U.S. Cellular Device Workshop

Natural disasters can happen at any time. A smartphone or tablet can serve as a digital diary or fire safe in an emergency. If the worst-case scenario happens, important information can be recovered. U.S. Cellular associates will offer tips on how and what residents might want to capture and store in their iPhone 7 or Samsung Galaxy S7 smartphone, such as vital paperwork, belongings and insurance policy numbers, during a free Device Workshop. Guests don’t need to be U.S. Cellular customers to attend. “Our associates are available to show residents how to use a smartphone or tablet to store critical information, so they have it when they need it most,” said Mike Adams, U.S. Cellular’s director of sales in Iowa and Nebraska. “People rely on our high-quality network to connect them to loved ones and information they need when emergency situations occur. Through this workshop, we’re trying to help prepare for the unexpected.” The free Device Workshop starts at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 8 at 8475 Hickman Road in Urbandale.
