Pool time!

14 Jun

The Jax Truckies Food Truck Rally this past weekend was a great event but a wet one. I was really glad I had the phone case from Life Proof so I could stand in line, take pictures, and text without worrying about my phone.

I was in line at Corner Taco when my friend, Tia, came up and asked me if I liked my Life Proof. Of course, I said yes. She replied that she did too and showed me her nice purple case! Wow! When she said she bought hers because she saw me post about mine, I was floored!

One thing Tia mentioned has stuck with me since we talked. She asked if I’d dunked mine in a glass of water yet, which I actually haven’t done. I did properly test it before using it which involved putting it in a sink of water. I’ve also done two mud runs and the Gate River Run with my phone. The one thing I have done, but haven’t shared yet is that it’s perfect for pool time!

A few weekends ago we definitely had a great time playing around in the pool especially thanks to the phone case.

The case definitely works well under water. A few things to note:

Under water, the screen isn’t responsive to touch, so you have to have the camera launched before you go under water.
You use the side button (volume up button) to actually take the picture. This feature was activated on one of the recent iOS fixes. (I’m not positive, but I think it’s also available to be ‘turned on’ under settings)

Maybe this sounds like a hassle? It really wasn’t. I’m just taking pictures and video under water. I wasn’t checking Facebook or doing something that required a lot of screen taps like texting. If I read a book on my phone in the bath or shower, it is a little bit more difficult because the water spray blots the screen. I just swipe it away with my thumb or a towel, and it works fine again.

Knowing how thrilled I am with my case, Michelle from WaterProofCases.net is offering my readers a discount of the Life Proof Case.

Hopefully if there are any more of you out there interested in getting a new case, I can help make it a wee bit more affordable for you!

Oh, as if you need another reason to consider this case? I no longer fear of getting pushed into the pool with my phone in my pocket!
