we're talking about the iPhone the
iPhone is capable of a multitude of
tasks from making calls and texting to
providing driving directions and playing
music but before we dive into everything
the iPhone is capable of let's take a
few moments to explore some of the
important physical aspects such as
finding the various buttons and ports
charging the battery and caring for the
iPhone itself the iPhone only has a few
buttons and ports keeping things simple
on the right side there's the sleep/wake
button and on the left side the ring
silent switch and the volume button
below the touch screen is the home
button and at the bottom is the
lightning connector which allows you to
charge the battery connect headphones
and more you can plug the lightning
cable included with your iPhone into a
USB port on your computer to charge the
battery or transfer data if you only
want to charge the battery however you
can connect to a wall outlet through the
power adapter also included with your
iPhone just plug the adapter into the
wall then insert the charging cables USB
you can also check the battery life by
finding the battery icon in the top
right of the touch screen starting with
the iPhone 7
there is no headphone jack leaving you
with three options if you want to listen
in your iPhone comes with headphones
that have a lightning connector as well
as an adapter that can connect to
standard headphones you can also
purchase wireless headphones if you want
to get rid of wires altogether the
buttons themselves are easy to use press
the sleep/wake button or the home button
to wake your iPhone then you can press
the home button enter your passcode if
you set one up and you're ready to roll

iPhone is also quite simple flips the
ring silent switch up and your iPhone

FaceTime to video chat you'll be using a
camera and the iPhone has two one on the
front and another on the back anytime
you're snapping a picture or recording
video you can switch between the cameras
by touching the camera flip icon on the
right that way you can go from filming
something in front of you to yourself
and back again
caring for your iPhone is important for
extending the life of your device
cleaning the screen is simple use a dry
lint-free cloth to wipe off smudges or
finger prints be sure not to use any
household cleaners however as they could
ruin the special coating on the touch

your eyes on with a case cases vary a
great deal ranging from freak ones that
only cover the back and sides of the
iPhone the durable shelves that protect
the entire device from bumps scratches
and Falls a wide variety of cases are
available from the Apple Store and many
other retailers so now that you know the
various buttons import how to charge the
battery and how to care for your iPhone
