### When You Need Double-Sided Tape
If you don’t have double-sided tape, you can use personal adhesive bandages as a substitute. To create double-sided tape from bandages, simply roll them as shown in the image and stick it onto the surface. You can use this to fix broken toy parts or even hang a picture: you just need more bandages.

### Wiggly Furniture
If your furniture is wobbly, place a coin under the leg. A coin is more solid and reliable than using paper or cardboard.

### **Finding Your Phone**

Have you ever misplaced your phone at home and couldn’t remember where you left it? To easily find your device, copy and paste this link: **www.google.com/android/find** into your Google search bar. This system will ring your phone within 5 minutes, even if it’s on silent mode. Pretty handy, right?

### **Cleaning Windows**

To identify which parts of the window are not clean, wipe the inside of the window horizontally and the outside vertically from top to bottom.

### **Helping Guests Locate Your Home**

Take a picture of your house and send it to your guest while giving them directions. This will help them locate your home more quickly.

### **Cleaning Your Keyboard**

To accurately reassemble your keyboard after cleaning, take a picture of it before disassembling.

### **Removing Garlic Smell**

You can get rid of garlic smell on your hands by simply rubbing them on any stainless steel surface near you.

### **Getting Ketchup Out of the Bottle**

To get tomato sauce out of the bottle more quickly, put a drinking straw into the bottle. You will be surprised!

### **Watching Videos Like on TV**

To make YouTube display videos in full-screen mode and in HD quality (if available) by default, paste the following code into your Google search bar: **www.youtube.com/leanback**.

### **Removing Stains**

You can easily remove stubborn stains by mixing dish soap and water together. Spray this mixture directly onto the stain, and it will instantly start to dissolve.

### **Easy Recall**

If you read or hear something you need to remember, chew gum with a particular flavor. When you need to recall this information accurately, chew the same flavor of gum again—you will remember everything more easily.

### **Quickly Reheat Food**

Any food will take some time to reheat in the microwave. If you move the food to the edges of the plate, it will heat up faster than usual.

### **Nail Painting Technique**

For a smooth, thin coat of nail polish that dries quickly and has no bubbles, put the bottle in the fridge for about 15-20 minutes.

### **Wearing High Heels All Day**

To stay comfortable while wearing high heels all day, protect your second and third toes with a support tool like Urgo.

### **Stopping the Dripping Sound from the Faucet**

If you don’t want to be annoyed by the dripping sound from the faucet, place a cloth or a string of fabric over it to channel the water. This will help you not feel bothered while waiting for the plumber.

### **Taking Great Photos at the Zoo**

Before going to the zoo, wear clothes similar to the uniforms of the workers there. In this case, the animals are more likely to look at you “friendly.”

Have fun!
