<h2>Tips and Tricks to increase iPhone and iPad Battery Life!</h2>
Hallo friends! After millions of research with my Million Dollar Babies! iPhone and iPad, which of course after came after being slapped on my face with regular issues Like, Low battery by noon or Calls cut out due to battery Low. It was high time when I had to beg mobile phone from stranger to reach out my Mom who was worried about my where about.
I will like to share it Simple and Easy Tips to Save your precious Battery without downloading Paid or Free apps.
Rule No 1. First Check Usage of Battery
Settings > General > Usage > Battery Usage to check your Usage and Standby times.
Usage:- time reflects how long you have used the phone since the last charge
Standby:- How long you have been using your phone since the last charge
Important Test to Check Is your beloved Battery working fine?
Before performing this Test, Keep a Note of Usage and Standby Time.
Put the device to sleep by pressing the on/off switch at the top.
After 10 minutes check the changes in the times, if your Device is working perfectly Usage Time would have gone up by less than 2 minutes while Standby time would have gone up by 10 minutes.
Image helps us better understand which Apps are killing our Battery Life. Like for example Facebook is draining Battery by 15% also Google Maps 7%
Address this Issue by switching off Wi-Fi when not needed
Brightness kills Battery performance- Lighting the pixels on Cells Retina display requires a lot of energy. At full brightness battery lasted around 6 hours, 21 minutes while at half brightness IPhone lasted 9 hours, 48 minutes. Save your battery by adjusting brightness.
Tip: - Switch on to Auto Brightness.
Auto lock IPhone- Allow your phone not to be awake when not needed as Screen of your IPhone is consuming power. Keep habit of pressing Sleep/Wake button on the top once you have finished using your IPhone.
Tip:- Settings > General > Auto-Lock and set your iPhone to sleep after one minute of inactivity.
Low Coverage use Airplane Mode- In areas where network is low or with a poor signal like basement of Mall, switch on to Airplane Mode. Antenna of IPhone is continuously checking for nearby cellular networks which can drain battery fast.
Tip: - In this mode you can connect with Wi-Fi available but it can still affect your battery life.
Disable WI-FI or Data- Disable WI-FI or Data when not needed. If you are off to Goodnight Sleep and don’t need updates, just disable WI-FI or Data services which will extend battery life.
Tip: - Settings > Wi-Fi and ensure Ask to Join Networks is set to On. This will help you spot open networks to join.
Disable Bluetooth - If you're not using it to connect to a speaker, headphones, or other accessory, KEEP Bluetooth OFF as it is considered to be a battery-drainer.
Tip: - General > Bluetooth and set Bluetooth to Off.
Turn off AirDrop- Unfortunately AirDrop is a battery killer, because of the way AirDrop seeks out nearby iPhone to hook up with. So Use AirDrop when it's needed.
Tip: - Switch off AirDrop in the Control Centre.
Turn down iPhone volume- Don’t be surprised if I say playing music or other audio affects battery life, music equalizer takes up a surprising amount of power. So if you are planning to Play Music you can either keep volume down.
Tip: - Switch to headphones, which won't require as much power as the iPhone's internal speakers.
Stop iPhone vibrating- Keep vibration Off for Message or Alerts or turn it if Only needed.
These are some of simple to Use Tricks I implement to extend my IPhone Battery Life. I will be happy if it helps you somehow; will try to experiment on some new features. Till then Good Bye!
