This is because the metal and glass on the phone absorb heat quickly, and on a sunny day, this can lead to a rapid increase in the phone's internal temperature. Overheating, in turn, can cause glitches, freezing, and even total malfunctions, experts warned. But if you need to catch up on all the latest events around the world - or want to tune in your favourite reality series by the pool - there is a solution. The savvy gadget was recently discovered by one woman, Gianna Hulsen, who dubbed it a ''life-saver''. In a now-viral video, which has racked up an astronomical 10.1million views, Gianna revealed she was using a special ''phone umbrella''. While the holiday goer didn't reveal where she had purchased the clever gadget, online shoppers can find it on Shein and Temu for as little as £1.70. The purse-friendly bargain, also available on Amazon for around £4, features a suction cap which you attach to the back of your phone. Once the cup is in place, simply place the miniature umbrella - and voila, you can enjoy careless scrolling without having to worry about those harsh sunrays. Raving about the affordable buy, Gianna said: ''I'm not kidding when I say this was the best purchase for tanning. Primark drops brand new collection of bikinis in gingham, floral and colour block designs - and they'll set you back just £2.50 per piece ''It is a life-saver!'' she wrote in the caption of the video, which has since taken the internet by storm. 'I've been influenced once again!' The short clip has clearly impressed - and influenced - many, as it's won more than 250k likes and over 15k shares. How to save money on summer essentials SUNNIER days and warmer weather will leave many of us wanting to kit out gardens and outdoor areas. Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to get a great deal on summer essentials… It pays to know how to bag big savings on the likes of hot tubs paddling pools, egg chairs and outside bars. Many retailers have flash sales across entire ranges – often this ties into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends. Sign up to the mailing lists of your favourite brands and you'll be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too. Keep a close eye on the specialbuys at Aldi and middle of Lidl drops which drop a couple of times a week and usually mean great value seasonal items such as beach gear and paddling pools. If you are not in a hurry to buy an item, try adding it to the shopping cart and leaving it for a couple of days. Sometimes big brands will try to tempt you into the sale by offering you a discount. Always check if you can get cashback before paying. It's especially worth using sites such as Topcashback, Quidco and app Jamdoughnut when buying bigger ticket items such as garden furniture as you'll get a nice kickback. A staggering 316 social media users flooded to comments, where many were singing praises of the budget buy. One person said: ''100 percent- got mine at TJ. ''Ridiculous purchase at the time turned into a damn that's brilliant situation at the beach real quick.'' Another chimed in: ''Watching this while tanning and literally thinking ab how I need this.'' ''wait i need that for my kindle,'' someone else penned.
