Introduction
You hear a lot about tech taking over and smartphones – with iPhone at the lead – getting in the way of personal relationships. We won’t lie to you: We love tech and telling people about it, but our goal is not for tech to take charge of your life: We want you to take charge of tech.
In this book, we try to find the balance between simple, practical information for new users and new information for experienced users. Whatever your iPhone user level, we want this book to bring you to a point of using your iPhone at the maximum potential for you. For some that might mean using three or four apps such as Phone, Camera, and Messages, whereas for others, it might mean using most of the preinstalled apps.
About This Book
To write this book, we looked into every nook and cranny of iPhone, and then we asked friends and family with iPhones to tell us their weirdest, most confusing, and most confounding iPhone circumstances, which we tried to solve. Armed with that information, we revised the previous edition of this book and believe we get pretty darn close to telling you all there is to know. That said, Apple releases iOS updates frequently – this book is based on iOS 8.0 – and we encourage you to keep your iPhone and app software up to date and stay informed as to how to use features that may be added with updates.
We’re not perfect, so we undoubtedly missed something. Let us know. Your comments, questions, and compliments help us to improve future editions. Drop a note to us at [email protected]. And to learn about changes that occur after the book is printed, join our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/iPhoneAIOFD.
Finally, throughout this book, you see sidebars (text in gray boxes). Sidebars present technical information that you don’t have to know but that might interest you if you want to understand the technology behind the function. Also, you may note that some web addresses break across two lines of text. If you’re reading this book in print and want to visit one of these web pages, simply key in the web address exactly as it’s noted in the text, pretending as though the line break doesn’t exist. If you’re reading this as an e-book, you’ve got it easy – just click the web address to be taken directly to the web page.
Foolish Assumptions
We made a few assumptions about you when writing this book. To make sure we’re on the same page, we assume that
✔ You know something, but not necessarily a lot, about cellphones and you want to learn the basics and more about iPhone.
✔ You have at least a general concept of how to use the web and email.
✔ You acknowledge that it’s up to you to go on the web to find updated information about the products described throughout this book.
✔ You’ll check with your cellular service provider to know how many minutes or megabytes are included in your monthly allotment and under what circumstances you might incur additional charges (although we do give you some warnings throughout the book when additional charges are more likely).
✔ You know that technology is changing faster than we can keep up and even geeks like us can’t stay on top of everything. You will, therefore, let us know about cool stuff you find along the way of your iPhone journey so we can consider it for future editions of this book.
✔ You’re not all work and no play. You want to have some fun with your iPhone and maybe even be entertained while you’re learning how to use it.
