Extending my iPhone battery life

Asked By Maggie Fields 10 points N/A Posted on - 04/11/2012

Hi there,

I want to bring up the subject on extending battery life.  

My iPhone works wonders for me having all the apps I need but at the battery doesn't even last until the end of my day.

That means I have to lug around my charger wherever I go.  

Do you have any suggestions as how to make my battery last all day and night if possible?

Extending my iPhone battery life

 Here are some tips on using the battery wisely to make it's life longer.

1. Turn off applications that are not being used, such as Bluetooth, WIFI, location reminders, push notifications and fetch as they drain the battery if they are on even though you're not actually using them.

2. Keep the brightness settings on Auto- Adjust.

The brighter the screen is the faster it drains the battery.

Extending my iPhone battery life

Hi 

A lot of peoples have that problem. I have some suggestions :

1.You need to make sure that you have the latest software from Apple.

2.You need to optimize your settings

• Minimize use of location services. You can do that by: Settings> General > Location services or use location services only when needed .

• Turn off push notifications. Notifications like instant messaging applications may impact battery life. You can stop that by: Settings> Notifications and set Notifications to Off.

• Fetch new data less frequently. To fetch new data manually you can choose Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars> Fetch New Data and tap Manually.

• Turn off push mail. Go to Settings> Mail,Contacts,Calendars> Fetch New Data and set Push to Off.

• Auto-check fewer email accounts. Go to Settings> Mail,Contacts,Calendar, chose an email account and set account to Off or you can delete it.

• Turn off WiFi when you don't use.

• Turn off Bluetooth too. You can do that by: Settings> General >Bluetooth and set it to Off.

• Use Airplane Mode in low-or no-coverage areas. It can increase battery life when you are in low coverage areas. Do that by Settings> and set Airplane Mode On.

• Adjust brightness. Go to settings> Brightness and drag the slider to the left to lower the default screen brightness.

• Turn off EQ. Go to Settings> iPod> EQ and trap Off.

3.Lock your phone

 

4.Use iPhone regularly. Make sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month( charge 100% and than completely run it down)

 

Hope i helped to you

Yes you can extend your iPhone battery by doing some of this practical suggestions that I can share with you, it will surely extend your battery life if you follow this what I am going to share with you.

This is some of the adjustment that you can try to do so that at least you can extend the life of your battery.

First you should turn off 3G when your not using it, it will save your battery.

Second you should disable your GPS when not in use.

Third change your settings on how often your iPhone check for new messages,adjust it to minimal.If you have many accounts,remove some of them so that your iPhone will only check for new messages on few accounts.

Don't push your data, you can manually download them so that you can save the life of your battery.Turn off your WiFi and your Bluetooth when your not using them.

Use airplane mode so that your iPhone will not search for cell networks,usually battery will be drain because it is constantly searching for signal or cell network if its not on airplane mode

You should lower your screen brightness.And lastly you should turn off the sounds on your iPhone keyboard.
