Are you one of the many people who are thinking of getting an iPhone but are unsure if it's right for you? You are not the only one; many people are hesitant about purchasing an iPhone because they just do not get the hype. In this article, you will be given information about iPhones that will make you realize that having one is a great asset.

If you accidentally drop your iPhone into some water, do not turn it on right away or you can permanently damage it. Dry the phone with a towel and sit it in a bowl of rice overnight. This will help draw out all of the water that may have gotten into hidden areas.

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.

Make sure that you delete conversations that you are not using in the message's screen. This is very important because as time goes on, your conversation history will become longer and longer, reducing the amount of space on your phone. You can do this by going to your message's section and deleting full conversations or part of them with the edit function.

If you have dropped your IPhone in water, use rice to try and dry it out and get it working again. Remove the battery and place the IPhone in a sealed container of dry, uncooked rice. Cover the phone completely with the rice and seal the container. Keep the phone in the rice for at least a day before trying to use it again.

A great tip for using your iphone is to purchase some kind of app that will help you find restaurants near your location. There is actually an app available that will randomly bring up a restaurant according to what you put in such as mexican food, italian, or whatever you want.

Tired of your screen switching from landscape to portrait orientation at the slightest movement? Start by double-tapping the Home button to bring up a selection of recently used apps. Press the far-left button, which is a gray icon with an arrow. You will then receive a message confirming that the phone is locked in portrait orientation.

Go to Settings and then Message to enable to the word counter option. If you do not have unlimited texting, this feature will tell you how many characters your texts are as you type them. Going past 160 characters typically counts as two text messages and eats up your allotment faster.

As stated in the above article, there is so much to learn about the iphone that oftentimes it becomes so overwhelming to learn about all the new technology. Now that you just learned a few simple tips and tricks, you should be up to speed some on how make your iphone usage much easier.
