According to Apple, rice will not dry out a water-soaked iPhone, contrary to what some websites and technical videos say.
Despite reliable sources claiming it works, the tech company specifically advises against it, warning that small particles of rice can “damage” your phone. doing.
Instead, a new Apple support document says you should effectively wait and drip dry in a “dry area with airflow.”
Many people close apps “to save their phone’s battery,” but this is also a very widespread myth and is taken as gospel.
Here are the five most common misconceptions about iPhone hacking.
If you put a wet iPhone in rice, it will dry out more easily.
One of the most common misconceptions is that eating rice will dry out a wet iPhone. Apple has warned against this, saying particles can penetrate and damage your phone.
It’s unclear when the myth advising consumers to put their iPhones in rice when they get wet took off, but Apple has made it clear that this could actually do more harm than good.
Apple warns against using rice as a first aid solution, as small particles of rice can get into your iPhone and cause further damage.
Although current iPhones are more water resistant than previous iPhones, they’re still not impervious to water, which is why Apple issued the liquid detection warning.
This alert notifies users that their phone cannot be charged because liquid has been detected and to wait until it dries and try again.
Turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to save battery
If you’re not using Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, it won’t stay active and drain your phone’s battery.
A common misconception is that turning off Bluetooth and Wi-Fi will conserve battery life, but when the features are on and not in use, they don’t consume any extra battery life.
Instead, a better solution is to turn on airplane mode. Turning on airplane mode disables apps that drain your battery, which is especially useful when you’re traveling or in areas with poor reception.
This feature prevents your phone from continually searching for a signal, which quickly drains your iPhone of energy.
Private browsing mode hides your IP address and location
Using Private Mode on your iPhone doesn’t hide your IP address, but Apple’s iCloud Private Relay app prevents third parties from tracking your browsing habits and location.
If you’ve ever used an incognito or private browser thinking it would hide your location or IP address from others, we’re here to tell you that it doesn’t work.
Incognito mode may hide your browsing history, but the websites you visit still have access to your personal information, so even if you accept the use of cookies, your data will be saved on your phone and the websites you visit will still have access to your personal information. Get information about your browsing habits.
Instead, Apple suggests signing up for its iCloud+ service, which gives you access to the iCloud Private Relay app.
This app protects your IP address and browsing activity by encrypting the traffic on your device and sending it through a separate internet relay.
This prevents websites from seeing your IP address and location, and from network providers collecting your browsing activity. According to Apple’s support site, neither of us knows who you are or which of his websites you visit.
Closing apps can save your iPhone battery
Closing apps on your iPhone uses more battery life than leaving them open.
You can finally abandon the never-ending task of swiping up to delete “open” apps on your iPhone. This is also a lie.
Closing the app does nothing to save battery since the app is not actually running. Closing apps also uses more of your iPhone’s battery life than if you left them alone.
This is because when the app is “open” it’s basically in a frozen state, but if you close it and then restart it when you want to open it again, it’s faster than if you restored it from the background. This is because it consumes a lot of energy.
Charging your iPhone overnight can damage your battery
The latest technology prevents overcharging, so charging your phone overnight won’t harm your battery
A common misconception is that charging your iPhone overnight can harm your battery by using more power than necessary.
In fact, modern smartphones automatically detect when they’re at 100% and don’t draw any more current than necessary to fully charge.
“All rechargeable batteries are consumables and have a finite lifespan. Eventually they will lose capacity and performance and need to be replaced,” Apple said on its site.
“As your battery ages, your iPhone’s performance may change.
Therefore, if your battery is low, it has nothing to do with how often you charge it or how long you charge it.
