As iPhone celebrated its 10th year anniversary this week, here’s a look into how the iPhone transformed everyday life.

· Calendar

o Your traditional calendar hung on the wall is no longer used as long as there’s a calendar in your hand wherever you go and can remind you of important dates and appointments

· Alarm clocks

o The snooze button could be one of the best inventions of modern day whereas in the past, if you miss your alarm you will sleep in!

· Flashlight

o Our first instinct when the lights go out or during a power cut is to turn on our life-saving flashlight. In the iPhone 7, you can control the brightness

· Camera

o A high resolution camera in your smartphone saved you from having to carry a camera around. What’s more is the editing features and filters you can instantly enhance your photo memories

· Maps and GPS

o Unfolding a map and pinpointing your location with your finger and trying to find directions to a location is a rare scene today. Built-in maps are vital in today’s everyday life when it comes to navigating your way around a city.

· Calculator

o In the past, a mathematical calculation would summon someone to rummage for their calculator or if they’re bright, they would mentally do calculations. The iPhone’s calculator just needs a swipe and can help with both complicated problems and simple calculations in a restaurant or during a shopping spree.

· MP3 and iPod

o People would walk around with a second device to play and listen to music whether it be the Walkman or later the iPod. The iPhone now saves the space and effort to walk around with music at hand.
