iPhone is the best smartphone in the world and even if it comes with great and complicated features it is very easy to use. If you want to know how to use an iPhone, the next lines will help you understand how some of the best features of iPhone work.



The basics features include messages, calls, e-mail, typing, copy/cut/paste and more. Let’s start with the messages: everyone knows how to type messages on a phone, but iPhone is smarter than that because it gives you the possibility to select individual messages or phrases from a text message conversation and you can send them to another friend via text message.

To do that you have to open a copy/cut/paste conversation and select the edit option on the top right of your screen. The next step is to check the messages you want to send, select the forward option and then select a name. The messages will be sent to that contact or if you want to delete them, you have to select them and tap the delete button.



The e-mail feature of the iPhone works as the one you are used to with little changes. For example, you can send up to 5 pictures at once in a single e-mail. To do that you have to go to photos and select the ones you want to share with your friends. After that you have to press the share button and the e-mail. That is all!

The iPhone gives you the possibility to type in many applications, but no matter what kind of application you are using you can undo the typing by shaking your device. If you changed your mind and you want the text back, all you have to do is to shake the phone again.

iPhone also has great copy/cut/paste feature that gives you the possibility to cut, copy or paste text. For example, you can copy a text from the web page or from any application and paste it into your e-mail or notes. To copy a text you can to double tap a word and then highlight the text you want using the blue markers. After that, the phone gives you two options: copy and paste, choose the one you want and then paste the text in your e-mail or text by double tapping the area.



Another great feature of iPhone is the landscape keyboard. This helps you type easier and faster in all typing programs like Messages, Mail and Notes. Voice Memos are other cool features of iPhone. The application allows you to record audio and then share the files or edit them. To record you have to open the Voice Memos application and click on the record button, then tap on the button on the right of your screen to see the previous recordings. To see more options you have to select the blue arrow and to edit the audio files you have to select the “Trim” option.

Disadvantages To Jailbreak Your iPhone


No comments

posted in iPhone, by BindApple

Jailbreaking an iPhone is a process that allows you to run any code on it which means that once you jailbreak your iPhone, you will be able to download applications that didn’t worked previously with your phone or application unavailable in Apple Store.



On a jailbreak iPhone you can install every application you want through Icy, Cydia, and you can also install illegal pirated applications. Jailbreaking an iPhone gives you many advantages, but also disadvantages and in the next lines we are going to talk about the disadvantages.

The first disadvantage is the fact that Apple has released an official SDK, so know you have the possibility to install 3rd part applications on your device without “hacking” it. You can download the software which gives you the possibility to develop additional applications for your iPhone or to install additional tools. So, if the Software Development Kit is enough for you there is no point in jailbreaking your iPhone.



The second disadvantage is the risk of getting your precious device “bricked”. And as the work implies, your phone could become a brick which means that you won’t be able to do anything without it. If this thing happens is not the end of the world, because you can restore your firmware through iTunes and you get back the phone with the default settings.

Jailbreaking an iPhone slows it down which means that the performance won’t be the one you want and your iPhone won’t run as fast as you want, or as fast at it should. This is a big disadvantage, because the iPhone comes with state-of-the-art technology and great software and applications and it should run better than any other smartphone on the market.

If you jailbreak your iPhone you will lose storage on it, but this thing happens also when you install the Software Development Kit. So, if you are limited in storage capabilities, you should remove some of your applications and then install the SDK or jailbreak your phone. This is up to you, but we recommend to install first the SDK and see how it works for you and if you are not pleased with this software, then you can jailbreak your iPhone.



The security is not an issue when it comes to Apple and Mac, because there are not many viruses for Mac and the ones that are have a little effect on your information and don’t damage your computer. But situation changes when you jailbreak your iPhone, because you install application that comes from developers all over the world and no one knows what is behind those applications. You don’t know if you can trust them or it they can damage your phone, but one thing you should know is that the official SDK is more secure than those application.

So, these are the disadvantages when you jailbreak your iPhone, but we can’t leave behind that there are a lot more advantages.

Satin Case For Apple MacBook


No comments

posted in Apple, accessories, by BindApple

Satin gives you a silky-soft felling to the touch and if you like this material, you should know that Speck has many cool satin cases for your MacBook. You will find them in many colors and for most Apple MacBook models.



The satin case from Speck offers the same protection as a plastic or hard shell case, the different between this case and other cases is the grippy edge and the frosted finish. The exterior of the case has a rubberized texture and, that is not all, because the case comes with built-in rubberized feet to keep your precious laptop secure and stable on any surface.



This case protects your Apple MacBook from scratches, scrapes and accidental drops. SeeThru Satin allows your computer to be open all the way and it is fully vented to protect your laptop from overheating.  The case offers you access to all buttons, ports and external connections.

The case comes in two pieces: one is the cover for the top and the other one is the cover for the bottom of your laptop. The colors of the cases are great, you can find: black, pink, red, purple and more, and they add a touch of color to your MacBook, because white is not a cool color anymore (all MacBooks are white, exception makes the black MacBook).

These satin cases for your Apple MacBook are made from hard and durable polycarbonate plastic and the exterior is very soft to the touch. If you purchase a SeeThru Satin case from Speck you will also get a cleaning cloth for your laptop.

The price for these cool satin cases is about $49.95 and you will find more information about them on Speckproducts.com.

In the next lines we are going to present a few reviews of these cases from the people who used them. The rubberized coating offers a nice feel and a light grip and the texture is not showing fingerprints like other cases do. The Apple logo shines only when the laptop is open and on, and it is hidden when the MacBook is closed.

A down side of this satin case is the fact that dust and other particles cling on it and make it look dirty, but this case is easy to clean by simply blowing on it or dusting it. You may experience some difficulties in removing the case from the laptop when you want to clean it, but this is not a rule.

Bottom-line this satin case is a great one and a good investment, although many of you may thing that is to expensive for just a cover. But the case is made from high-quality materials and is the only satin case you will find on the market.
