The 11 Best Tips To Extend Your iPhone Battery Life

The more often you use an iPhone, the sooner the battery goes out. Therefore, get the most out of your battery with these practical battery tips.



The best iPhone battery tips

Many people have their own tricks to keep their iPhone's battery as long as possible. There are many fables, but in this overview we only discuss the tips that really work. By making clever use of the tips below, make sure your smartphone lasts for as long as possible.

1. Check which apps are sucking too much stream

Measuring is know, and that also applies to your battery usage. That's why Apple has made a handy overview since iOS 8, where you can see exactly which apps use the most power. You are viewing this overview as follows:
1.   Open the Settings app;
2.   Tap "Battery";
3.   See "Battery Usage."
Next, you'll see exactly what apps most battery has slipped from in the past 24 hours or past 7 days. By tapping the clock icon, you can also see how many minutes the app was on screen and how long the app remained active in the background.

2. Listen to the suggestions of your iPhone

With the advent of iOS 11 , your iPhone will itself give tips for saving your battery life. For this, the app looks at your device, for example, suggesting a decrease in brightness. These tips are different for everyone, and are hidden in the battery settings screen. You can access these via Settings> Battery> Battery Suggestions. On each suggestion you can tap to open the corresponding setting. This allows you to proceed directly to action.

3. Use Energy Saving (if needed)

As the name suggests, you can use this iPhone feature to put energy on the power. Your device itself turns off features, turn the screen on black and refresh less features in the background. Convenient, though this has noticeable negative effects on your device's performance. Therefore, we recommend using this feature only if you know that you are tight with battery life. In addition, your iPhone proposes 20% battery to activate Energy Saving.

4. Adjust the background activity of these features

To get the most out of your iPhone battery, you can also turn off some features that you do not use. These are also unused actively in the background, and do not stop until you turn them off manually. For example, you can disable Bluetooth via the Control Panel if you do not want to connect devices to your iPhone, and you can turn off Handoff, auto downloads, and auto backup.
As stated, it differs from user to user which features may or may not be disabled. So take a look at what features you use or not, and adjust your settings accordingly. For example, we like Handoff, but we always download software updates manually.

5. Set your screen properly

Of course, the way you use an iPhone has a lot of influence on battery life. But by adjusting the automatic lock, depth effect and brightness, you can quickly calculate some time.

By setting the auto lock in Settings> Display and Brightness> Auto Slot, the iPhone screen will turn black if you do not use it. By not automatically determining the brightness in the same menu, but reducing the battery life, you can maximize battery life. Also

6. Turn off GPS (Location Detection) for many apps

For some apps, it's important that they know your location data, but enough other apps do not need this information. By retrieving this access to apps, you not only save your battery, but also protect your privacy. Follow the steps below and set "Never" to all apps if your location is not required.
1.   Open the Settings app;
2.   Tap "Privacy";
3.   In Location Features, set all apps to Never or In Use.



7. Be picky with notifications

Just like turning off gps, it may also help turn off notifications on some apps to let your iPhone run longer. After all, each notification will light up the screen, turn off a sound and let your phone vibrate. In addition, notifications are just a goal: get your attention and make sure you get your iPhone back. So be selective in the apps that can send these messages. You disable notifications as follows:
1.   Open the Settings app;
2.   Choose "Notification";
3.   Choose the apps you may or may not send.

8. Do not completely close apps

The forced closing of apps is not good for your iPhone, and makes the device even slower and the battery is still empty. This is because your iPhone needs to reboot an app every time, instead of re-activating an app frozen in the background. Therefore, you only need to close apps to force. In the tip below, we will tell you more about this:

9. Turn off certain functions

If every percentage is up, you can turn off some features (temporarily) to save battery life. For example, turn off 4G and do not use dynamic (moving) background on your homescreen. You can also reduce the movement via the Accessibility Settings. This allows you to see less flashy animations, making your iPhone less spectacular, but saving your battery. Here's how to do this:
1.   Open the Settings app;
2.   Tap 'General';
3.   Choose 'Accessibility';
4.   Select 'Reduce Movement'.

10. Turn off the Siri

Hey Siri , turn yourself off! If you rarely or never use the voice assistant, you can turn off the function better. Of all iPhone battery tips, this is one that is intended only for people who do not find Siri useful. Via Settings> Siri, make sure your iPhone does not listen anymore if someone says 'Hé Siri'. Of course you save power here.

11. Make smart use of 'do not disturb'


If you do not want to completely unsubscribe, not disturb mode is the best alternative. This feature can stop messages so that they do not let your iPhone screen light up. Therefore, we recommend turning on mode if you do not use the phone. For example, if you go to sleep, see if your iPhone is in the safe at the gym.
