Can you use itouch as a phone




















You can download custom apps, check email, browse news stories and even use video chat. In some cases, you may be unable to get online with your iPod if there isn't an available Wi-Fi network.

As long as you have a 3G or 4G signal and a data plan, most Android phones allow you to broadcast your own Wi-Fi network, and you can then tether your iPod to that network and access the Internet on it.

Open the "Settings" app on your phone. Depending on your device, this will either be a shortcut on your Home screen, or you can find it by tapping the "All apps" option on the Home screen and tapping the "Settings" app.

Tap "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot. Later, you can disable the hotspot by tapping this option again. Apple didn't really update a whole lot here, other than add the newer processor originally used in the iPhone 7, which is itself already dated.

So, in that sense, it feels a bit like recycled hardware. I noticed that loading apps was definitely slower than on my iPhone XS Max, and you shouldn't expect higher-end games to run as smoothly. And you don't get new features like wireless charging, which would have been great. I also wish it had Touch ID or Face ID, since I'm just not used to pressing the home button and then having to enter in a 4-digit password to unlock a device any more.

And, for a device so focused on music, I wish it had stereo speakers instead of the single down-firing one.

The front-facing camera is just one megapixel, which is pretty much laughably bad on paper. I took a selfie with my editor outside a restaurant and thought it was fine, though blurry due to the lack of any optical image stabilization.

Again, your kids might like it, but adults might prefer something better with portrait mode, like you'd get on an iPhone XS Max. The 8-megapixel camera on the back is just fine, and now supports augmented reality so you can use apps that let you drop digital objects into the real world.

Kids might like Angry Birds AR, which lets you slingshot birds at bad guys on your desk, for example. The screen is just OK. You can see the pixels, so it's not as sharp as Apple's screens on newer iPhones, or nearly as colorful. Finally, while I don't really want to pay for another data plan, it would be pretty cool to have the option to carry this anywhere and get internet access even when Wi-Fi isn't available, like you might with an LTE iPad.

I personally use Pinger. It gives you a free phone number to send and receive calls, and incoming calls are free, as are all text messages. Now forward to the number of your disposable phone if Skype or TouchTone doesn't answer. There you go. Theresa Theresa 1. Welcome to Ask Different!
