Last time I told you about the amazing things Google Lens can do, but even just your camera can do
much more than taking snapshots. Here are just a few ideas:
- Keep a photo of your pet and their ID, that way you have a photo handy if he/she goes missing
(could be a good idea for kids, too, perhaps?) - Use it as a notebook: take snaps of recipes in magazines, plants, art, decorations that you like and
would like to try out yourself - If you rent a car, take a picture of the car and the number plate; easier to find if you don’t
remember exactly what is looks like - Or even with your own car in a strange carpark, take a photo with indicators like row/level
number etc to find it again afterwards - If you keep a shopping list on a whiteboard on the fridge, take a photo of it before going
shopping, no need to transcribe it. Also, you could take a photo of the contents of your fridge to
see what you have and what you need - Take a photo of any cable/plug placement before you move them, easier to put everything back
where it belongs afterwards - If there is a label in a shop high up, and you can’t see it properly, hold up your phone and take a
picture of it (or even if the print is just too small); and then zoom in
I’m sure there are a million other things where this always there little camera can help. Just remember to delete the photos when you don’t need them anymore.
