Simple iPhone Care Tips to Keep Your iPhone Working Like New

Any single scratch on your iPhone will zap your patience. Yes, we react to this extent and it is our love, compassion for it. In fact, we cradle our iPhone to a newborn.
Here are some interesting tips to keep your iPhone new even after its many new siblings enter the market.

Clean the Screen: If there is a gradual sound degradation which you might observe, then it is time to clean the clogged pores of the mic and speakers. Say adieu to your audio problems by cleaning the speakers with canned air and rubbing alcohol. Be aware while doing these as these circuits are too fragile. Use very little alcohol as there are chances for the fluid to get into the speakers.

Solution to Scratches on Glass: We all know that skin protector is so thin. It is obvious to replace it often as they get wear out so easily. But you can try using the skin protector and as well a hard case. These options help you to keep your iPhone new for a very long time.

Usage of Lint Free Cloth: Lint free cloth helps to wipe away dirt completely. Even though you have the safety case, there are chances for the dirt to cause harm to the exterior. So, take it out often and clean the exterior case. It is not advised to clean the screen with the solvents or aerosol sprays for any cause.

Invest in screen Protector: It is always wise to invest in the screen protector. Otherwise, you end up in grief if there is any scratch or break on the screen. The best screen protectors include the ZAGG shield as this protects all sides of the screen. Based on your budget, you can even go for the front only screen protector. Don’t think of using these screen protectors for a long time. Try replacing them every 3 to 4 months so that you will be able to keep the iPhone new for a very long time.

Over Heating Matters Always!
Ensure you are not using or placing the iPhone in the temperatures above 100 degrees or below 40 degrees. It is common that iPhone emits heat after or while getting charged. So, make sure to switch it off and use it once it gets cool. On the other hand, if you find that the iPhone is getting heated for so long, then it’s time to take the same to the apple store.

Are you Using Car Charger?
Using a car charger for the iPhone is not recommended. But you can do so when it is emergency or essential. In this regard, make sure that you are turning on or off the car while the iPhone is plugged into the charger. Doing this might create electrical spikes.
All these are the simple tips which are essential to follow to enhance the lifetime of your most favorite iPhone. Follow them to have a new look even after using it for couple of years.

Whatever might be the cost of the mobile which we are using, we just feel completely lost it slips into water. Unless it is some waterproof smartphone. In just few fraction of seconds, we feel devastated and thrown away from the world as this mobile stop working. Have you been into such situations?

If yes, you might be knowing what to do to fix the smart phone. And if you are lucky till date, here is a short guide that helps you for your wrong time.

Take it Off Water Immediately:

Remove the phone from water and switch it off immediately. You can also take the battery if possible and place it on paper towel. Even though you think your phone is water resistant, it is always advised to follow this simple step to enhance the life time of the mobile. Dissemble the phone and remove all the user removable parts for sure.

Dry with Vacuum Cleaner:

Try using the vacuum cleaner or paper towel to suck off the water present in the mobile. Take the paper towel to dry the exterior and every possible component. Even while using vacuum cleaner or paper towel, make sure not to move the mobile aggressively. Try using the smallest vacuum cleaner possible.

Magic with Bag of Rice:

Give the wet phone ample time to dry and don’t be in a hurry to use the same. It is after you ensure all the phone parts are no more wet. Put the mobile in the zip lock cover filled with rice for a couple of days. You can also use silica gel instead of rice if this is readily available with you. This is because both rice and silica gel are good at absorbing the humidity in the air.

Accept the Reality:

After leaving the phone for a two to three day in the zip lock cover, it’s time to take it out and test your luck. Recharge it if the battery is empty and check how it’s working. You must keep an eye on any irregularities in its functionality. There are chances to observe these irregular or abnormal functionalities even after second or third day of its usage. So, you are patient and check your mobile with proper attention.

Spend some time to check for the speakers, microphone, earphone etc. to ensure your mobile is in proper condition. In most of the cases, everything goes well. But when you are not lucky, you might take this to the professionals like Shatterfix for their impeccable service. If you have the mobile insurance, you can even claim the same and not burn your hard-earned money.

Always remember not to turn in the phone immediately as it slips into water. Ensure you resist not to press any button or keys and never bang the phone out of your emotions. Don’t shake or blow on it as water might get into internal parts as well. It might cause more damage. Also, don’t get too creative like heating the mobile or microwaving it. Just follow the above simple methods.
