iPhone Travel Tips

As attractive as cheap airplane tickets and discount hotel rooms or cheap vacation packages are when planning a trip, savvy iPhone users can improve the quality of their trips by taking advantage of special iPhone features.

The following are just a few iPhone tips that travelers often find useful:

You can extend your phones battery life by adjusting its brightness level. The single biggest drain on your battery is the power needed to light up the display. The default on your iPhone is set to be extremely bright. By going to iPhone settings you can pick Brightness and select whatever level of brightness desired. Alternatively, consider turning on the Auto Brightness setting which adjusts the screen backlight brightness to be only as strong as necessary.

You can easily add an event to your calendar if you receive an email that includes phrases such as Friday at 6 pm. Your iPhone automatically underlines such phrases. Tap the link and a window will open asking if you want to Create Event. Tap that and your iPhones Calendar will open to the relevant date and time and subject of the name of the event. Make any desired adjustments and then tap Done to add it to your calendar.

You can find yourself on the map by tapping the Arrow icon in the bottom left hand corner of maps to see a blue bouncing dot appear. If you want your map to match the direction you are facing to make it simpler to orient yourself, then tap the Arrow icon a second time. The map will then adjust to the direction you are facing making it easier to read. www.cheapfares.com
