5 Phone Accessory Hacks To Save Money

There’s no doubt our phones have become an essential accessory to our everyday lives. They no longer serve the sole purpose of a phone, but also offer other helpful functions such as the calendar, alarm, GPS services and much more. Today you can buy loads of great phone accessories online that make your phone even more invaluable, but if you want to save a bit of cash why not try these useful tricks? They could prove a life saver!

1. The phone turned wallet.

If you’re going out and want to travel light, then why not utilise your phone case as a wallet? Simply slip your card or cash in between your phone and the phone case and you’re good to go! It’s a great hack to have for the person on the go. If you find that you frequently prefer travelling light with just your phone in tow, you might like to consider purchasing one of our nifty wallet phone cases. Check out some of our great styles here, you'll find some of our favourite phone accessories online right now!

2. Waterproof your phone.

The last thing you want when you’re at a festival, or just facing our classic English wet weather, is to find that your phone has been soaked through. So, if you’re in need of a bit of extra protection from the wet weather, here’s your cheap and easy fix – a sandwich bag! Simply put your phone in a sandwich bag and you’ve instantly got yourself a waterproof case. Of course, if you’re looking for a more stylish phone accessory online, you might like to consider one of our stylish and practical water repellent cases and screens instead.

3. Make your battery length last longer.

If you don’t have a portable battery, here’s an easy guide to making that 10% battery life go further. Go into your settings and select either airplane mode or simply turn off data and close any unused apps to save battery. If you still require some of your data for specific apps, you can select which ones you don’t need or see which are using up the most data. If you constantly find your phone out of juice, however, you might want to think about a more permanent fix to the problem and purchase a portable battery pack.

4. The instant selfie stick.

Here’s a hack you’re sure to use all the time! Selfie sticks are one of the most popular phone accessories online today but if you don’t have a selfie stick, or simply don’t have it on you, plug in your headphones and use the volume buttons on the cord to take selfies with an extended arm.

5. Trying to save on data?

If you’re running low on data, try taking screenshots of your browser windows. That way, if you lose service or run out of data, you can still access the information and it won’t cost you in reloading! These phone accessory hacks can be a real life saver!
