Essential iPhone Maintenance Tips to Protect Your Phone



New smartphones are very fragile pieces of high-tech equipment and cost hundreds of dollars. So, whenever you buy a new iPhone, you probably want to ensure that it is well protected if you want it to stay in good condition and have a long lifespan. There are many tips and tricks which are essential for keeping your mobile phone in the best possible condition.


Protect Your Phone with a Leather Case

Even though the iPhone is an extraordinary device, it has one “flaw” (if we can say so), and that is that it is very delicate. Firstly, the glass design is very delicate, and secondly, it is very slippery. If any kind of damage occurs, the repair can be pretty expensive. To prevent some unwanted scenarios, you have to protect it with a quality phone leather case. The case will ensure that any accidental bumps or drops are absorbed without damaging it.



You will find thousands of options for leather phone cases and you can easily find a style that you like. There are skin cases, pouch cases (usually leather), bumpers, clip-on cases (with a magnetic fastening), shells, and many others. But why it's advisable to you choose leather? A leather phone case is a good shock absorber, with good texture, feels great in hands, and is easy to grip and hold, which is exactly what a good phone case should provide. Plus, it’s very stylish and elegant. It goes without saying that leather is also a very durable material and it doesn’t tend to look scratched or damaged after a while. The most common model of phone leather case is the one that comes with an added layer where you can hold you essential stuff (like credit cards, notes, coins, etc.). However, there are also leather clip-on cases, bumpers and skin leather cases.


Although the design is important, what’s even more important is how you treat your phone and which model of phone leather case will protect it most. For instance, if you tend to drop your mobile phone a lot, a bumper leather case would be a good choice of phone case for you. If you often carry it in a purse or backpack, you need a case the offers protection on all sides such as poaches or clip-on case. While, if you often keep your phone in your pocket  - a skin or bumper case is what you need.

Make Sure the Charging Port is Clean




Since charging is one of the most frequent things you do to your phone, and you do it on daily basis, you have to ensure that your charging port is clean. Charging problems often occur with mobile phones and when this happens, it is usually because of a clogged lighting port. Even though you have been trying to protect it well, somehow this still happens. In this case, what you should do is clean the charging port. The first option to do it is by using a toothpick or the SIM removal tool to remove any debris in it. You have to be very careful while doing it because you can damage the contact points. If this method doesn’t work, your second option is to try a can of compressed air to get out any sticky debris, by holding it close to the charging port.






Clean the Phone


It’s good to give your iPhone a good cleaning from time to time since we carry them everywhere and they are very dirty and germ-ridden. First, you have to power off the device before you perform any cleaning steps. It’s recommended that you use a soft, damp cloth, and a gadget-safe cleaning solution (a microfiber is a good option). Don’t spray straight on the device and avoid getting water or cleaner in the various ports, buttons and other openings. Always spray the cleaner on the rag. Then, get a compressed air can suitable for use with electronics, and spray the headphone jack, the connector port and the SIM card slot. After all this, you can turn the device back on.



Free Up Space


After a long time of use, your mobile phone can slow down and can be filled with unnecessary files and data. As a result, your apps may be crashing, the battery life of your phone will be terrible, you won’t have enough space to keep your photos, etc. This is the moment when you have to clear the storage space. First, you have to clear the cache for individual apps. The apps we most use, such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and others, can gather hundreds of wasteful items and unnecessary take-up space. Then, delete all the apps that you no longer need. Go to the Settings app and then to the Apps item. Go through the list, see which app you haven’t used in a while, and uninstall them. The next thing you can do is sort and clear your downloads folder. Many of the downloaded items are automatically downloaded and since we rarely look in this folder, they needlessly take up a lot of space. Using a dedicated memory-cleaning app could also be helpful for cleaning out cache files and wasteful folders.
