Call, send messages, watch television, play, pay for everything and more is what we can do today with our mobiles. But apart from this, we can also make other uses that you probably didn't know about.
Can you imagine stopping using the keys to open the door of your house with the iPhone?. Or better yet, can you imagine always carrying your home phone with you? Next we are going to tell you four things that we can do with our mobile device and that, shortly, everyone will use.
4 uses of the mobile that you probably don't know:
-
Open doors with mobile:
It is too early to know if in the near future, we can replace a door key with a mobile. For a particular use it may be that we are far from this function, but it is already being implemented in hotels.
The Hilton hotel chain has just introduced its Digital Key in Spain. Specifically, the Hotel Hilton Diagonal Mar, in Barcelona, will allow you to open the doors of the rooms from your mobile, without the need for any physical support. This "key" will be downloaded in the form of an app on the mobile at the time of registering the stay at the hotel.

This will also be used to access other common areas of the hotel such as the gym, elevators .

Watch your front door from your iPhone:
Ring is an intelligent doorbell that replaces the conventional one that we have at the door of the house. Come on, it replaces what we know as a telephone.
Ring lets you see who's calling home, wherever you are
This product incorporates a camera and a motion sensor. In turn, it will be connected to the Wi-Fi at home and every time someone knocks on the door, we can see on the screen of our mobile who it is.
The app also allows you to communicate by voice with whoever is calling, wherever you are.
This device also increases the security of the house by recording all the movements that take place at the door of the house, even in the dark.
-
Withdraw money from the ATM:
Surely you didn't know that you can withdraw money from the ATM without having to carry your card with you.
Withdraw money with your mobile and without the need for a card
Today, each entity has its own application and in order to withdraw money from the mobile, it is normally done as follows. We will request the amount to be withdrawn at an ATM. The branch sends a security code by message to the mobile or to the bank's application. This code must be validated at the ATM and when we validate it, we can withdraw the amount.
So you know, when you have to withdraw cash from an ATM and you don't have your card with you, enter your bank's app and process the withdrawal from your mobile phone.

Turn on the lights and heating remotely:
It is part of home automation. Today there are smart bulbs that, through WIFI connection, allow us to be manipulated from the mobile itself.
Control the lights at home from your iPhone
We can be in Hawaii and, from our iPhone,we can turn the lights on and off in our home. Some of them even allow you to change color.
Regarding heating, there are companies that allow you to control the temperature of your home remotely. These same manufacturers have studies that show significant energy savings using this type of device.
What do you think? You knew these uses.
The mobile has positioned itself as one of the most important objects in our lives.Now, seeing the uses of the mobile, we can say that this has only just begun and that, apart from allowing us to communicate, it will help us manage, control, etc. almost all the "sections" of our lives.
In the future, losing your smartphone will be a problem.
And you, did you know these uses of mobile phones? If you know of any others, we'd love for you to share them with the whole community by writing them in the comments of this article.
Greetings.
