Check Email with Siri
Enter the complete details of the tip you want to share.
Hi everybody! Wanna see a brand new trick you can do with your Iphone? Do you want to check your email without having to read your email on your Iphone? Then you have come to the right place! The first thing you must do is pick up your Iphone (this works on almost every version). Then you can press the home button on your Iphone for a few seconds. You must set the language to English and turn on Siri. Siri is basically the voice control app that can perform tasks by voice command. You must command Siri to read your email. After that a window will pop up and Siri will start reading your email. It won´t read all the email but it will say when you recieved your emails, from whom and the subject. After that you can say if you want Siri to read more and if you say yes it will carry on reading your email. This is a very cool tip if you receive a lot of emails and are very busy, so if you are a businessperson this tip is perfect for you! Please check the screenshots to follow this guide.

Hello everyone. If you are planning to visit Turkey or living in Turkey, i can suggest you a service provider which is the cheapest and yet qualified SP.

Iphone 5s Still Rocks
Enter the complete details of the tip you want to share.
I have been using my iphone 5s for more than 4 years and it still works great. I only had to change my battery (i had to do it myself) and apart from that i got no problem. Changing battery is the pain in the ass but you have to do it for once in 4 years! Also the best thing is i heard that its getting ios 12 too! Its 2018 and i have still most updated IOS version on my 4 years old phone. In my opinion IOS is the best operating system for smart phones because it is very stable and simple. I know there are a lot of people are saying Apple makes their products slower in time but to be honest i never experienced slow down issue. The only problem was battery and i solved it by getting another one. To sum up if you are looking for durable phone which you can use for many years i would suggest you to get an iphone. I think iphone SE would be a great choice. Iphone 5s is living its last days but SE however will be in the game for a very long time. By the way its not that expensive too.
