Use Smartphone Features to Plan, Enjoy Perfect Summer Getaway

With summer right around the corner, families now have more free time with their children to take a vacation, relax at the pool or just explore their community. Because most summer activities are outdoors and require travel, it is helpful to know what features on your phone can help you plan all aspects of your next adventure and add to your enjoyment while you are on the road. According to a recent U.S. Cellular survey, 68 percent of smartphone owners used their smartphone to assist them while traveling. Knowing how to use your iPhone 6 or iPad Air 2 to book flights, download guidebooks, navigate a new city or stay entertained during a long car ride can greatly enhance and simplify life, which is why U.S. Cellular wants to show you the tips and tricks of using your device to the fullest. U.S. Cellular will offer a free Device Workshop, where current or potential smartphone users can ask questions and learn about any device. The workshop is open to everyone. You don?t have to be a U.S. Cellular customer to attend. ?We want the community to be sure they can get the most out of their devices while enjoying their summer,? said Erryn Andersen, U.S. Cellular?s director of sales in Nebraska and Iowa. ?No matter if you are enjoying a backyard BBQ or traveling across the country, your device paired with our national coverage will allow you to stay connected with friends and family this summer.? Please call 402-721-3707 to RSVP.
