Phone
Your cell phone. Yes, your new iPhone! Holds some of your most sensitive personal
information. Things like your passwords and account numbers, emails, text messages,
photos, and videos. If your phone ends up in the wrong hands, someone could steal your
identity, buy stuff with your money, or hack into your email or social media accounts. To
stop breaking your new phone again after 1 year of use, keep reading until you finish your
husband’s guide. OKAY?
1. Lock Your Phone and use strong passwords/biometrics
Set your phone to lock when you’re not using it and create a PIN or passcode to unlock
it. Use at least a 6-digit passcode, or even better, use letters. Something like
“PhatyeuHang2927” or “Catudeptrai123”. You also might be able to unlock your phone
with your fingerprint, your retina, or your beautiful face.
• Apple Support: Use a passcode with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
2. Update Your Software
You usually forget this step; I must remind you every month or so. So, from now on.
Updates to your operating system often include critical patches and protections against
security threats!!!!!! Set your phone to update automatically. Otherwise, keep an eye out
for updates, and don’t delay in running them. Update your apps, too.
• Apple Support: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
3. Back Up Your Data
Regularly back up the data on your phone to the cloud or your computer. That way, if you
lose your phone, you’ll still have access to your personal information. If you still don’t
know how to do this, again. Contact Phat, your husband, for more information.
• Apple Support: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
4. Get Help Finding a Lost Phone
Mobile operating systems have a program that helps you find your phone if you lose it or
lock it or erase it if you think someone stole it. Go to your settings and turn on this
feature. Yes, this feature does exist in iPhone, you don’t know how to do that, even
though I’ve put a link below; Contact Phat, your husband, for more information.
• Apple Support: Set up Find My on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac
5. Don’t connect to unknown Wi-Fi Hotspots
You always overlook this issue whenever we discuss it. When you use public Wi-Fi
hotspots (for example in workplace or coffee shops), there is no way to easily find out
who controls the hotspot, or to prove that it belongs to who you think it does. If you
connect to these hotspots, somebody else could access:
• What you're working on whilst connected
• Your private login details that many apps and web services maintain whilst you're
logged on
The simplest precaution is not to connect to the Internet using unknown hotspots and
instead use your mobile 3G or 4G mobile network, which will have built-in security (Yes,
for real, don’t be afraid to use your 4GGGGGG). This means you can also use 'tethering'
(where your other devices such as laptops share your 3G/4G connection), or a wireless
'dongle' provided by your mobile network. You can also use Virtual Private Networks
(VPNs), a technique that encrypts your data before it is sent across the Internet. If you're
using third party VPNs, you'll need the technical ability to configure it yourself and
should only use VPNs provided by reputable service providers. Contact Phat, your
husband, for the best VPN application.
6. Other things to consider
• Avoid using autofill – Some websites and applications automatically fill in your
username when you visit them. This is due to the autofill feature. Turn it off as
soon as possible. Set your password to “PhatyeuHang2927”, that way you’ll
never forget the password or need to autofill it.
• Log out – After using mobile applications, especially those linked to one another,
such as google applications, ensure that you log off each time you are done using
them. Otherwise…Catu………
• Use only trusted stores – You should download apps from secure stores, such
as Apple's App Store. This depends on the platform your mobile device uses.
Stop downloading unnecessary applications to your phone, app effects,
wallpaper…etc.
Securing your mobile device is challenging, but it should be your priority. As new
vulnerabilities are found every day, it’s essential to make sure that you are aware of any
suspicious activity on your device.
7. The best security tips
• Use common sense. If it looks shady? Don’t click, don’t download, don’t touch it,
leave it be. You think it might be a scam/phishing attempt? Don’t click, don’t
download, don’t touch it, leave it be.
• The most effective, the best anti-virus program isn’t the one you found on Google,
or YouTube. It’s your common sense and your ability to critical thinking.
• No anti-virus program available for commercial use will ever be as good as your
ability to detect and stop the threat. Remember, virus files will and can only harm
you, if it’s inside your device and run by yourself. None of that would have worked
if you prevented it from ending up in your device.
Tips for Extending Battery Lifespan
PLEASE PLEASE PLAEASE READ AND FOLLOW THIS GUIDEEEEEEEEEEE OR I WILL
COME AND BITE YOUR ASS BITE YOUR LIPS AND MAKE MINI MINI. This is super
important for a long live healthy phone. So the guide below are serious without any
jokes.
Automatic battery health management.
To reduce battery aging, built-in software and hardware systems are included to manage
charging patterns and battery temperature.
• Optimized Battery Charging and Optimized Charge Limit adapt to your daily
usage and preserve your battery lifespan over time. Optimized Battery Charging is
available on all platforms as of iOS 13. Based on your daily charging routine, it
may automatically defer charging to 100% until shortly before you need to use
the battery. Apple Watch Ultra can further reduce time spent at high states of
charge by learning when to charge to an Optimized Charge Limit and when to
allow for a full charge.
• Charging may pause temporarily while in extreme temperature conditions and
will resume once the battery’s temperature returns to its normal operating range.
Starting in iOS 16, you may see a notification appear on the lock screen when
charging has paused for this reason. Starting in iOS 16, paused charging
information is also available in Settings > Battery.
Avoid extreme ambient temperatures.
Your device is designed to perform well in a wide range of ambient temperatures, with
62° to 72° F (16° to 22° C) as the ideal comfort zone. It’s especially important to avoid
exposing your device to ambient temperatures higher than 95° F (35° C), which can
permanently damage battery capacity. That is, your battery won’t power your device as
long as it is on a given charge. Charging the device in high ambient temperatures can
damage it further. Software may limit charging above 80% when the recommended
battery temperatures are exceeded. Even storing a battery in a hot environment can
damage it irreversibly. When using your device in a very cold environment, you may
notice a decrease in battery life, but this condition is temporary. Once the battery’s
temperature returns to its normal operating range, its performance will return to normal
as well. When it’s cold outside. It’s super important to wear warm clothing.
iPhone, iPad, iPod, and Apple Watch Comfort Zone
Remove certain cases during charging.
Charging your device when it’s inside certain styles of cases may generate excess heat,
which can affect battery capacity. If you notice that your device gets hot when you
charge it, take it out of its case first.
Store it half-charged when you store it long term.
If you want to store your device long term, two key factors will affect the overall health of
your battery: the environmental temperature and the percentage of charge on the
battery when it’s powered down for storage. Therefore, we recommend the following:
• Do not fully charge or fully discharge your device’s battery — charge it to around
50%. If you store a device when its battery is fully discharged, the battery could
fall into a deep discharge state, which renders it incapable of holding a charge.
Conversely, if you store it fully charged for an extended period of time, the battery
may lose some capacity, leading to shorter battery life.
• Power down the device to avoid additional battery use.
• Place your device in a cool, moisture-free environment that’s less than 90° F (32°
C).
• If you plan to store your device for longer than six months, charge it 50% every six
months.
Depending on how long you store your device, it may be in a low-battery state when you
remove it from long-term storage. After it’s removed from storage, it may require 20
minutes of charging with the original adapter before you can use it.
Tips for Extending Battery Lifespan – TLDR (TOO LONG DIDN’T READ)
Apple considers any iPhone with a battery capacity of 80% or above to be in optimal
condition. In fact, Apple feels so strongly about battery health that its 1-year warranty
covers any battery at 80% capacity or more. It's not unusual to see iPhones that, after
one year, still have a battery capacity of 95% or above. Therefore. To prolong your
iPhone's battery lifespan, it's best to keep the charge between 20-80%. This range
minimizes the stress on the battery, reducing wear and tear over time. Avoid letting the
battery completely drain or fully charge regularly, as this can accelerate battery
degradation.
