Procrastinating or delaying is a bad habit that is found in many people nowadays, youngsters or adults alike. However, now you can get rid of this bad habit, with the help of technology. And, by technology, we refer to your iPhone.

Yes, you heard it right! Now, you can complete your work every day, without procrastinating it to a later time. Whether it is your personal work or official work, procrastinating is now a thing of the past with your Apple mobile device. If it's damaged or can't boot up, Repair iPhone from us!

Have a look at the 3 ways which you can turn your Apple Smartphone from a distraction to a tool that can fight procrastination.

1. Use a timer

The timer in your iPhone is there for some reason and what better way to use it than to fight your inner procrastination monster. Set the timer on your Apple mobile device and you will soon see how it increases your productivity.

Time yourself while you work on tasks, along with your breaks. Ensure that you set your work time between 25 and 50 minutes, during which you can work in sprints on your most crucial tasks followed by taking a break. Make sure that your break consists of something totally different, so that it can freshen up your mind.

This strategy is at times called the ‘pomodoro’ technique. And, if you follow this technique, you can enormously increase your work output. You can also do it in the opposite way, which means timing your break time. For instance, if you feel like surfing the net, checking news, or your social media accounts in order to relax, you can do so guilt free by setting the timer on your iPhone for say like 20 minutes.

This will help to control your habit and will also let you know, when you should get back to work. Besides your iPhone’s timer, you can also download any mobile application on your Apple Smartphone by putting ‘pomodoro’ in the search box of the Apple app store.

2. Listen to songs

Listening to songs can also help you with procrastination. You can work with several playlists on your iPhone. For instance, create two playlists, amongst which one is for your recreation time and the other is for your productive time.

You can set the productive playlist for a longer time period than the relaxing playlist, such as the former one can be 40 minutes long and the latter one can be 20 minutes long. Additionally, you can speed up your relaxing playlist at the end, so that the last songs can give you energy. This energy can be utilized to get back to your work.

3. See your ‘what is your purpose’ pictures

Whenever you procrastinate, you will find that it can highly delay your success. In order to get rid of this habit, you must think about the bigger picture, as to what matters to you the most, what you want to achieve in your life, what your purpose in life is, and where you see yourself in the next 5 or 10 years.

With this in mind, find a few pictures and make a nice collage of all these pictures in your iPhone. You can easily do this with the help of a picture collage app, which you can download from the app store of Apple. Then, put a text on the top of the picture, which explains your purpose in life. And, whenever you feel like procrastinating things, look at the picture in your iPhone screen and that will snap you of procrastination by reconnecting with your purpose in life.

Through these 3 ways, you can quit your procrastinating habit using your iPhone. And, if your iPhone screen breaks, repair iphone screen quickly!

Comparing AppleCare+ and AppleCare Protection Plan

Are you confused about AppleCare+ protection plan? Do you want to know which one between Apple Care+ and AppleCare is better for your Apple mobile device? If you are looking for answers to any of these questions, then read on.

Any form of insuring your iPhone will surely give you a peace of mind. Moreover, it allows you to use your Apple mobile device, without any worries of damage or breaking, especially if it’s your new phone. Even if you break your iPhone’s screen, you can repair iphone screen with us.

There are 2 main types of protection plans offered to customers when they buy a new Apple Smartphone to protect their investment. One such extended warranties product is AppleCare+, which is a comprehensive plan that includes the iPhone Upgrade Program.

AppleCare+ versus AppleCare

Every iPhone that you buy, whether from Apple or any other retailer, comes with a limited warranty of 1 year against defects, which is known as AppleCare. This coverage for your Apple mobile device does not cost anything and is activated automatically on the day you buy your new Apple Smartphone. AppleCare also offers complimentary support for your iPhone for a full 90 days. However, this being only the basic version, it does not provide any protection against accidental damage of your Apple mobile device. Here is where AppleCare+ comes in handy. Although, AppleCare+ requires you to pay an additional $129 extra, it is quite useful as coverage is more comprehensive.

AppleCare+ not only extends the standard warranty of 1 year to 2 years, but it also provides customers with phone support for a full 2 years, as compared to the 90 days provided by AppleCare basic. You can purchase AppleCare+ either when you purchase your new iPhone or within 60 days of buying your Apple Smartphone.

Verdict

AppleCare+ is great for people who plan to keep their Apple mobile device for over one year and is accident prone. And also, if your Apple Smartphone only has accidental damage and you do not have Apple Care+, you can bring it to us, so that we can repair iPhone for you.

Moreover, it does not switch to the next Wi-Fi network even after your current one dies. To solve this problem, you can install the Wi-Fi switcher application.

New screen time rules for kids, by doctors

This article first appeared in CNN

(CNN)Digital media exposure for children of all ages should be limited, according to new guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics.

This week, the AAP hosted a national conference in San Francisco, where an estimated 10,000 pediatricians met to discuss new children's health recommendations for 2017. Children's screen time, social media and cyberbullying were key points of interest.

Previously the Academy set a general screen time limit: no more than two hours in front of the TV for kids over age 2. Today, in a world surrounded by digital media 24/7, defining screen time is difficult.

"It doesn't make sense to make a blanket statement [of two hours] of screen time anymore," said Dr. Yolanda Reid Chassiakos, lead author of the "Children and Adolescents and Digital Media Technical Report" and assistant professor at UCLA. "For some children, two hours may be too much."

For the new guidelines, the AAP identifies screen time as time spent using digital media for entertainment purposes. Other uses of media, such as online homework, don't count as screen time.

The academy recommends that for children 2 to 5 years of age, screen time should be limited to one hour per day. For kids ages 6 and older, parents can determine the restrictions for time spent using screen, as well as monitor the types of digital media their children use.

Babies are most vulnerable to screens. Infants aged 18 months and younger should not be exposed to any digital media, the academy says.

Infants 18 months and younger: No screen time

For parents with infants, cutting off technology completely can be challenging. But banning screen time for babies is hugely important for brain development and healthy parent-child connections, Chassiakos said.

"The noise and activity of a screen are distracting for a child," she said. Even if the baby isn't directly looking at the screen -- for example, if a mother is nursing her child on the couch while watching TV -- the baby can be overstimulated by the lights and sounds, which may cause distress and sleep problems.

Perhaps most negatively, screen time causes a disconnect between parents and children.

"When a mother is breast-feeding, that is a crucial bonding time," said Chassiakos. The more face-to-face interaction children have with mothers and other adults, especially eye contact, the better for the brain development of infants, she explained.

If parents' attention is fixed on a TV or phone screen, babies are deprived of that attention; and if they are repeatedly neglected in favor of digital media, children may develop behavioral issues in the future, Chassaiakos said.

"The TV should not be a babysitter," she said. "It's much better to talk to a child or read from a book."

Children 2 to 5 years: One hour per day

The AAP recommends that "parents prioritize creative, unplugged playtime for infants and toddlers," according to its press release. Children this age can be introduced to screens, but only for one hour a day. The type of media they are exposed to is critical: only high-quality programs, such as "Sesame Street" and other PBS shows should be viewed.

"Shows like 'Sesame Street' are much better than standard TV, because they don't have advertisements, which tend to overstimulate children," said Chassiakos.

Toddler-aged kids haven't developed the cognitive skills to understand advertisements or animations, she explained. Children at this age "can't interpret images like an older kid," meaning they can't decipher between real-world people and fictional cartoons.

While cartoons get a thumbs-down, the academy supports toddlers using face-to-face interactive media, such as Skype or Facetime. Including children in Skype video conversations with grandma, for example, can promote healthy development in kids, Chassiakos says. After the conversation ends, parents can supplement children's learning by repeating what grandma said on the screen.

Children 6 years and older: Limit digital media

Parents are in charge of setting limits on digital media for kids and teens six and older, the academy says. The amount of daily screen time depends on the child and family, but children should prioritize productive time over entertainment time.

For healthy kids, an average day includes "school, homework time, at least one hour of physical activity, social contact and sleep -- which is anywhere from eight to 12 hours for kids," said Chassiakos. "Whatever's left over can be screen time."

The academy agrees that digital media should never replace healthy activities, particularly sleep, social interaction and physical activity. In the press release, Dr. Jenny Radesky stated, "What's most important is that parents be their child's 'media mentor.' That means teaching them how to use it as a tool to create, connect and learn."

Kids and teens have access to thousands of apps, film streaming sites, video games and social media on multiple devices, from personal smartphones to public school-issued tablets.

"The environment of media has changed today," Chassiakos said. Many aspects of digital media are positive: it can be interactive; it facilitates communication; it allows people to create. Kids often view class lecture notes and do homework through a screen, she said.

However, parents have to talk to kids, especially teens, about the risks of digital media -- including "cyberbullying, engaging in sexting, and being accessible to advertisements and online predators," Chassiakos said.

For smaller children, discussing advertisements on TV is important, the academy reports. Many products, such as sugary cereals and fast-food restaurants, are marketed to children, and parents should help kids understand that these foods aren't healthy choices.

"Even though the media landscape is constantly changing, some of the same parenting rules apply," Chassiakos wrote in the academy's press release. "Parents play an important role in helping children and teens navigate the media environment, just as they help them learn how to behave off-line."

Tips for parents for healthy digital media use

Parents are children's main role models, so it's important for moms and dads to have healthy digital media habits. This means being conscious of setting down cellphones, turning off the TV and shutting laptops at night.

"Young children can tell when their parents' heads are always in their cells," Chassiakos said. The lack of attention from a parent can make "kids' levels of irritable behavior worse."

The academy recommends that families designate "media-free times together, such as dinner or driving, as well as media-free locations at home, such as bedrooms," according to the release.

With phones off the dinner table, families can have in-person conversations, which are very important for children's development. Parents benefit from media-free practices, too. Face-to-face interactions with family creates more intimate bonds, and tech-free bedrooms can promote better sleep, Chassiakos explained.

Keeping tech devices out of bedrooms is also a good way to monitor kids' digital media activity. Chassiakos recommends having children use computers in the living room, for example, to ensure they finish any online homework assignments before using entertainment media.

"This doesn't mean you can't play video games with your kids," she said. "What's most important is that families have media-free time, and when digital media is used, it's used mainly for communication rather than entertainment."

For help constructing a digital media plan for the whole family, the AAP recommends using the Family Media Plan tool, which can be found at healthychildren.org.

How you can enable and disable Siri on your iPhone

iOS generally asks the user to enable Siri, when they first set up their Apple Smartphone. However, if Siri is not already enabled on your Apple mobile device for some reason, then you can switch it on in the ‘Settings’ mobile application of your iPhone anytime. Plus, you can disable Siri from the same place. Follow the below mentioned steps to enable or disable Siri on your Apple Smartphone.

Step 1: Start the ‘Settings’ mobile app on your Apple mobile device.

Fun Quiz! If you can only move two matches, what is the biggest possible number?

Answers 1: 999

The biggest possible answer for a 3 digit number is 999, which can be achieved by moving the two matches in the second and third digit as shown in the image below. However why should we limit ourselves to 3 digit number?

Answer 2: 51181

If we move the top and bottom matches from the middle zero, it will create two "ones". We can move the two matches at the back to create another "one", and thus creating the number 51181. Is this the biggest? Actually there are even bigger number

Answer 3: 81151

We can move the top and bottom matches from the middle zero to the front...

and if we flip the number upside down, we have 81151

Answer 4: 5 to the power of 118

Since we are thinking out of the box, lets get more creative. We can take the two matches and form the (^) power sign, which is 5 to the power of 118

How big is 5 to the power of 118? We asked Siri and this is what it said.

Answer 5: Infinity

We can move the match in the middle of the number 8 and make it a divide sign. That will be 50 / 0 and anything divided by zero is equal to infinity.

How to use Touch ID on your iPhone?

Although it’s been a while since the Touch ID has been introduced by Apple in its mobile devices, many people still do not know how to use it. They want to know how they can use the Apple Touch ID on their Apple mobile device.

For your knowledge, let me tell you that the Touch ID was launched with the iPhone 5s model, which means that all those people who have iPhones older than the iPhone 5s model cannot use this technological facility provided by Apple. If your iPhone is damaged, get it to us as we can repair your iPhone.

The biometric fingerprint identity sensor or the Touch ID of Apple has made the Home button of iPhone smart. It is much more than a simple mechanical button, as it identifies the user. This way your iPhone locks as well as authorizes your iTunes, Apple Pay, as well as App Store purchases. It also gives you access to your banking apps and password and many more things.

The Touch ID also helps you to keep other people out of your private information. This method should not be taken as a security system, instead it should be considered as a convenience by iPhone users. This is because a solid alphanumeric passcode is still the best for your security. The Touch ID keeps you relatively safe, as well as makes it easier and quicker for the user to enter their passcode, when they want to use their iPhone.

Now, the question is how you can set up Touch ID on your iPhone. Read on to find out. And, if by chance your iPhone screen breaks, you can bring it to us as we repair iPhone screen.

Setting up Touch ID on your iPhone

Setting up Touch ID on your iPhone refers to registering your fingerprint on your Apple mobile device. This can be done as the first set up procedure on any restored or new iPhone. You can set up the Touch ID on your iPhone easily or can add extra fingers to it at any time. So, in order to set up Touch ID on your iPhone, you need to follow the below mentioned steps.

  • Step 1: Start the ‘Settings’ mobile application on your Apple Smartphone from its ‘Home’ screen.
  • Step 2: Tap on the ‘Touch ID & Passcode’ option.
  • Step 3: Enter your pass code to authorize, in case it asks. The Touch ID of Apple requires a password. Therefore, if you have not made your password till now, the phone will ask you to make one.
  • Step 4: Press the ‘Add a Fingerprint’ button.
  • Step 5: Now, you need to keep your finger that you want to register on your iPhone’s ‘Home’ button. Then, leave your finger there till you feel a buzzing sensation.
  • Step 6: Remove your finger and then keep it back at the same place. Repeat every time, when you feel a vibration.
  • Step 7: When the Touch ID gives you an alert that it has finished its initial step, then tap continue. Now, the Touch ID will ask for peripheral data.
  • Step 8: Now, keep the edges of your finger that you want the Touch ID to register on your iPhone’s ‘Home’ button. Then, leave your finger there till you feel a buzzing sensation.
  • Step 9: Now, remove your finger and put it back down at the same place. Repeat this process with a different edge of your finger till the whole surface of your finger is registered in the Apple Touch ID.
  • Step 10: Tap Continue to end the process.

You can repeat this for every extra finger that you want to register, up till 5 fingers in total. You can even register a combination of fingerprints of other people, such as your family or staff. You can also register a travel companion on a temporary basis in case of any emergencies, without giving them your Apple’s mobile device password or passcode.

How to take fabulous photos using iPhone

IPhone is an amazing device no doubt, and clicking fabulous photos with iPhone is even more amazing. What if you knew some insider tips to stay one step ahead of your friends who also have iPhone? You will become the star photographer of your friend circle after you read and implement these tips.

The establishing shots

Establishing shot is a well-known term in the film industry. Every movie you watch will give you the snapshots of some of the well recognized places displaying wide angles. In case you are not at a popular spot, you can click a photograph alongside something that can give a sense of relation to the viewer. If you are on a vacation, you can explore new places by exploring information from the locals.

Compose a natural photo

As a professional photographer would do, take a subject and decide what exactly you want to highlight. Now, harmonize your subject with its surroundings. Do not let the clutter around your subject spoil your photograph. Just focus on a few things and hold them in a proper frame. It will be more pleasing to your audience.

Keep your iPhone steady and stable

Many people make the mistake of not keeping their iPhone stable while they click a photograph. The trick here is to stop using the digital shutter button. Yes, you can rather use Volume Up hard button on the iPhone to click a photo. You can also use earphone core for clicking a photo while holding your phone still in your hand. If nothing works, you can simply use a tripod for alignment of your iPhone and clicking steady photos.

Zoom using your feet and hands

Do not use the digital zoom in your iPhone if you need to magnify an object; it makes pixels blocky and big, wiping out the delicate and exquisite details. Just stand closer to your subject if you can, and bring your hands closer to it.

Click a picture from a lower angle

Whether you are clicking the photograph of a scenery or a person, you can just add more interest to it by shooting from a different angle. Lower perspective is the easiest way to add importance to your picture. This will also make your friend look taller in the picture. Recall how most people take pictures with the Eiffel Tower.

Use natural light

To shoot memorable pictures, it is essential to make use of natural light. If you position your subject on the opposite side of the sun and iPhone, your portrait will be shown in strong sunlight. Now, change the position and place your subject between the iPhone and the sun to click a great silhouette shot. When you click portraits in soft and warm light, it can make the picture displayed in harmonious and gentle way.

The important thing while clicking photos is to take care of your iPhone and do not drop it. It is not easy to repair iPhone screen if you break it by chance. To repair iPhone, you can bring it to us to repair.
