Iphone Online Courses To Get To Know Your Phone

By Evelyn Walls


Several resources are available on the Internet that provide tutorials on getting to know your iPhone. Your preference will depend on what you want to know, the basics or advanced learning for all applications and functions. There are several free courses and some that charge a fee. If had some trouble mastering the iPhone 5, the next generation iPhone 6 will be even more challenging. It has 3D technology unlike any application or system that you may have used in the past. Do not feel embarrassed if you need these tutorials. Anyone older than thirty will benefit from some iPhone online courses.

There is a great website that offers free step by step instructions on nineteen different features found on every phone. It includes a quiz so you can test yourself to see how much you have retained. The good thing is that you can do this any time anywhere with your phone, iPod or iPad. The instructions are very clear and can be reviewed again and again as needed.

Go to iTunes on your phone or on your computer, and there are eleven free tutorials. These are free videos and can be very helpful for most of the basics. Some of the tutorials will lead the user to more tutorials. New users can learn a lot from these short courses.

The Apple store online provides support pages free of charge. The topics are listed in appropriate categories. You can learn how to transfer data, how to adjust your settings and all about email and messaging. Be sure that you are using iCloud for backup. When a phone is lost, stolen or damaged, if the owner has failed to backup data to iCloud, all is lost.

There are paid tutorials online which usually have a free trial period for ten days. Thereafter the charge is around thirty five dollars monthly. They encourage users to buy an annual subscription. Unless this is a service that you intend to use often for a long period of time, the free ten days or one month should be sufficient. It does not make sense to pay more than three hundred dollars for just a few days or weeks of usage.

YouTube is another free resource. There are many online video tutorials for just about anything you need to know about your iPhone. It is easy to simply choose the ones that are of interest to you and move onto the next video when you are ready.

Google Chrome is also a resource for free tutorials and instructions. Users can switch back and forth between YouTube and Google to find the ones that are most helpful. Thanks to these two resources, the supply of information is virtually unlimited and constantly being updated.

You choose how much time you want to devote to this learning. Smart phones are here to stay, but their functionality is only going to increase. Learning the phones with each new generation is the best way to stay current. You will build your knowledge base with each step. Best to get started now and continue to update and refresh. Users will always need to be prepared for the next latest, greatest generation of phones.
