14 Ways To Use Your Phone's Camera
|
| Most people think that the only point of a smartphone's camera is to take photos. But once you have a camera on your person, this portable device has many other possible uses, helping you in myriad ways. Some of these you may have guessed, while some may surprise you. |
| 1. Always have your WiFi name and password. |
 |
| 2. Take a screenshot of directions, in case you don't get internet service when you need it the most. |
 |
| Imagine losing service when you're in a new place you don't know. Well, now you can just look at the photo and you're not lost anymore. |
| 3. Snap a photo of your dry cleaning ticket. |
 |
| 4. Lending something to someone? Take a photo so you don't forget what you gave, and to whom. |
 |
| 5. Your smartphone camera can test if your remote batteries still have juice. |
 |
| Point the front of the remote to the camera, look at the phone screen and press some buttons on the remote. Most phone cameras can detect the infra-red light that is invisible to the human eye. |
| 6. Travelling? Take a picture of your contact info in case you lose the page it's written on. |
 |
| 7. Use your phone to see other angles of your haircut. |
 |
| |
| 8. Take a photo of the content of boxes when moving, so you'll know what is stored where. |
 |
| 9. Going with your kids? Take a photo of them in the morning. |
 |
| This way, if they get lost (God forbid), you have the most up-to-date photo of your children. |
| 10. Photograph landmarks around your hotel when you travel. |
 |
| If you're not sure if you're in the right place, just check your phone. You can also show it to cab drivers and they'll know where to take you. |
| 11. The same goes for when you park in a big parking lot. No more walking around trying to remember which floor you parked your car on. |
 |
| |
| 12. Take a picture of your fridge before you go grocery shopping, so you know what you need to get. |
 |
| |
| 13. Have your prescription number at hand. |
 |
| 14. If you're near-sighted and don't have your glasses, take a photo with your phone - things will be much clearer. |
