Is your smartphone an asset or a liability? Let's talk


Few years ago i had the mindset that having a smartphone is a liability and this lead me to using Nokia torch for two years plus ( )

Don't be shocked, i had a laptop so i was still connected to the digital world, so I believed that if you had a laptop there's no need for a smartphone.

If you are on this table or had been on this table, let me hear you say yea, yeah !

This whole idealogy change it when my laptop screen developed a problem that required me to change the screen completely.

When i made enquiries about changing my laptop screen i was told it will cost me more than 20,000 naira and that got me thinking ( )

Back then i had up to 40,000 Naira with me, that was when the idea of having a smartphone dropped on my mind and i said instead of repairing my laptop I decided to get a new phone.

Hmmmm my brothers and sisters

My whole world changed because i was welcomed to the world of 4G and super fast internet and the experience was awesome compared to my laptop.

So i started seeking for ways to monetize my phone since my laptop is bad.

This was how i discovered two unique features that allowed me to compile and publish my first digital E-book.

An experience that took me five years to master was easily transformed into words with just the help of my smartphone and two unique apps in less than 4 hours.

Could you imagine that…

Something that would have taken me a week or more while typing and editing with my laptop and then converting it to E-book.

Would you love to know about this two unique apps?

Sure you do…

They are;
Gboard (Google Text-to-Speech)
Google docs

How did i put them to full use…

First i wrote down all my ideas and experience i want to compile and publish into a book.

When i was done writing, i opened my Google docs app and then started typing with my Google keyboard that has the Google Text-to-Speech feature.

Now the question that is occupying your mind now is how did i start typing away on my keyboard?

The answer is no because i started typing with my voice, yes my voice.

I clicked on the mic button on my phone keyboard and and it said speak now, then i started speaking and that was it.

This awesome app transformed my speech to written words on my phone so i did not type again.

The only thing i did was to edit the things it has written down since it does not have features for punctuations for now.

My Google docs came in very handy with features a bit similar to MS word and what surprises me is the autosave feature.

When i was done typing and compiling my ideas and experience, i started looking for how to get the file because it was automatically saved in my Google drive.

When i finally figured out how to download my file and downloaded it, i found out that my document is now already in pdf format.

No wonder they say that the computer in our smartphone now is far more superior and powerful than the one that put the first man on the moon.

Imagine that ( )

My dear if you are still seeing your smartphone as a liability do think twice, as for me my smartphone is now an asset and I will keep exploring for more unique features.

Do try this out on your own if you are smartphone user.
