The Amazing iPhone App You Probably Didn’t Know Existed
Let’s face it, most of us are probably using about 30% of the iPhone apps that are on them. We generally stick to what we know and don’t explore much of the other stuff on our phones. Most iPhone users are unaware of some of the incredible apps on them.
I put myself into this category as well. When using the apps on the my iPhone I’m aware that it has many wonderful useful features that I either don’t know how to use or didn’t know existed.
For techies and geeks, this is probably a classic “duh” moment for them because they live for this kind of stuff. They know everything that a phone offers inside and out. When you ask them about a certain feature or app, they look at you like you’re a few fries shy of a happy meal.
The other group that knows a lot more about their smartphones are anyone under 30. They probably have had a phone for more than two thirds of their lives and know all the stuff they can do and do it with incredible speed.
There’s one app that I just learned about last week when my wife called and told me to measure the size of the couch she is selling for her mother. She was at the house a few days before and forgot to bring her tape measure that she needed to post the exact size for the Facebook Market post she wanted to make of the couch for sale.
That’s when I mentioned it to one of the I.T. guys that I needed to borrow a tape measure and they looked at me like I was from another century or planet. They asked me if I had an iPhone and I said in fact I do, what about it?
That’s when they told me to use the Measure App on the iPhone and I said “what is that?” As it turns out, it was already on my home screen and never used. We opened the app and lo and behold I was blown away with how awesome it is. You can measure just about anything with it from couches to walls, windows and doors and a whole lot more.
The Measure app is pretty easy to use but take sometime to figure it out, that’s why I have added this youtube post from a tech expert to explain how to use it a lot better than I can!
