    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone

    Using an iPhone can be very interesting as it comes with a lot of features that other Android devices don’t have and it’s unique nature from the other mobile phones on the market.

    From my experience, over 90% of my friends want to use an iPhone. But little do they know about how iPhone users suffer especially the cost of data and more importantly the storage space; almost everything on iPhones is to be purchased.

    Unlike most Android phones, iPhones do not support memory cards. Meaning, once you use up your primary storage space, that’s all.

    But, the interesting thing is that there are several ways you can get more space on your iPhone and in this article, we are going to show how to get more space on your iPhone. Some of these ways of getting the space on your iPhone involve making purchases.

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone

    As discussed earlier, there are several ways of getting more space on your iPhone, some of which comes at a cost. But, this article is going to cover some of the proven and effective methods of getting more space on your iPhone.

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone Using Recommendation

    This feature is available on all iPhones with iOS 11 or later and gives you recommendations on places where you can save space. This method is going to show you can view all of the recommendations that your device has.

    The most important thing is that the amount of space you get will depend on how you use your iPhone.

    • On your iPhone, open the Settings app
    • Select General
    • Choose the iPhone Storage option
    • Tap on the Show All button on the ride side of Recommendations
    • Select the recommendations from the list to free up space on your iPhone
    • Please note that this option involves deleting some files on your iPhone

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone By Deleting Apps Manually

    This is the most popular method of getting more space on your iPhone as it is available on almost all iPhones. With this method, you can check the app that is eating up space on your iPhone and then delete them from your iPhone.

    • Go to Settings
    • Tap on General
    • Select iPhone Storage
    • Read through the apps to see the one that occupies more space but is not a priority
    • Tap on the selected app
    • Tap on Delete App
    • Wait for a few seconds for the storage to be updated

    This method is also easy and free but can sometimes be worrying as you might need to delete some apps you love but, you can always go back and download the app from the App Store.

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone By Deleting Photos and Videos

    Most often, photos and videos occupy most of the storage space on our iPhones without realizing it. If you doubt this then, go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and then check the space that the Photos app occupies on your phone.

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone By Deleting Photos and Videos Individually

    • Open the Photos app
    • Open the selected folder
    • Tap on the photo or video you want to delete
    • Tap on the bin on the right bottom corner
    • Click on Delete Photo

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone By Deleting Multiple Photos and Videos

    You can also delete multiple photos and videos together and the steps are:

    • Open the Photos app
    • Open the selected folder
    • Click on the Settings option on the top right corner on the screen
    • Tap on the photos or videos you want to delete
    • Tap on the bin on the right bottom corner
    • Select Delete X Photos; where X represents the number of photos/videos you are deleting

    How to Get More Space on Your iPhone By Buying More iCloud Storage

    Once you use an iPhone, you will automatically get 5GB free iCloud storage for photos, videos and files.

     But, in case you have tried all the above methods and still need more space on your iPhone for photos, videos and files then this is your last choice.

    With this option, you will buy more iCloud storage space that will be charged from your PayPal or credit/debit card every month.

    The available storage plans and their prices are: 50GB – $0.99, 200GB – $2.99 and 2TB – $9.99; all are billed monthly.

    • Go to Settings
    • Tap on your name
    • Select Manage Storage
    • Tap Buy More Storage or Change Storage Plan (depending on the type of iPhone)
    • Choose your preferred plan
    • Tap on buy and finish the transactions
    • Upon successful transaction, your iCloud storage will be updated.

    Conclusion

    Using an iPhone is fun but the storage space is a problem for most people, so, I recommend that you buy an iPhone with a big primary storage space (above 64GB is ideal).

    Notwithstanding, if you cannot buy iPhones with big storage space, then it advisable to save your photos on the cloud other than iCloud. For example, Google Drive or Dropbox.

  • How To Conserve Your Phone Battery Life To Make It Last

    How To Conserve Your Phone Battery Life To Make It Last

    Smartphones are generally beautiful, fancy and fun to hold and to own. Generally, smartphones provide users with the ability to do thousands of things on their handset without the need for a personal computer.

    From capturing memories with the camera to recording live events and down to playing games and watching movies, smartphones are the toast of the moment.

    However, one major problem we tend to face with the smartphone is the issue of battery life.

    Most smartphones don’t stand the test of time when it comes to battery life. And this can be likened to certain attitudes of users and some features on the various devices.

    If your smartphone is fond of consistently going low at a very quick rate, then this article is for you. We shall discuss some ways of conserving your phone battery life to make it last longer.

    Turn Off Automatic Email Fetching

    Turn Off Automatic Email Fetching

    Some features make us feel very comfortable using our smartphones. However, most of these features secretly eat into our battery and cause it to drain faster.

    One of such features is the email feature. For most phones, emails are set to be automatically crawled or synchronized by the device. So anytime there’s a new mail, the phone taps it instantly and gives you notice that you have an email.

    This may look and sound fun. But, in reality, it eats a huge chunk of your phone’s battery since your device has to check every minute for new mails, thereby making use of your processer which also relies on the battery for power. So, turning off this function is likely to increase your battery life by at least some 10%.

    Reduce Your Screen Brightness

    Do you fancy having your screen light brighter so you can see everything super clearly? If yes, know that your battery suffers anytime you increase your screen brightness.

    Checking your battery usage would inform you that your display uses your battery more than any other thing.

    The core element of your screen display is the brightness. So the higher your brightness, the more battery your display uses.

    It’s only right therefore that you set your screen brightness to the barest minimum which allows you to view things well and not strain your eyes too much.

    Note also that a brighter screen light doesn’t only affect your battery. It also affects your health, specifically your eyes.

    Use Your Phone At Room Temperature

    SmartPhones use Lithium-ion batteries which usually perform well at room temperature.

    When the temperature is too low or too high, it causes the battery to discharge very quickly and you may also notice the phone heating up in such situations.

    It is best to use your phone in an enclosed space with a normal temperature between 0 to 39 degrees Celcius if you want to keep your battery life in perfect shape.

    Even if at some point you have to use your phone under the direct sun, try to reduce the duration to the barest minimum so as to reduce the effect it has on your phone and battery life.

    Reduce Gaming Time And Minimize Watching Videos

    As you may already know, activities that require enough RAM space and so much processer power to run are likely to have so much impact on the battery life.

    Games and videos are some of these memory-intensive and processor-intensive activities you can carry out on your phone.

    The more you play games, especially the 3D and 4D action games on your smartphone, the more energy these games require from your phone in order to enable your processor to run these games smoothly.

    Same way, when you watch movies and videos on your smartphone, it requires the use of a huge chunk of your processor and RAM which then suck more power from your battery – your phone’s energy source.

    So, to save that extra power, avoid playing games on your phone. If you can’t avoid it altogether, then try to reduce it as much as possible.

    Conclusion

    The smartphone is the home for many applications and features which make life easier and smarter for the smart user.

    However, all these features and applications rely on one basic thing which all phones have -battery.

    So, how strong your smartphone is usually depends on how long your battery lasts while being used.

    Sadly, for most people, this is a big issue. Their batteries keep running low at the least chance available.

    In this article, we proferred solutions to the problem of depreciating battery life.

    I hope you found this article to be very helpful and that you’ll share with your friends and family.

  • How to Change Your Car Ownership in Ghana

    How to Change Your Car Ownership in Ghana

    Changing your car ownership in Ghana is very easy and simple. But, without proper guidance, you might fall victim to people who use fraudulent means to extort money from people in the name of helping them change vehicle ownership.

    Due to technological advancement, Ghana has introduced a system where you can now change vehicle ownership on your own without passing through any third party or “goro” boys.

    There are many events that lead to a change of vehicle ownership; selling your car, gifting your car or even failing to settle a financial debt which you used your car as collateral.

    In Ghana, the main agency that is mandated by law to change vehicle ownership is the Driver Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA) and any other agency that issues a vehicle ownership is illegal.

    NOTE: From here onwards, the vendor refers to the owner of the car and the buyer refers to the person who is going to become the new owner of the car.

    What Are The Requirements for Changing Car Ownership in Ghana?

    • A signed application letter for change of vehicle by the owner of the car
    • The car to be transferred
    • Two (2) recent coloured passport photos of both the vendor and the buyer
    • Valid national ID of both the vendor and the buyer

    How to Change Your Car Ownership in Ghana

    1. Present the car transfer letter to the DVLA office
    2. Present the vehicle to the DVLA for inspection
    3. Pay the prescribed fee if your car is approved
    4. Present form C and VRC for processing
    5. Obtain roadworthiness certificate for the vehicle

    Now let’s breakdown each process.

    Present the car transfer letter to the DVLA office

    First of all, you need to download and fill a car ownership transfer document from the official DVLA website or you can also obtain a copy from any of the DVLA offices nationwide.

    After you’re done with the filling of the forms, you’re required to submit it to any DVLA office that is closer to you.

    When you’re submitting the forms, you are also expected to add the car transfer letter by the owner of the vehicle and the two (2) passport photos of the vendor and the buyer.

    Present the vehicle to the DVLA for inspection

    When you are submitting your documents to the DVLA office, you are required to send the car along for inspection by the DVLA.

    During the inspection, both the vendor and the buyer are supposed to be present.

    The documents you submitted will be reviewed and cross-checked with the data they have on their official database to see whether they match or not.

    After verification from the authority that the documents you submitted matches the official data in their database, an officer will be sent for custom and garage inspection of your car.

    The inspection of the car is to make sure the person transferring the ownership of the car is the true owner of the car or not.

    Pay the prescribed fee if your car is approved

    The officer will conduct a physical examination of the car that is about to be transferred from the buyer to the vendor.

    The checks will include the condition of the car to see whether it’s worthy to be on the road or not.

    Therefore you need to make sure that the condition of the car is good enough to be on the road before proceeding.

    Once the officer is done with the checking and the car is roadworthy and the details are all good, you will be required to make payments for the processing of the request to continue.

    Present form C and VRC for processing

    After making the necessary payments, you will need to acquire, complete and sign the forms C (Customs) and the VRC (Vehicle Registration Certificate). You will also affix your passport photo to this document.

    Now, after sending the documents for processing, your part will be done and it will now be left with the DVLA to carry on with the rest of the process.

    The time before your request will be granted will depend on the current condition of the car and the history of the car. Therefore, in order to speed up the process, your document should be authentic and accurate.

    Obtain roadworthiness certificate for the vehicle

    Finally, after consideration and reviewing the documents, a new roadworthiness certificate will be obtained irrespective of the status of the present road worthiness validity.

    Conclusion

    So wrapping up, the process of changing car ownership in Ghana is very easy and transparent and therefore there’s no need for you to pay money to any “goro” boy to do it for you.

    Read through the article very well and take note of the processes involved and make sure to share with your friends and loved as it will also help them from being scammed.

    Have you ever changed car ownership in Ghana, please share your experience in the comment section below and if there’s anything I left out please feel free to let me know? Thank you.
