旧iPhone最巧妙的10种用途

旧iPhone最巧妙的10种用途

Reuters 2014年09月26日
当然,你可以把你的旧iPhone卖了、送人了或者当废品处理了,但这里我们有10个更好的处置办法。

    菜谱

    如果你有一部厨房iPhone,那么就没有必要翻阅烹饪书或者寻找其他设备。下载一款菜谱软件,比如《我的烹饪书》(My Recipe Book,99美分)或者《大烤箱》(Big Oven,免费),然后只需把手机留在厨房柜台上。它几乎不占用任何空间,而且可容纳的菜谱远远多于任何一本烹饪书。

    额外的存储空间

    需要有个地方来存储旧照片和音乐或者其它文件吗?那就利用一款像《USB和Wi-Fi闪存驱动器》(USB & Wi-Fi Flash Drive)这样的免费应用程序,把你的旧手机变成一台存储驱动器吧。

    语音记录器

    如果你有一部退役的iPhone,为什么还要购买数码录音机呢?使用几款免费应用程序中的任何一款,比如Voice Recorder和Voice Record Pro,你就会拥有一部专用的记录录音机或一部设备,来录下采访和演讲。

    文档扫描仪

    Genius Scan和Doc Scan这两款应用程序可以把iPhone变成一部方便的便携式扫描仪,你可以用于工作、学校报告、家谱研究或者记录菜谱。而且这两款应用程序不会花你一分钱。你可以购买一个支架,让iPhone变成一台固定扫描仪,支架最便宜的价格为20美元。

    婴儿监视器

    当然,你可以花费100多美元购买一部婴儿监视器,或者你可以把旧iPhone设置成观看宝宝实时监视视频,并且监听宝宝动静,甚至和宝宝说话。《云婴儿监视器》(Cloud Baby Monitor,3.99 美元) 也可以让家长在无线网络或WiFi上收到视频信号,这样他们就不必局限在距离监视器几英尺的范围之内了。

    车辆追踪器

    无论你是要在自己的汽车被盗之后需要找回汽车,还是记录下自己曾经开车经过哪里,或者是暗中监视你十几岁小孩的驾车情况,你手机的内置GPS(全球定位系统)均可被用来当作一部追踪装置。像InstaMapper(2.99美元)这样的一款应用程序让你能够实时监视车辆,并且把情况录制下来。当然,你可能最终采取简单的办法,那就是让小孩把你的旧iPhone当作iPod Touch。史密斯说,记住,即便没有移动服务,旧iPhone仍然可以拨打911。

    此外,你还可以把旧手机当作新款手机遭受不可弥补的损害时的备用手机。即便如此,如果把手机电池放在抽屉里不使用,那么过了一段时间电池里的电量会耗尽到再也无法使用的地步。(财富中文网)

    Cookbook

    No need to go through recipe books or hunt around for other devices when you have a kitchen iPhone. Download a cookbook app, such as My Recipe Book (99 cents) or Big Oven (free), and just leave the device on the kitchen counter. It takes up almost no space and will hold far more recipes than any book.

    Extra Storage

    Need a place to store old photos and music or other files? Turn your old phone into a storage drive using a free app like USB & Wi-Fi Flash Drive.

    Voice Recorder

    Why buy a digital voice recorder when you have a retired iPhone? Using any of several free apps, including Voice Recorder and Voice Record Pro, you will have a designated memo recorder or a device to record interviews and speeches.

    Document Scanner

    Genius Scan and Doc Scan are two apps that will turn an iPhone into a handy portable scanner that you can use for work, school reports, genealogical research, or recording receipts. And they will not cost you a penny. For $20 and up, you can buy a stand that makes your iPhone into a stationary scanner.

    Baby Monitor

    Sure, you can spend $100 or more on a baby monitor, or you can just set your old iPhone up to watch streaming video of your baby as well as hear and even talk to him or her. Cloud Baby Monitor ($3.99) also allows parents to receive the signal on a wireless network or on WiFi so they do not have to be within a certain number of feet of the monitor.

    Vehicle Tracker

    Whether you need to find your car if it is stolen, record where you have traveled, or spy on your teenage driver, the built-in GPS in your phone can be used as a tracking device. An app like InstaMapper ($2.99) lets you watch the vehicle in real-time and have a record of it. Of course, you may end up taking the simple path of letting a child use your old iPhone as an iPod Touch. Keep in mind that the phone can still dial 911, even if it does not have cellular service, Smith said.

    You can also use your old phone as a back-up in case your new model suffers irreparable harm. That said, the battery of a phone that sits in a drawer unused could drain to the point where it is no longer viable.
