Learn how to increase the lifespan of your battery with some practical tips. Check out what to do below.
These days, we use our iPhones so much that we face battery life issues. So, let’s take a look at some tweaks to increase battery life and extend battery life.
Below are some customizations that can help you save battery and data on your mobile plan. This also relates to reducing energy usage. Read on for tips.
Cell phone settings
These tweaks not only save data, but also battery life. This is because your iPhone consumes more power when using mobile data than when using a Wi-Fi network. Here you will learn 3 actions that will help you save battery life on your iPhone.
1. Disable Wi-Fi Assistant
2. Disable iCloud Drive
3. iCloud Backup
Personal Access Settings
Leave it enabled only if you need to allow other devices to access the Internet and if you need to disable it, consumes energy of the battery when generating access signals.
Notification settings
Check all apps marked as “Allow notifications”. Check only those apps that are absolutely necessary. Note when it is the device, not the app, that sends notifications and constantly checks for notifications that lead to battery and data consumption.
Adjusting the usage time
Enable it only if you need to control screen time or app limits, or for security reasons. Not enabling it will reduce additional processing on your iPhone and save battery life.
General AirPlay and Handoff Settings
1. Select “Ask” to “Use Air Play automatically”.
2. Turn on streaming to HomePod only if you have that device.
3. For transfers, disable this rarely used advanced feature.
4. Continuous Camera: Enable this feature only when necessary.
Background apps
This option consumes a lot of processing power and drains your battery, so disable it. This prevents programs that are not running from continuing to run.
Screen and brightness adjustment
1. Reduce brightness as much as possible without losing the comfort of using your iPhone.
2. Auto Lock: choose the shortest time for the screen to lock.
3. Always-On Screen: Disable this option.
Siri and Search Settings
If you don't use Siri often, uncheck the option to activate Siri with your voice. Change it to “Press the side button to summon Siri.”
Battery Settings
1. Always check the battery status and charge level. When performing maintenance, have a professional replace the battery.
2. Mode of energy saving: Turn on when the battery level reaches 30% or 40% to extend battery life.
Privacy and Security Settings
Go to the Location Services option and see which apps actually need to know your location. If you don’t need the app to know your location, select the “None” option or select the “While using the app” option if you prefer.
Select the location option only when you need it, such as for Uber, iFood and other similar apps.
App Store Settings
1. Location: Enable the “While using” option.
2. Notification: Turn this option off. Also, always check for app updates when charging your iPhone using Wi-Fi overnight. Updating the app will improve processing and battery usage.
3. Automatic download: Disable the option as recommended in the previous point.
4. Cellular data: Disable automatic downloads on mobile data.
Email Settings
Go to “Account” and “Fetch New Data” and turn off the “Push” option to prevent your iPhone from checking for new emails. This will ensure that this process only occurs when you open your email app.
By using these tweaks to suit your needs, we hope to improve battery life and also reduce data usage on your mobile plan. See if your battery life improves after trying these tips.
