Iphone Online Courses So You Can Use Your Phone

By Evelyn Walls


There are various resources for learning how to use your new iPhone. The one that suits you best depends on your level of interest. If you only intend to use the basic features of the phone there are free tutorials on the internet. The Apple website has some tutorials that tend to tell you what the phone can do with little instruction on how to do it. If you thought the iPhone 5 was mysterious, you will be blown away by the iPhone 6 with its 3D technology. Whether you buy iPhone online courses or access some free ones on the internet, most people over the age of thirty will need some assistance.

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.

The iTunes site also has several free tutorials. They are all free and often provide you with links or access to more tutorials. The videos are fairly short, and you can learn what you need to know in seven to fifteen minutes blocks of time.

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 courses online where you can usually get a ten day free trial, but after that the fee is about thirty five dollars a month. These course may be more robust and cover more topics. They offer an annual fee which is slightly less per month but you will pay one lump sum in excess of three hundred dollars. If you want to try these courses it seems reasonable to buy the service for a month before you commit that much money to something you may not use or need.

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.

Never far behind and usually ahead of the curve, Google Chrome offers many similar tutorials. Users can compare and contrast to decide which they prefer. There is a lot to know about what these phones can do, and most of the information is available for free.

You may not want to devote excessive time to learning how to use all the features of your iPhone. Still, it is a good idea to devote sufficient time so that you are in the loop and up to speed when the next version is introduced. Be patient with yourself. It really is not all that difficult, just a matter of learning a new skill.
