(12) Carrying on with the safety theme of the last two iPhone 4s tips. The iPhone
has a locking facility that is opened with a 4 digit PIN chosen by the user
when the pass-code is selected. To set up the pass-code simply go to SETTINGS on the iPhone HOME SCREEN, and then to GENERAL, and then to PASSCODE LOCK
Now if your iPhone is
lost or stolen the other party will have a few attempts to break the pass-code until
the iPhone
4s will lock out, and be of little use to them

provided by your Mobile Phone Network
as some of the monthly protection fees do seem a bit of a racket. I mean, £10 a month is £120 per year and over
a two year contract that’s an astonishing £240 paid out just for peace of mind. Great if you need two new phones during the
contract, but crap if you nurture the iPhone
during your tenure
In all instances pick up the phone to your insurer if you don’t understand the insurance policy or
there seems to be any doubt as to whether or not your iPhone is insured. Find out under what circumstances the iPhone won’t be covered.

stolen. Better still, you are only
asking questions, so these questions can be asked before you take delivery of
your new iPhone
