Spring Cleaning Extends To Your Tech Too

We all know that clutter that randomly piles up in the house, if you are anything like me, you find a way to blame it on the kids! But one thing we can’t blame the kids for is the clutter that has to do with our cell phones.

Just like our homes, our phones get unnecessary clutter built up on them and your spring cleaning technique can definitely extend to your phones as well. Here are some tips for cleaning up the mess can spread to your phones!


Wireless Charging With Nokia

How about tidying up those cords?  I hate all the cords associated with our smart phones, they just pile up and get tangled up and make a complete mess. Did you know that many Lumia phones can be charged WITHOUT a cord?

Thanks to the Nokia DT-903 Wireless Charging Plate, charging your phone can be as simple as placing your phone on this device. That means no more charging cords in the house. The Nokia DT-903 is available at Microsoft Stores for just $59, a small price to keep that desk clean.Microsoft Spring Cleaning Charger Compatability

Windows phones are incredibly customizable and it’s easy too! Have you heard of the #TileArt app? Well if you have a Windows Phone like the Lumia 830, you need it. Not only will #TileArt help you organize all your apps, it will let you delete the unused ones as well. This is a fun and easy way to extend spring cleaning to your tech.

Another way to clean up the clutter is to go paperless & keep all your files in one location. Did you know a cloud based digital lifestyle is the way to go? You can use a cloud service like OneDrive to sync all your data across all your devices.

This could be used for everyday items like receipts or writing up your grocery list on the desktop and accessing it on your phone when you are in the store. Or, this could be used to share much more important data, like your writings, pictures or blueprints – use OneDrive and they can be accessible on every device you have. There is even a OneDrive app for Android and iPhone users.OneDrive

Spring cleaning just gained an entirely new meaning, it needs to extend to your tech, especially the ones you use on a daily basis. Keep them operating fast, clutter free, and stay organized!

One last thing – and this one actually has to do with cleaning – your phone is with you everywhere, you need to clean it – I am sad to say that I haven’t taken a cleaning wipe to my phone in months (maybe longer – gross). Disinfect your phone, disinfect your phone, disinfect your phone – I have found that as a parent, if you say something 3 times there is a better chance it will stick!

Spring cleaning is a must, it’s not always fun, but muscle thru it and you will love the results!

    Disinfect your phone using what? We don’t have disinfecting wipes at our house. My iPhone is in an otter is, so I take that apart and clean that once in a while.

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog got its name because we have two kids born a year apart and my husband, Dave, and I always joked that "the kids were too wired and we were too tired!" :)

Fast forward a bit—now the kids are off to college (how did that happened so fast!) and since 2009, I’ve been blogging through the chaos, coffee in hand, finding the best in family, travel, and tech—because honestly, who has time for bad gadgets and boring trips?

So, whether you're searching for family travel inspiration, tech gadgets, or tips to enhance family life, you're in the right place because the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here!
