in your best interest to own an iPhone.

Don't scribble that phone number you searched for onto a scrap of paper. If you locate a number in Safari that you would like to call, there is no need to use the regular dialer. Just tap on the phone number, instead, and the phone will call it automatically.

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.

Your iphone can do almost anything you want it to. The phrase "there's an app for that" is partly tongue in cheek and partly real. Check out the app store for lots of great ideas and things that you can start using your phone to do, keep track of or remind you of.

Are you constantly running out of battery on your iPhone? Look into a battery case to increase your longetivity. These cases can double or more the total battery life of your phone, so you'll never run out of juice during a long day out on vacation. There are many case makers that build battery cases; one of the most well known is Mophie.

Do not rely solely on the iPhone's auto brightness feature to save battery power. If the auto brightness feature is active, the phone's brightness sensor will be constantly active and using battery power to adjust the brightness. Instead, use the manual brightness setting and put it on the lowest setting that is visible to you.

Even if you do not plan to use your iPhone for awhile, you should store it with a dead battery. Allow your phone to fully charge each time it is put on the charger instead of letting it run down. Otherwise, you run the risk of adversely affecting the chemical composition of the battery, possibly damaging the phone.

A good tip if you plan on using an iphone is to make sure you end up with the best plan. The best plan for everyone might be different such as a family plan or pay as you go plan. It's important to find the right one for you so that you don't' pay more than you have to.

If your iPhone uses iOS4 and up, you can use it as a wireless router. First, access General Settings, then locate the Network button. From this screen, simply tap Set Up Personal Hotspot. You will be asked to confirm the change by your service provider. Now you can connect your iPod, computer or other device to your iPhone's wireless connection.

Research various iphone applications on your own online. There are so many applications available that you definitely have never heard of them all. If you have an idea of what you would like your iphone to do for you, just look around online to see if there is an application for it, there likely is.

In conclusion, people all over can be seen on an iPhone. This is because an iPhone can be used to your advantage in so many ways. Now that you have read this article, you probably have a better understanding of why it is in your best interest to own an iPhone.
