On the bottom of page 17, in describing the Home button, you use the terms "tap", "click", "touch", (and at the bottom of 18) "press". Seems very confusing when there are only two physical possibilities (I'd suggest standardizing on "touch" and "click" to avoid confusion). Presumably these four terms (and perhaps others) are used interchangeably throughout the book. |

It says, "...specify how quickly the password is requested before locking someone out". Seems like confusing wording to describe a timeout period before the phone is locked, particularly when it is measured in minutes. |

Books says the "Require passcode" option lets you specify 1,15,30,60 or 210 minutes. My phone, brand new 6, and up to date, does not give me these options and the guy at the Verizon store says they do not exist. |

When you share a contact card how much information gets sent? For example, you usually do not want to share a person's birthday, or notes field which might contain security information like their alarm code(s) or passcodes. Could you confirm it just sends name, address, emails and not other info. |
