Old Man Joins 21st Century, Any iPhone tips?

Well, I went out and joined the 21st century, bought an IPhone 6, the 6 plus was too big!

Should have done this years ago, just really liked my old metal case flip phone, all I ever did was take or make calls.

Did you know this thing counts the number of steps I take during the day, if I climb stairs it counts them and how many floors up I go? I don't need my Garmin GPS any more, it's on here! Kinda scary.

Some gal carries on a conversation with me too, doesn't understand much, but is well spoken and more entertaining than other ladies I know :)

I'll download the lost phone thing later, very cool.

It has a gizzmo to show angles, direction, a bubble level, grades in degrees......WTH? I was checking walls, door jams, floor, tables.....incredible!

OKAY, you IPhone types, what else can this thing do? 

My sister couldn't believe I texted her......

No, I'm not getting on Facebook. 

What uses are you finding for your phone in RE? :)

Bill you can set it up to automatically drop pictures to your computer. Its nice if you are out viewing a property to get home and have everything automatically on your computer for you. Kind of eliminates the need to use something like dropbox. 

I like the zillow app for quick references when I get a call on a property I can pull up the bed, bath, sqft etc. So I don't sound like an idiot. 

The flashlight on there is pretty decent. 

Email obviously. 

It's rumored they make an App for BP on Apple? I'm on android so I wouldn't know.
