You could check the text settings and choose extra small font, small margins etc. But the choppiness is due to the width of the screen. You might try reading with the phone in landscape position which should get more text on each line. HTH, Richard The only limits are those of vision. 

Hi Mary, As I said, I don't have iTunes Match so maybe somebody who does can confirm whether songs you buy on your phone download or not. I know they definitely do for me. I guess you could turn on automatic downloads in iTunes on your Mac and if you buy a song from your phone you can delete

Hi Flora, I don't think there is anything like that when it comes to searching the app store. Keep in mind that searching Google is quite different as you get so many more results. If you search for an app in the app store on your phone, all you get are app results. I also find it useful at
