Publisher Description
NOW INCLUDES iPHONE 4S!
The iPhone 4 and 4S introduced many new features not seen in the iPhone 3G and 3GS, such as FaceTime video calling, multitasking, and even using your iPhone as a modem. This guide will introduce you to these new features and show you how to use them. This book gives task-based instructions without using any technical jargon.
Learning which buttons perform which functions is useless unless you know how it will help you in your everyday use of the iPhone. Therefore, this guide will teach you how to perform the most common tasks. Instead of presenting arbitrary instructions in lengthy paragraphs, this book gives unambiguous, simple step-by-step procedures. Additionally, detailed screenshots help you to confirm that you are on the right track.
This Survival Guide also goes above and beyond to explain Secret Tips and Tricks to help you accomplish your day-to-day tasks much faster. If you get stuck, just refer to the Troubleshooting section to figure out and solve the problem.

Just OK
Most of this book contains info you can pretty much figure out on your own but there are some helpful ideas. Author states that iphone4 cannot be charged when turned off--not true! I turn mine off in the evening before bed time and let it charge all night-- fully charged in the AM.
Survival Guide for iPhone 4
I have recently upgraded to iPhone 4 from iPhone 3GS. I have often used the Survival Guide for the iPhone 3GS and so I downloaded the new Survival Guide for the iPhone 4. I have also downloaded the official manual. Both guides are good. The Survival Guide is shorter than the official guide. In my mind it is easier to follow and I also think it is better organized, so I can find topics faster.
Answered All of My Troubleshooting Questions
When the iPhone 4 just came out, I learned that it had many issues, such as the infamous “death grip” which reduced the signal from four bars to nil in a matter of seconds. Ever since, I’ve been searching for a viable solution to problems like this. No manuals, not even the Apple manual, have been able to give me satisfactory answers. However, after perusing the troubleshooting section in the iPhone 4 Survival Guide, I found exactly what I was looking for. It definitely shows that this writer did extensive research to find out about current problems and document them accurately and completely. Looking forward to more updates in this manual in the future!
