Updating iPhones is always exciting, but phone design changes as well as software upgrades can make it difficult for the end user to adapt to. A typical problem is the fact that no manual is included. It’s simply assumed that you’ll know what to do, or figure it out. Well we all like to assume that since we’ve owned a smartphone before, how difficult can it really be? Well, think again my friend. David Pogue and his MISSING MANUAL series to the rescue.

David Pogue is an acclaimed New York Times columnist, tech correspondent for CNBC, CBS, NPR and the weekly television news magazine, Sunday Morning. He is the creator of the Missing Manual series that features handbooks on various products written my numerous experts including David. These handbooks are truly the “missing manual” that should have been included with the product.

The iPhone Missing Manual covers not only the latest iPhone models, 11, 11 PRO and 11 MAX, but also answers many questions related to previous models as well including the iOS 13.2 software. It’s designed as a quick reference. Referring to the Index at the back will zero in on your various questions and “how to” issues and fixes. Simply put, it’s a solution finder as well as your own personal tutor.

TIP: One of the numerous subjects covered in this book is Apple’s new photo format known in the iPhone 11 series as the HEIC files. These files are designed to replace the traditional JPEG format. They take up less space and have higher quality. This can become a big issue if your computer is not capable of dealing with them, or if you wish to email your photos. The solution shown in the book is: Unlock your phone and select, SETTINGS> CAMERA> FORMATS> CHECK MOST COMPATABLE. This saves your photos to the JPEG format.

As you can see from the above tip, if you own a new iPhone product you owe it to yourself to pick up a copy. You and your phone will be glad you did!!! It truly is the MISSING MANUAL that should have been included with your phone!
