00:00Now, this might shock iPhone fans.
00:02Oh no! Calm down, it'll be okay.
00:05Go to Settings, Privacy, Location Services, scroll down, tap System Services, and choose Significant Locations.
00:13Your phone knows not only where you live, but also where you work, where your favorite supermarket is, and other
00:20places you visit frequently.
00:22If it makes you feel uncomfortable, just turn it off.
00:27Multitasking doesn't exhaust your battery as long as the apps in the background aren't actually working, like location tracking or
00:33any music player.
00:35So, if you don't want to close the apps on standby for some reason, it's okay to leave them be.
00:41Cached data consumes a huge amount of precious space, and buying extra cloud space is not the only way to
00:47retrieve some.
00:48Whenever you see that you're out of memory and you've got literally nothing to delete, check all your messengers.
00:54Even if you deleted the photo from the camera roll, it's still stored in a cache.
00:59Go to your messenger settings and delete all the cached files.
01:03There's a sure sign your charger has gone bad.
01:06When you notice it takes more time to charge your phone, like earlier, you could go full charged within an
01:12hour and a half, and it now takes more than three hours to do so.
01:15You have to replace the charger.
01:17If you see your phone cable has turned green, throw it away and replace it with a new one.
01:23The wire inside the cable is made of copper, and this metal turns green when it corrodes, just like some
01:29statues out there made of it.
01:30If the wire has rusted, the charger is not safe to use anymore because it loses its conductive properties and
01:37may even cause an electrical fire.
01:39So whenever you see a greenish tint on your usually white cable, toss it without hesitation.
01:46This one doesn't happen that often, but if you live in a moist or dusty environment, one day you can
01:52see rust on the connecting ends.
01:54Rust often can't be cleaned, and even if you manage to get rid of it, it might break the delicate
01:59pins on the charging cable.
02:01So it's probably best to replace your charger right away.
02:05Now, charging ports get loose over time, and once it happens, you start to hold your phone at a particular
02:11angle to charge it.
02:13Take action as soon as you notice it.
02:15Either ask a specialist to fix it or replace the charger.
02:18Now, if your phone won't charge, it's not necessarily the charger's fault.
02:23The problem can be about the adapter.
02:25The USB ports and adapters can get loose over time.
02:29So if you're sure the cable is fine, check the adapter.
02:33Also, sometimes the problem may be about the battery.
02:37It may be so that the adapters seem to be fine, same with the cables, but the phone just won't
02:42charge.
02:43Check the cable jack.
02:45Sometimes it catches a lot of lint, which results in charging problems.
02:49You can easily clean it with a toothpick.
02:52Don't use a needle or any other metal object, though, as you may damage the port.
02:56Your phone may malfunction not only because of battery problems.
03:00Unnecessary data can make it work slower.
03:03So, reboot your phone once a week.
03:06Don't overload your device.
03:07Too many pics or documents don't make it work any faster, either.
03:12If you store all the important information in a cloud, you'll also have access there from any device.
03:18A simple explanation as to why 1% might last a long time is that the phone has underestimated the
03:25current battery capacity.
03:27Then, when it gets down to what it thinks should be almost empty, displaying 1%, it finds that the battery
03:34has more capacity left than it estimated.
03:36There's also a bit of psychology.
03:38When you see that your phone's about to turn off, it kind of encourages you to plug it in ASAP.
03:45By the way, modem batteries can't be fully charged or drained.
03:49The last 20% of a battery takes longer to charge than the rest because lithium-ion batteries have a
03:56bit of a complex charging profile.
03:58When the battery is low, the charger supplies a fixed current, generally the peak current that the charger or battery
04:05combination can handle.
04:06As the voltage increases, the charger switches over to a constant voltage profile, where the voltage is supplied at 4
04:13.3 volts or so, and the current is entirely based on what the battery will take.
04:18Sleeping with your phone under your pillow is not a very healthy idea.
04:23Cell phones, tablets, and other forms of handheld technology release electromagnetic waves caused by x-rays, just as microwaves do,
04:31which may lead to serious health issues.
04:33Even though an adult person's skull is quite thick, like mine, and protects the brain well, it's best to be
04:41on the safe side and put your phone on the bedside table.
04:45If you accidentally crack the screen carrying your phone, replace it with a new one as soon as possible.
04:51Yeah, it might not seem a problem since the touchscreen still works, but all the grease and dust will get
04:57through the cracks.
04:58It can eventually damage the screen, so hurry up!
05:02Facial skin is sensitive, and your phone is almost 7 times dirtier than a toilet seat.
05:08Talking on the phone seems like rubbing a toilet seat against your cheek, ooh.
05:12So don't press your phone against your face.
05:15You don't want germs, do you?
05:17And maybe wash your hands more often.
05:20Blue light, brightness, and even font size can be the reason why you get a poor night's sleep,
05:26especially if you love to scroll the feed until you fall asleep.
05:29Go to Settings and turn on the blue light filter.
05:33It's called Night Shift for iPhones, and there are blue light filter apps for Androids, too.
05:38Also, adjust the brightness and font size.
05:41Be careful using the phone on the beach.
05:43Don't leave it in the sun on your beach towel.
05:46Though it doesn't need sunscreen, and there's no way it can have sunburn,
05:49it can still be badly damaged by scorching rays.
05:53Lithium batteries are like humans.
05:55Their operating temperature range is 59 to 95 degrees Fahrenheit.
06:00Now, don't charge your smartphone if it's over 95 degrees because it may cause damage to the battery.
06:06Also, it's bad to charge it on a cover.
06:09We know cell phones don't enjoy the heat.
06:11The heat gets trapped inside, so it can damage your battery.
06:15And never try to cool it off in a freezer, as lithium batteries can't stand cold either.
06:21Boy, they're picky.
06:22Still, remember that some heat while charging your phone is completely fine.
06:27The charger uses a transformer to convert the AC line voltage from a wall outlet
06:31to the DC voltage required to charge the battery.
06:35No process would be 100% efficient, so some amount of electricity is released as heat.
06:41Excessive heat, and especially discoloration, are bad signs that the charger's circuitry is beginning to fail.
06:48This may possibly result in an electric shock when you unplug the device.
06:53Bzzzt! Ow!
06:54Pockets are one of the worst places to keep your phone.
06:58You can lose it, accidentally sit on it and crack the screen, or, what's way worse, get radiated.
07:04The phone has a full range of signals that are not good for our health.
07:08Mobile data, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and NFC were added to the list.
07:13By the way, don't use public Wi-Fi if you don't want to leak your personal data.
07:17Some people like to jailbreak their phones to access more app stores, not only the official ones.
07:23Well, before doing it, remember that this procedure literally eliminates the safeguard the manufacturer installed on your phone.
07:31Plus, unofficial app stores and apps can lead to data leaking.
07:35If leaking occurs, your phone may need some absorbent undergarments.
07:40Ah, just kidding.
07:42One thing you may probably never leave home without is a power bank.
07:46They are much safer than any public hub.
07:49Make sure the amperage is correct.
07:52Most modern smartphones charge at 2.1 amps.
07:55And most power banks have a range of 2.1 to 2.4 amps, which is totally okay.
08:01Check if the phone's not too hot while charging.
08:04The hotter the battery, the less effective the charging.
08:08There's nothing better than a nice piece of buttered toast for breakfast, if we're not counting hot fudge sundaes.
08:14But if you find it harder to spread out cold butter over your toast, here's an idea.
08:20Use a cheese grater.
08:21Figure out the amount you need and grate the product.
08:24The process will also soften the butter, making it easier to spread, and you won't have to melt a too
08:30large amount of it in the process.
08:32But still, that hot fudge.
08:34Dried pasta comes in all sorts of different shapes and sizes for a reason.
08:39That's because each type of pasta goes best with a particular sauce.
08:44Pasta shells, for example, are perfect with denser and chunkier sauces.
08:48Why?
08:49Because the sauce gets inside the shells, making it easier to serve and eat the dish.
08:54The ribbed outer surface also helps with covering the shells in the sauce.
09:00If you ever end up burning your cookies,
09:03Ow!
09:03You can save them with your trusty grater, too.
09:06Just grate off the blackened parts after carefully taking the cookies from the baking tray.
09:10But be careful and wait until the cookies have cooled down.
09:14Also, if you ruin their shape a bit, you can always dip them in some melted chocolate.
09:20Ooh!
09:20After the chocolate cools down, you'll have perfectly shaped cookies.
09:24Although, after it gets past your lips and beyond, does the shape of the cookie actually matter?
09:30Hmm, just saying.
09:33If you like adding a lot of ingredients to your sandwiches,
09:36but don't really appreciate it when the bread gets soggy,
09:39there is a way to reduce the amount of moisture.
09:42Pick your sliced tomatoes or cucumbers and place them between two paper towels for up to five minutes.
09:48After that, you can use them.
09:50Also, make sure to spread butter, cheese, or sauces, like mayo or ketchup, onto the bread first.
09:56This will help you seal the bread and keep moisture at bay.
10:01Some people think that the little white string that you find near an egg yolk
10:05needs to be removed before you cook the egg.
10:08Well, I'm here to tell you that these strands are called calaza,
10:12and you don't actually need to get rid of them.
10:14They help keep the yolk in place at the egg's center.
10:16A calaza is not going to mess up the consistency or the taste of your food,
10:21so removing it is completely up to you.
10:25Ever notice that most juice boxes come with two flaps, one on each side?
10:30Those are actually handles.
10:32Manufacturers design the boxes this way to make it easier for us to hold them.
10:36This way, we don't end up squeezing the box, making the juice spill out.
10:42Now, you don't need to be a baking pro to know that you can use both white
10:46and brown sugar in your recipes.
10:48But have you ever wondered what the difference between these two is?
10:52It turns out that the only thing that sets them apart is that, during production,
10:57a small amount of molasses is added to the brown sugar.
11:01Molasses is basically a sort of syrup you get when processing sugar cane.
11:06It's usually removed during the refining process.
11:09That's how white sugar is produced.
11:11But if some amount of molasses remains in the final product,
11:15we end up with brown sugar, with its specific taste and darker hue.
11:19It's a good thing.
11:22There are a lot of things you can put in your dishwasher, apart from your dishes.
11:26For example, you can clean such things as your silicone oven mitts
11:31or the knobs of some kitchen appliances, like your oven or stove.
11:34Some kitchen sponges and reusable towels may be safe to clean in the dishwasher as well.
11:41Speaking of kitchen cleaning products, there are a lot of things you can do with dish soap,
11:46like de-griming your patio furniture.
11:48Just add a bit of dish detergent to some warm water
11:51and use the solution to wipe down your outdoor furniture with a piece of cloth.
11:56Finally, rinse it clean using your garden hose.
11:59You can also use dish soap to get rid of greasy stains on your clothes.
12:04Be it pasta sauce or salad dressings.
12:06Hey, sometimes we miss our mouths.
12:09So, just apply a little dish detergent to the stain and then rinse with water.
12:13Use non-colored soap for lighter clothes.
12:16For more difficult stains, let the dish soap sink in for a bit,
12:20then throw the piece of clothing in the washer as usual.
12:23And think about maybe getting a bib.
12:25If none of the methods have helped you organize your closet,
12:29and you're still overwhelmed with large piles of clothes,
12:32there's a simple way that might be effective.
12:35It's called the one-in-one-out rule.
12:38That means for every new piece of clothing you buy,
12:41you need to get rid of one you already have.
12:44That means you'll always be decluttering your space.
12:47To make it easier to find something in your closet, good luck!
12:51Keep your most used items at eye level.
12:53This way, they'll be easier to find and pull out when you're in a hurry.
12:58Those items that you tend to use less often, like your evening clothes, for example,
13:02can stay on the shelves above or below your eye level.
13:06You can make good use of old spice tins.
13:09If you glue some powerful magnets to the inside of the tins,
13:12they can double as magnetic shelves.
13:15You can use them for all sorts of everyday items,
13:18like kitchen pliers, ice cream scoops, or even cutlery.
13:22You can also place them on any metallic surface, like your refrigerator door.
13:27They'll blend in nicely with your kitchen magnets.
13:30Hidden in your laundry room, there's a great tool for picking up head hair.
13:35It sometimes works better than lint rollers.
13:37Take a dryer sheet and, using some elbow grease,
13:41you'll get rid of that dog or cat hair in no time.
13:44It works on all sorts of surfaces,
13:46but it's especially effective for upholstered furniture.
13:50Now, if you don't like it when a door starts squeaking whenever you enter a room,
13:55get a bar of soap and rub it straight on the hinges.
13:58This will only help for a while, though.
14:00But it'll do the trick until you manage to get to a hardware store.
14:04And, you know, buy some oil.
14:07Have you ever noticed that, in some elevators,
14:09there's a star next to the number of a specific floor?
14:12No, it's not to indicate where my office is.
14:16It's there to point out where the nearest exit is.
14:19And it's not always on the first floor.
14:21It's most likely located on the floor closest to the street.
14:26Have you ever wondered why stop signs are red?
14:29Well, back in the day, they didn't actually have any particular color at all.
14:33Before the 1920s, they didn't even have a standardized shape.
14:37In 1922, though, someone came up with the octagon.
14:42But initially, it was painted yellow.
14:44All because the red coloring tended to fade out too quickly because of sun exposure.
14:49So, yellow turned out to be the best option.
14:52It took another 30 years for fade-resistant enamel paint to be invented.
14:57We ended up changing the color of the stop sign back to red.
15:00After all, it's still the best color if you want something to be easily noticeable.
15:06Do you know there's a type of rose that can grow taller than people?
15:10According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the tallest rose bush ever found grew in Vienna, Austria.
15:17It was a staggering 28 and a half feet tall.
15:20Yes, it arose to a great height.
15:23In the same way we all have unique patterns on our fingerprints, no two tigers have the same set of
15:29stripes.
15:30It makes it easier for people working with this feline species to distinguish one tiger from another.
15:36I'll bet you didn't know, the White House has its own flower shop hidden in the basement of the building.
15:42It's supposed to provide flower arrangements for all sorts of events that take place there.
15:47It's probably no surprise that pizza has become an American staple dish despite its Italian origin.
15:54People in the U.S. love it so much that they buy 350 slices of pizza every second in the
16:01States.
16:02Man, I am not getting my fair share.
16:05To manage the huge demand for this delicious dish, around 17% of all restaurants in the U.S. are
16:11pizzerias.
16:13Finally, there's a way to make lemon juice without the seeds getting into your beverage.
16:18Try cutting the fruit in two and squeezing it with a pair of kitchen tongs.
16:23The pointed end of the lemon should be facing down.
16:26The juice will flow down, but the seeds will remain inside the lemon.
16:30Ooh, lemonade. It goes well with pizza.
16:35Would you prefer to own a private island or an underwater hotel?
16:39A tough choice, isn't it?
16:41Yep, you got it right.

32:59The contents of the second box though aren't as exciting, just a few outdated lottery tickets.
33:05Well, maybe you'll get lucky next time.
33:07See you then.
