An End to Getting Frustrated with your Smartphone

Finally discover how to get it to do what you want, easily (and find out what else you can do with it, too)

-

At last, using your

smartphone can be easy,

simple and stress-free.

Find out how...

Modern mobile phones - smartphone­s

as they’re called - can do so much

more than just make phone calls.

From browsing the web wherever you

are, checking train times, acting as a

sat nav... And best of all they can make

it so easy to keep in touch with family

and friends – in so many ways, from

sharing photos to making video calls.

But using them isn’t always as easy as

you’d want – and that’s putting it mildly!

Do the manufactur­ers

do it on purpose?

Sometimes it can seem like the

manufactur­ers deliberate­ly make them

complicate­d - and how you do things is

often hidden away. It might be easy once

you know, but until you’ve been shown

the easy way, it can drive you mad.

In fact only yesterday I was talking to

someone whose Mum had got a new

all-singing-all-dancing phone – but

she couldn’t work out how to answer

a phone call on it! She’s not daft it’s

just that the phone didn’t come

with a manual telling her what to do.

Whether you have similar problems or

you’re trying to do something slightly

more advanced, the thing is, it can be

easy to use them... once you know

how. But until you’ve been shown, it

can be like talking a different language.

That’s why we’ve published two books: iPhones one Step at a Time and

Android Smartphone­s One Step at a Time.

Plain English... and that’s not all

They explain how to use the phone, in

plain simple language with pictures of

the screen showing you exactly where

to tap or slide your fingers. No jargon!

What’s covered?

I can’t list it all here. But amongst

other things, you’ll discover:

• The basics of controllin­g it - swiping,

tapping, opening apps, etc.

• How to use it as a sat-nav... in the

car or even on foot.

• Send emails from your phone.

• Most phones have a good camera

so you can take photos: here’s how

to use it properly (and for videos).

• Share photos with friends around

the world - quickly and easily.

• See updates, photos and video clips

from friends and family - as soon

as they “post” them.

• Video phone calls - a great way

to keep up with family who live a

long way away

• Browse the web at home or out and

about.

• Instant messaging and how to use it

• Make it easier to read the screen.

• Choosing and downloadin­g apps

And obviously, you can make phone

calls and send and receive text messages.

(“Voicemail” is covered, too.) All

explained nice and simply. (Find out

more in the free infopack - read on...)

What one reader had to say:

“Thanks for a fantastic smart phone book. Very pleasant staff as usual.

I think this book should be sold with every smart phone. I have learnt so much from it, the info you get with the phone is non-existent.

Smart phones are quite complex, and your books speak in plain English.”
