Thing 2: Mobile Device Tips

This thing was very useful with mobile device tips. I recently purchased an I-pad so I am still learning many things about it. Unless someone shows you or you accidentally come across it, there are many features you wouldn't know about it. One of the videos about the I-pad explained the screen that pops up from the bottom which is called quick controls and also the screen that comes down from the top is the notification center. I also watched the videos on how to save battery life on your I-phone as the battery seems to run down quickly on my phone. It gave us many tips on saving battery life. Every few days you should double click the home button and swipe up the windows that are open to close them. There are also many items under settings that can be adjusted to improve battery life. You can turn down your brightness and turn off some of the app refresh buttons especially those you don't use often. Another useful tip for me was how to turn on bold text. It really makes it easy to read. All so these tips make using my I-pad and I-phone less frustrating.

23 Mobile Things: Thing 1 Blogging and Registering

I am registered for 23 Mobile Things and ready to get started. I recently purchased an I-Pad so I'm ready to find out what else I can do with it. So far, I love it, and wonder how I got along without it! The 23 mobile things came at a perfect time for me. January is always the month I am looking for a class or new craft to pursue. I was a little confused to discover a website for 23 Mobile Things that was different than the Minnesota one. Be sure to follow the MN one if you live in MN.
