Top Tips & Tricks To Enhance Your iPhone Battery Life

No-one likes if the battery life of their iPhone is exhausted within much less time of their expectation. Apple is good at squeezing maximum performance out of the hardware in the iPhone and that's one of the reasons that the iPhone's battery is comparatively small. 

 

Here are a few simple tips you can follow to get a whole lot more juice from your Apple smartphone.

Keep a check on signal strength

If you're in an area with a poor signal then you might consider switching Airplane mode on, which stops the constant searching that sucks the life from your phone.

Try using Wi-Fi instead of cellular data whenever its possible, as that provides a better and stable connection reducing the battery usage searching for a signal.

Turn-off the app notification

Some apps will spam you with pointless notifications. Every one of them is sucking down some battery life, so cut them off at the source. Go to settings > notification centre and tap on any apps you don't want notifications from.

Modify Display Settings

Your display is costly to power, so you want it to shut down quickly when you aren't using it.
Go to Settings > General > Auto-lock and see if you can live with a shorter time before the screen auto-locks.
You should also head to Settings > Wallpaper & brightness and turn 'Auto-brightness' off to save some battery. Set the brightness of your screen as low as possible and adjust it to high, only when needed, as this will save a better chunk of battery.

Remove animated backgrounds

 

You don't need dynamic backgrounds and parallax, '3D' effects. They're fun but they're munching your power. Pick a static image or a favorite photo in Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness, then choose 'Wallpaper' and turn 'Reduce Motion' on in Settings > General > Accessibility.

Reduce refreshing the background

People imagine that swiping apps closed in the multitasking menu is saving power, but you really need to be taking a look in Settings > General > Background App refresh to really make a difference.

These apps still refresh when you actually load them up, which is a lot more efficient for your battery.
