Pretty much everyone who has seen the iPhone thinks it's one of the best inventions in the world. But, what is it about the iPhone that has everyone so excited. You'll find out when you read this article. You will find a few iPhone related tips that you, or anyone who owns an iPhone, probably didn't know about

If you've gotten your iphone wet, refrain from turning it on. Use a towel to dry it, and then put it in a sealed plastic bag of dry, white rice. Let it sit overnight. If it's dry the next morning, turn it on, and you just may find it working again.

To dry a soaked phone, use rice. Dropping your phone in a puddle, the toilet or another wet location is almost inevitable. Don't risk damaging the phone by using a blow dryer. Instead, use a soft cloth to wipe off the phone, then place it in a rice-filled ziploc bag. Once the rice has had several hours to absorb moisture (leaving your phone in the bag overnight is ideal), your phone should be dry again.

If you use Safari to browse through the Internet on your iPhone, try this trick for typing in a new URL. Instead of actually typing out ".com," you can hold down the ".com" button. As you hold the button down, it will scroll through the most popular website extensions, including .org, .net and .edu.

It is now possible for Siri to let your program a location-based reminder. Rather than saying a time-based reminder to Siri, you can use a different command. But you can also ask Siri to remind you when you get home. Your phone will detect where you are and tell you about whatever reminder you set. That way, if you are unsure of what time you will arrive home, you will still receive a reminder.

Did you know that unlike many cell phones, you can assign a ringtone for each feature on your phone? Well, it is the truth! All you have to do is go to the settings, tap on the sounds feature and assign the tone. For contacts, tap on a contact and assign a ringtone to this specific entry!

When in your iPhone mail, it is simple to save a copy of a picture that you might want to view later. Just touch the image for a few seconds and it will be saved to your stored pictures. You can then access it at any time if you want to view it again, post it on the web or forward it to a friend.

Are there websites you visit a lot from your phone? Do you ever wish you had a little icon for them on the home screen? Well, if you have, open the webpage in Safari and click on the Go To icon at the top of the screen. You can then select to add it to your home screen.

Again, almost everyone owns iPhones nowadays. No you are aware of all the great features that an iPhone has to offer, apply the knowledge you have gained from this article to get the most out of it.
