Installing a password manager means you can create passwords that are as strong as they can be, and never have to worry about forgetting them, because the app encrypts them and keeps them in its vault. Taking care of you data has never been more important and when it comes to you iPhone, that means using a password manager. We’ve also split each of those into two options, one for fun and entertainment, and one for more serious and productive apps. The remainder of this features is split by gift card amount – we’ve chosen $10, $15, and $25 as those are the most commonly given. With that caveat out the way, it’s time to get spending. So, if you want to make sure you get to spend the whole lot on gifts for yourself, spend the balance as soon as you can. That will save you a few dollars on your credit card, but it’s not a very satisfying way to spend a gift card. If you take too long deciding how to spend your gift card, you could find the whole amount is eaten up by, for example, iCloud storage monthly payments. This means if you have an ongoing Apple Music or paid-for iCloud storage subscription, the monthly cost will be deducted from your account when it falls due. It includes apps, music, movies, in-app purchases, magazine subscriptions and, crucially, subscriptions for things like Apple Music and iCloud storage. Your account balance can be used to pay for anything you buy or subscribe to from that Apple ID, whether it’s on an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, Mac, or PC. Tap Done.Īlternatively, instead of tapping Use Camera, tap ‘You can also enter your code manually.’ Now type in the 16-digit code under the sticker on the card, starting with ‘X’. The camera will read the code and your account balance will be updated with the amount on the gift card. Tap Use Camera, peel the sticker off the back of the card and hold it up to your iPhone’s camera. Scroll to the bottom of the Featured section and tap Redeem. Launch the App Store or iTunes Store app on your iPhone.

The easiest way to redeem an iTunes gift card is to use your iPhone’s camera. There is a difference, however, between Apple retail gift cards, which can only be spent in an Apple retail store, and an iTunes or App Store gift card.
