Privacy Tips for your Cell Phone

You probably take your cell phone everywhere with you and keep it on your nightstand when you are sleeping, and you may also keep lots of your own personal information in the memory such as your friends and co workers contact details, and any notes, reminders and appointments.  Therefore it is important that you guarantee the privacy of your cell phone, to avoid any unwanted calls or phone hijacking.

Restrict Your Number

Only give your phone number to people who really need it, and never publish it online.  You can also set up private caller ID so that the person who you are calling cannot see your number by going into the call settings and selecting ‘private’ option, or on most phones you can simply dialling 1831 before you input the number you are calling (this works when you are ringing either another cell phone or a landline number).

Allow Lists

Your phone will have an option to block calls from people you do not know, and you can do this by going into your ‘allow lists’ and inputting only your friends and family’s numbers.  If you don’t want to restrict your phone quite so much you could use the ‘block’ function instead, which will only block those particular numbers you do not want to call you.

Camera Phone Techniques

Cell phone cameras are very sophisticated these days and you can take some excellent photographs with them, making your phone a very versatile device.  Here are just a few tips to help you take the best photos you can with your cell phone:

  • Light – camera phones need all the help they can get with lighting, so make sure the subject is in a well lit, but balanced setting.  Avoid taking photos with the sun or an artificial light directly in the frame as this can overpower the shot and distort the colors. Try and get a phone with a built in flash, as this will improve the light quality of your photographs a lot.
  • Close up – camera phones tend to have a low resolution and so do not deal well with big, vague images, so make sure you get up close to the subject, and pick the camera with the best resolution you can if you are going to take a lot of photos.
  • Stay Still – camera phones to not tend to have in built anti-shake functions, so make sure you keep very still when taking your shot to avoid to much blurring, and hold still long enough to allow for any ‘shutter lag’.
