Uses for Your Cell Phone Camera

1.Computer Screen Capture
2.Remember Dates - The date is automatically stored with an image so if you need to remember a date and had a picture of it with your cell phone you can find it there.
3.Cable Connections - Capture a picture of the connections with your phone camera before you disconnect to easily be able to see what goes where when you have to reconnect.
4.Car Parking - Turn around and take a picture of the exit door after you enter the store so you'll know where leave to get back to your car.
5.Replace pen & paper - Take a picture lists, subway maps, notice boards, etc.
6.Maps and directions - take a picture of the map from the computer on your phone.
7.Rent a car - When you rent a car take a picture of any scratches or dents before you leave so you don't run into a dispute when returning the car to the agent.
8.Security Weapon - Before you board a taxi in some unknown place, take a picture of the license plate and driver details that are generally written near the passenger seat. Email the picture to your spouse or friend as a security measure.
9.Shopping Alone – If you are in a store shopping without your spouse, get his/her opinion on the stuff you are about to purchase by emailing pictures though your phone.
10.As a Mirror – When you are about to reach the party, take a self-picture with your mobile phone to make sure that that makeup and hair style is in perfect condition.

*Take a picture of a business card. (office building too if you need to return)
*Use at the library to capture something from a book or a book cover to remember it for another time.
* Take a picture of what you are repairing or a part you need so you can show them at the hardware store.
*Quick pictures of an accident
*Pictures of damage to home or property
*Photograph serial, lot number or identifying code, or paint code before you go to the store.
