This is a HUGE, heavy, and fairly intimidating tome – it’s not at all what I expected. The book has over 715 glossy pages, and weighs about 3 pounds. It’s not exactly something you can tuck into your purse or the glove compartment of your car. This is a substantial reference book with more information in it than most of us will ever actually need. That said, it is very clearly illustrated, with excellent directions for doing just about anything you might want to do with your iPhone. It also has a comprehensive index, so you can look up what you want to find out about (rather than thumb through hundreds of pages).The book covers a range of iPhones (4, 5, and 6 versions), and because of that there are sections that won’t apply to your phone. I have the 5s, and I had no trouble finding the material that applied to that version (for example, the “getting started” illustration shows the iPhone 6, but the differences are clearly marked so that I could clearly find where the Wake/Sleep button is on my phone). The entire first chapter of this book is for people who know absolutely nothing about an iPhone, which can be a huge help for people who are a little bit technophobic (or a lot!).The book is aimed at “seniors,” which is what inspired me to select it for review – I’m definitely a senior, and I’ve only owned my iPhone for about nine months. I know how to make a phone call, how to send a text message, how to take a picture, and how to use Safari to surf the web. But that’s about it. I don’t know anything about Apps, or how to use Maps to get driving directions. Chapter 15 was extremely helpful with that, with clearly itemized instructions and good illustrations. So now I can get spoken directions from my phone without dragging out my Garmin!
