MOBILE PHONES

Smart phones these days are a major tool for the day-to-day tasks most people perform in their connected lives. Mobile phones have grown from a device that would basically only make  phone calls and hold contacts to now allow novices to be able to do more and experts even more again. Below are some of what a modern mobile phone can do.

LOST OR STOLEN PHONES

Any modern smart phone has the built in ability to keep your data backed up to a number of cloud services so you never have a reason to lose contacts, SMSes, photos or anything really.

Apple has it's own iCloud service and Android will sync with your Google Account automatically. Both devices can also be connected to other cloud services like DropBox or OneDrive for even greater functionality. However it seems some people still do not take advantage of such services and when their phone is lost or stolen they are devastated to find their contacts and important data gone forever.

​

If you're not confident your phone is backing up your important data or you want to get more use from your smart phone contact me today.
