How to save battery on your iPhone – What to do if the battery drains too quickly?
Regardless of the iPhone model you have, the following tricks will help you gain those extra hours of battery life you so desperately need. There are many factors that affect the battery life of your iPhone, but the essential thing is to know how it works.

The iPhone uses a lithium-ion based battery. This type of battery has no "memory". What exactly does this mean? Well, it doesn't affect the health of the battery if you charge it for a while, unplug the charger after an hour, then charge it again a few minutes later.

However, any battery, whether in an iPhone, computer, or even a car, has a finite life. After all, they are consumable and organic elements that suffer wear and tear over the years. Bear this in mind, because although our tricks will make your battery last longer, it is difficult to make it last as long as it did when you first bought your iPhone. That said, what do you say we start with tips to save battery life on your iPhone?

What to disable to save battery life on your iPhone?

  • Background App refresh: There are Apps that run in the background without you even realizing it. Disabling them will save a lot of battery life on your iPhone. To do this go to Settings> General> Background App refresh. Disable all of them at once, or choose which Apps you want to keep running in the background.
  • Location: Many Apps also make excessive use of your location, such as social networks or even the browser. We recommend you disable the Apps and services that you do not use.
  • Unimportant notifications: Have you ever stopped to think about how many notifications you receive on your iPhone? Many of them are not important and light up your screen for a moment. We recommend that you disable any lock screen notifications from all secondary Apps so that you can focus on what's really important. You can manage notifications from Settings> Notifications.
  • 5G connection: Do you have one of the latest iPhone models with 5G? It is certainly a much faster device, but you probably don't need such a fast download speed in your day-to-day life. To disable 5G go to Settings> Mobile Data> Options> Voice & Data.

    More tips and tricks to save battery life on your iPhone

    • Activate the battery saving mode: This mode limits the processor so that it does not consume so much battery. It also dims the screen and reduces animations. To activate it go to Settings> Battery> Low Power Mode.

    • Use dark mode: By illuminating less of the screen, dark mode is a great ally to save battery on your iPhone. You can activate the dark mode in Settings> Display and brightness.

    • Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and mobile data: Years ago it was very typical to turn off Wi-Fi when you went out, to turn off your mobile data when you got home, not to connect Bluetooth, etc. Today, the story is different. For example, if you have an Apple Watch or AirPods you need to have both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connected. However, your mobile data is hardly used if you are at home. Still, there may be situations, which it is useful to disable these services. For example, if you are going to be on the subway without coverage for a long time, you could deactivate mobile data. If you are going to be travelling for a week, turn off Wi-Fi as there will be no known network. It is very important that you do this from settings or by asking Siri. If you do it from the control centre, the deactivation is not 100%.

    • Update the software: You've probably heard "I updated my iPhone and I've had less battery ever since". We have to tell you that this is really unlikely to happen. On the contrary, software updates always fix bugs and include improvements to your current version. So update! It's better than what you currently have.
