Our Cadex C-7000 battery analyzer 

Of all the components in your cell phone or tablet, the battery is the one most vulnerable to aging. You’ve probably noticed it happening: the older your phone gets, the more often you need to charge it. That’s because your battery has a limited number of charge cycles. As your phone ages, and as it gets charged and discharged over and over again, the chemical components inside start to break down and its capacity starts to diminish. Most cell phone batteries can last a couple years before the diminished capacity starts to become a real problem, depending on a variety of factors. Software updates can also impact battery life. As Apple and Google update their mobile operating systems, added features can put increased strain on the hardware of older phones, including the battery. You may recall that Apple stirred controversy last year by slowing down older phones in order to improve users’ battery performance.

Unfortunately, problems with your battery aren’t always easy to spot when you’re using your phone normally. The reduction in capacity that happens as a battery ages tends to be gradual, so sometimes it’s hard to know whether you really need a new battery for your phone. That’s where we come in. At Phone Medics Plus, we’re equipped with a Cadex C7000, which is a full-featured standalone battery analyzer that is able to perform a wide variety of functions, including evaluating your battery’s health. With it, we can give you a definitive answer about the current condition of your battery. With concrete data in hand, you’ll be better able to make the right decision on whether to replace your phone’s battery.

So if you’re concerned about your phone’s performance, bring it into the Phone Medics Plus repair facility at 91 E. Merritt Island Causeway in Merritt Island today. Our experienced repair technicians will perform a free battery analysis, and if you need a new battery they’ll get it installed for you quickly and affordably.

The Best Cloud Backup Services

Anybody who’s ever suffered a data loss knows the importance of keeping your stuff backed up. In a previous post, we gave you a basic guide to keeping your computer backed up using a combination of on-site backups and cloud-based backups. Today we’re going to go a little more in-depth on the cloud backup piece of the equation. There are a lot of cloud backup services out there, so today we’re going to take a look at some of the best options. What To Look For The two main factors to consider when you’re looking for an online backup service are storage capacity and price. The first thing to do is figure out how much data you want to backup and decide how much (if any) more space you might need in the future. Once you’ve done that, you can start looking at prices for the amount of storage you need. Of course, there are other factors to consider. You want to make sure that the service offers a software client for your operating system, and look into how they plan to get your data ...

Parental Controls Part 1: iPhone

A parent’s most important (and sometimes hardest) job is keeping their kids safe. That’s as true when they use technology as it is when they do anything else. With technology, though, the process can sometimes be tricky and confusing. It can be hard to know the best way to protect our kids from unsavory content on the internet, and our wallets from accidental in-app purchases. Fortunately, Apple offers some great options for managing your kids’ activity on their iPhone. In today’s post, we’ll walk you through some of those. Restrictions Your first line of defense is the Restrictions section of your iPhone’s settings app. You can find it by opening up Settings, tapping General, and then tapping Restrictions. When you turn restrictions on, you’ll be asked to set up a passcode. Of course, you’ll want to pick something that’s different from the passcode that unlocks the phone, and something the child who will be using the phone doesn’t know and won’t be likely to guess. Once you get i...

Managing iPhone Data Usage

In the early days of the iPhone, users enjoyed service plans for AT&T (and later Verizon) that promised unlimited data. Unfortunately, it was too good to last. After a few years, the carriers decided that giving smartphone users unlimited data was either technologically problematic or insufficiently profitable (there’s some debate on this point), and they began to be replaced by limited data plans. Once that happened, we had to start worrying about how much data we used, because the last thing anybody wants is to burn through their monthly allotment and start being charged by the gigabyte. With that in mind, we’re going to spend the next couple posts talking about some of the ways you can manage your cell phone’s data usage, so that you still have some data left at the end of your month. In today’s post, we’re going to talk about how to handle data usage on your iPhone. Next time we’ll cover Android. Turn Off Wi-Fi Assist When you go looking for ways to reduce your data usage,...
