Karen takes you on a tour of the important default apps that come from Apple, so whether you want to understand the mechanics of receiving and placing a phone call, **check for voicemail from your boss**, run a FaceTime call with your cousin, **take a photo** and send it to your Mom, play Game Center games with your friends, listen to a podcast, **map a route** to your next appointment, or match certain contacts to specific **ringtones**, you'll find help and advice. This ebook covers the iPhone 3G, 3GS, and 4, including the Verizon iPhone 4.
