Introducing iPhone An introduction to iPhone
An introduction
to iPhone
What makes the iPhone one of the best
smartphones available? It’s time to find out…
The original iPhone completely transformed the smartphone market.
Its beautiful screen, versatility and fantastic built-in apps struck a chord
with consumers and critics alike. It is built to run iOS, the operating
system also used in the equally impressive iPod touch. This book offers
you an in-depth guide to the wonderful iOS 15, which has seen a major
redesign in some areas – most notably the Home screen. With finger-
friendly icons and an environment that lets you get on with what you
want to do, ease of use is apparent in every part of the software.
When you also consider the long battery life, exceptional build
quality and near-perfect screen, you start to realise that this is a
smartphone built for anyone who wants to work and play anywhere.
Thousands of apps are available to extend the experience and help you
to get as much use as possible.

“The Maps app can help you

plan ahead and make sure you
get to meetings on time”
Get organised
The iPhone is packed full of useful functionality out of the box and
the tools to get yourself organised are all included. First up is the
Calendar app, which looks quite basic at first glance, but when you
dig below the surface you start to realise that the simplistic interface
is actually very useful when handling complex calendars (Fig 1).

agenda management invitations automatically.
The Reminders app lets you quickly add tasks that need to be
done at a certain time and alerts will sound when required. You can
even set Reminders to activate when you reach a particular location.
The Clock app will wake you up with an alarm every day and also
includes timers that can be used for time-dependent tasks (Fig 2).
We shouldn’t forget the Contacts app, which will help you to detail
every person you need and to add lots of information for each one.

has been realised and there are thousands of apps available to
let you undertake specific tasks. However, for the basics and the Fig 3 The Music app features Apple’s own

hours at a time before a charge is needed, perfect for long distance
flights. Plus, the sound quality is superb through headphones and
even the external speaker. The Music app is also on hand to play
all of your synced tunes, and the introduction of the Apple Music
streaming service means you can listen to whatever you want Fig 4 Music, ringtones, films, TV shows –

Introducing iPhone Set up your iPhone
Set up your iPhone

We show you how to activate your iPhone for the first time
and familiarise yourself with this wondrous device

16
Set up your iPhone Introducing iPhone
1 Turn your iPhone on To turn on your iPhone for the first time, press and hold
the On/Off button (the lozenge-shaped button on the top right of the phone)
for about three seconds. If your iPhone is new or has been recently reset you
should be greeted with the Apple logo, then after ten seconds or so, a plain
screen with ‘Hello’ written on it (Fig 1).
2 Resetting a pre-owned iPhone If, when you turn your iPhone on via the On/
Off button, you are taken straight to the Home Screen, then your iPhone is
already activated. If you wish to reset the iPhone so you can set it up as new, go
to the Settings app and scroll down to the Reset option and ‘Erase All Contents
And Settings’. You can then follow this tutorial to activate your iPhone as new.
3 Slide to unlock At the plain-looking iPhone screen (as shown in Fig 1), you
need to slide your finger to the right across the arrow at the bottom to continue. Fig 1, Turn on Fire up your iPhone
At this screen the iPhone is locked (as shown by the padlock icon in the top-
centre of the screen). You will need to perform the sliding motion every time
you wish to wake the iPhone up, so get used to it!
4 Waking up the iPhone If at any point during the activation process the
iPhone goes to ‘sleep’ (the screen goes blank), it’s usually because it was left
unattended. You can wake it up simply by pressing the Home button (the
circular one at the bottom-centre of the iPhone’s front) or tapping the On/Off
button. You’ll then have to unlock your iPhone as shown in Step 3.
5 Select your language Once you’ve unlocked your iPhone, you will see a short
list of common languages to choose from. If the language that you’d like is not
in this list, tap the downwards arrow. You will then be presented with a list of
different languages (Fig 2). The language you choose here will be the language
that your device is set to.
Fig 2, Select language Choose from the list
6 Select your country or region Now, similar to choosing your language, you
will have a short list of countries/regions to choose from (Fig 3). If your country
or region is not in the list, tap ‘Show More…’ and pick yours from there. This will
determine the apps that are available in the App Store and the various media
available from the iTunes app, as well as the correct currency.
Swipe your finger

upwards from the slider at
the bottom of the screen
to unlock your iPhone
Fig 3, Select your region This affects apps
17
7 Location Services The next part of the process is dedicated to your device’s
Location Services (Fig 4). This allows apps to gather and use data indicating your
approximate location, which is incredibly useful if you ever lose your device.
For a more detailed explanation on the service, tap ‘What is Location Services?’
towards the bottom of the screen. Tap ‘Done’ when you’ve finished.
8 Enable or Disable You must either enable or disable the Location Services
service by tapping on your chosen option – there is no option to skip the step.
If you are still unsure of the purpose of this feature and need more information
then don’t worry; you can activate it later from the Settings app in the Home
Screen. Tap ‘Next’ to continue the activation process.
9 Connect to a Wi-Fi network Your iPhone will be able to connect to the

Fig 4, Location Services This is used by apps internet wirelessly via a Wi-Fi connection. If you have a Wi-Fi network set up
in your house it will appear in the menu (Fig 5). Tap on it and you will need to
enter your password using the on-screen keyboard. When you’ve entered the
password, tap the Join button either on the keyboard or the dialog box.
10 If you don’t have a Wi-Fi connection… If you can’t access a Wi-Fi

connection, but you do have a computer with iTunes installed, you can
continue the activation by connecting your iPhone to the computer via the
supplied USB cable and then choosing the ‘Connect to iTunes’ option beneath
any other wireless networks the iPhone could pick up.
11 Set Up iPhone The next screen you’ll see will present you with three options:
Set Up as New iPhone, Restore from iCloud Backup, and Restore from iTunes
Backup (Fig 6). You will most likely want to choose the first option, which
requires no more than a tap of the ‘Next’ button in the top right to continue
with the activation (Step 14). However, we will also look at the other choices…
Fig 5, Connect to Wi-Fi Scan for networks
12 Restore from iCloud Backup You should choose this option if you have an
iCloud account that has a backup attached to it. Once you’ve chosen and
tapped ‘Next’ you’ll have to enter the Apple ID of the account that has the
backup, and its password. You’ll then be able to restore the iPhone from the
backup. New iPhone owners won’t use this.
You can also activate

your iPhone via iTunes
by connecting it to a
computer via USB
Fig 6, Set Up iPhone Choose an option
18
13 Restore from iTunes Backup If you choose this option you can restore your
iPhone from a backup kept on your desktop computer in iTunes. Connect your
iPhone to your computer via the USB cable and select the backup you want to
use from iTunes. Note that you can also set the iPhone as a new one (as if you
tapped the ‘Set Up as New iPhone’ button in Step 11) from here.
14 Apple ID The Apple ID, which you create in the next step of the activation, is
one of the most important things you will do during the process. A tap of the
‘What is an Apple ID?’ link at the bottom of the screen tells you why ownership
of an Apple ID is essential. You will need one to download apps from the App
Store, buy songs from iTunes and purchase books from iBooks.
15 Create an Apple ID If you have yet to create an Apple ID, it’s incredibly simple
to do so, and you can do it from the comfort of your iPhone. Tap the Create a Fig 7, Apple ID You need one of these
Free Apple ID button (Fig 7) and you’ll have to enter your birthday (which will
be used in case you forget your password), your name, and the email address
that will eventually become your Apple ID.
16 Sign In with an Apple ID Due to the exceptional success of Apple programs

like iTunes, you may already have an Apple ID without so much as touching an
iPhone, Mac, iPhone, or iPod. If you have one, tap Sign In with an Apple ID and
enter your ID and password. If you know you own one but can’t remember the
details, tap ‘Forgot Apple ID or Password?’ and you’ll be able to retrieve it.
17 Read the Terms & Conditions After signing in with either your brand new or
existing Apple ID, you will be presented with a screen of Terms and Conditions
that relate to all aspects of your iPhone and the services that you will be using,
such as iCloud, Game Center and so on. If you wish to read them on a larger
screen, you can email them to yourself by tapping the ‘Send by Email’ button.
Fig 8, T&Cs You must agree to these
18 All about iCloud After 30 seconds or so, you will have the opportunity to
set up one of the most revolutionary services Apple has created: iCloud – a
fantastic cloud service that enable you to wirelessly keep your contacts, emails
and calendars across multiple devices without you having to do anything. Tap
‘What is iCloud’ (Fig 9) to find out more about how it can benefit your life.
An Apple ID enables you

to buy music, movies and
books straight from the
comfort of your iPhone
Fig 9, iCloud There to make your life easier
19
19 Enable or disable iCloud Tap the top option to enable iCloud – it’s free
(although there is the option to pay to increase your storage space, which you
can do in Settings). If you choose not to enable it, you will miss the opportunity
to set up Find My iPhone in the next step of the process. You can, however,
enable it from the Settings app once you’ve completed the activation.
20 The Find My iPhone service If you misplace your iPhone then Find My
iPhone will help you locate it on a map, play a sound or display a message.
You can activate this service to sync the location of your device with your
iCloud (Fig 10). If you lose your iPhone then you can access the service from an
iPhone, iPod touch or computer by visiting www.icloud.com.
21 Diagnostics and Usage The next screen deals with diagnostics and usage
Fig 10, Find My iPhone Locate a lost device data. Basically, Apple likes to keep track of how its products are performing,
so this screen allows you to send diagnostic data straight to Apple. If you wish
to keep your information private, opt for ‘Don’t Send’. You can change your
answer after activation from the Settings app, in the ‘About’ tab.
22 Your last chance to restart The diagnostics screen offers you one last chance
to restart the activation process if you’re not happy with the choices you’ve
made. To restart the process, tap the Home button (the circular button at the
bottom of the iPhone) once, and a menu should pop up. You will then find the
option to restart the activation, where you can make the choices you want.
23 Set up is complete! Congratulations! You have now worked your way

through the entire set-up process. A screen will confirm that the process is
complete (Fig 11), so what are you waiting for? Tap on the ‘Start Using iPhone’
button to start using your iPhone! If you press the Home button now to restart
Fig 11, Complete! Start using your iPhone the procedure, you will just be taken to the Home Screen instead.
24 Start using your iPhone You’ll be presented with your Home screen (Fig

experiment with the gestures needed to operate your new device. Tap the
Settings app and you’ll have access to countless options, including ones that
can reset the choices you made during the activation process.

How to use your iPhone

Learn how you can navigate and control your smartphone
Using an iPhone is all about touch. There are very few hardware buttons included – aside from the
power/Siri button on the right and the volume and mute keys on the left – so it’s amazing that the
iPhone is capable of doing so much. As well as the basic tasks that you would expect it do – turn on
and off, go on standby, etc – you can use its incredible Multi-Touch screen and 3D Touch features in
combination with the buttons to multitask, arrange and manage your apps to your heart’s content.
Here are some of the basic actions you need to know about.

Hand gestures

Fig 1, Tap You will need to tap to launch apps
Learn the many ways you can control your iPhone
using the power of your fingers
1 Tap Tapping is the main way you will navigate your iPhone. To open an app, you
must tap it from your Home screen, for example (Fig 1). You’ll mainly be tapping
the iPhone to select things like web links in Safari, songs in Music, or pictures
in Photos. You’ll also need to tap to type on the on-screen keyboard when it
appears in numerous apps such as Mail, Messages, Reminders and Notes.
Fig 2, Scroll Drag your finger to navigate around 2 Scroll & Swipe Scrolling is when you drag your finger up or down the iPhone’s
screen (Fig 2), swiping is horizontal. Scrolling allows for you to run through
information on the same screen, whilst swiping takes you from one screen to
the next, or allows you to go to the next or previous page of a website or book.
They are probably the most used of all the gestures!
3 Reachability swipe Swiping down from the bottom of the iPhone’s screen will
lower the top of screen, making it easier to access anything out of reach with
just one hand. If you have an iPhone with a finger print sensor, then you will be
able to swipe your finger (or thumb) down over the home button to achieve
Fig 3, Swipe down Reach the top of the screen the same effect. (Fig 3).
4 Drag Dragging is when you tap and hold your finger on the iPhone, then drag
it anywhere else on the screen. It’s essential when moving apps around on
the Home screen. Tap and hold on an app until the Edit Home Screen option
appears. Tap this and you can then drag it to its rightful place on the Home
screen. It’s rarely used in other native apps, but common in third-party games.
Fig 4, 3D Touch Press and hold your finger

5 3D Touch Also referred to as ‘Force Touch’, this underrated feature measures
how much force you are applying to the iPhone’s touch-sensitive surface and
acts accordingly (Fig 4). One example of this feature in effect comes in the
form of Peek and Pop, where you and lightly tap on an app to quickly preview
something, like an email, a website, or a photo.
6 Pinch and spread Widely used among built-in and third-party apps to zoom
out, the pinch is a useful gesture. To perform it, place two fingers on the screen
and bring them together (Fig 5). The spread is the opposite gesture: rather than
bringing two digits together, you spread them apart (annotated image). The

People don’t always phone at convenient times. In fact, there
are times when the only option – for the present – is to dismiss a
call and phone them back later. However, how many times have
you forgotten to make that important call because you’ve had so
many other things happening around you? Well, fortunately for
us, the Phone app works together with Reminders to make up
for our shortcomings by reminding us to make that call. So when
your iPhone starts to ring and you really can’t take that call, just

reminder options: ‘Remind Me Later’ and ‘In 1 hour’ (Fig 3). These
