Almost everyone uses a cell phone nowadays, but only a tiny
portion of people have tried to explore everything that’s possible with one.
Most people only use the basic features of their cellular phone such as texting,
making phone calls and surfing the web. If you’re among them, we’ve got a few
things that you should consider trying out. Below we’ll list a few tricks that
most people will find useful or at least interesting. Let’s start.
Monitor or Spy on someone:
Did you know that you can use your phone as a baby monitor or as a tool for
spying on someone? Yes, we know that’s not nice, but hear us out. This can
works with a wide variety of mobile phones, and all you need is the
speakerphone option with a plan that has free minutes. Well, that’s at least
what we recommended if you don’t want to spend an insane amount of money on
your phone bill, but it’s not mandatory. You have to put your telephone on
silent mode and set up the Auto Answer feature. If you are unable to turn the
volume of your speaker off, you can place duck-tape over it to cover up the
noise that will be coming from your side of the line. Another option is to go
to PhoneRated.com, a site that offers a free silent ringer in case your
telephone doesn’t already have this option. Then, once everything else is
ready, put your phone in a spot that’s out of sight in the room you want to
monitor and make the call.
Make Free Calls To Foreign Countries:
Apple’s iPhone has an amazing option which most people are not familiar with:
you can make free calls to foreign countries. All you need to do is download a
program named Tuitalk. It’s free and lets you talk phone-to-phone or
phone-to-landline with 40 worldwide and domestic countries. If you’re unsure how
to get it working, check out the app tutorial video and it will walk you
through everything.
Make a free Ringtone:
All new phones and many older ones have some way of recording sound. If you’re
creative, you can use this to make free ringtones. All you need to do is locate
the app; you’ll most likely find it the applications or tools folder. You can
use it for recording your voice, a song you like, TV, or pretty much anything
else. To finish, save your recording on your phone and set any one of them as
the main or as a contact ringtone.
Serve as a flashlight:
A simple, yet handy trick is to use your phone instead of a flashlight in case
of a power outage or if you’re looking for something in the dark. The screen on
your phone gives enough light to replace your flashlight in a pinch. If you are
surrounded by darkness, this can help increase your field of view. In just a
second your cell phone can turn into a mini flashlight.
