Technology has always helped
humanity achieve so many great accomplishments. One of the most useful pieces
of tech has to be our smartphones. They are frequently used every day and some
people use them for almost every part of their daily routine. So, if you're
curious to know about some of the special ways you can use your smartphone,
you’ve come to the right place. Below
are six useful things you probably didn’t know you could do with your
smartphone.
1.
Smart Key System
Believe it or not, you can
use a smart key system on your smartphone to help you unlock, lock, and start
your car. It's a wonderful app that can be synced with your car's system,
allowing you to use your phone instead of your keys to operate and start the
engine without any hassle. This is a perfect system/app to have on your phone,
especially if you're one of the people who always seem to misplace their car
keys. This way you won't have any problems getting into your car.
2.
Start a YouTube Channel
You'd be surprised just how
simple a YouTube Channel can be if you have a decent smartphone. It's not
mandatory to have a big flashy camera to start a channel and make videos. The
video specialists and content creators at looxcie.com
believe that actionable information and knowledge can help you start your
YouTube channel easily, making it popular and famous by understanding what
people would like to see and creating some useful content for them. You can set
it all up easily by getting a tripod for your phone and it will serve as your
camera to make videos on the internet.
3.
Measuring Apps
Smartphones can be used for
measuring any distance, height, or width through your camera lens. It can work
perfectly if you don't have a measuring tape or any instrument/tool to measure
something. The phone app would use the camera to check it for you, and it can
provide you accurate readings, whether it's centimeters, meters, or feet. This
is very useful for homeowners or construction workers who need an alternative
way to measure the floors and walls. Also, it's extremely helpful for
carpenters to finish their woodwork accurately. It can be a way to double-check
their work to make sure the measurements were done right and it could also be
an alternative if you misplace your measuring tape.
4.
Checking Your Heart Rate
Your smartphone can be used
to monitor your heart rate by
utilizing a special app without using an expensive fitness band/bracelet that
can check your pulse. The app would show you the number exactly by using your
fingertip. You can see a detailed report after the phone app scans your finger
and you would be able to monitor your heart beats per minute. Just remember
that the average person's heart rate every minute is between 60 and 100 beats
while you're resting, but it's normal if the rate speeds up while you're
jogging or doing any exercises.
5.
Operate Some Electronic Devices
You can get a special app
that turns your phone into a universal remote for a lot of your electronic
devices. This doesn't work for every brand, but most devices are compatible
with the app with which you can turn on your TV, stereo or music system, AV
receiver, and stream box. It can be such a great help too during those days
when you can't find the remote anywhere or the battery is dead. Sometimes it
can be used as a practical joke on your buddies or family members at home when
they're watching something on TV too. They wouldn't know what's wrong because
the remote is in their hands!
6.
Staying Safe
You should always stay safe
in the streets, but going back home at night can be dangerous for some people.
So, you can install a safety app that can send
an invitation to your loved ones where they can track your location and see
when you finally made it home. The app has a distress call that can trigger
automatically if the person didn't go home after a selected timer. It can give
you a chance to call or notify the police that something is wrong when they
don't answer.
It's amazing how you could do
so much with your phone. Every day developers come up with new and efficient
ways to make people use their smart devices for numerous activities. Whether
you use your smartphone for fun, knowledge, or work, you can rely on it to make
your life so much easier. Just remember to charge it regularly because certain
apps and actions can drain the battery quite easily.
