Some apps are like energy-sucking vampires, and drain your battery life in no time. Identifying these apps and shutting them down can help you with a longer battery life.

2. Low Power Mode Mastery

This built-in feature is like a magic wand for your battery life. This feature helps reduce battery-hungry features, limit background app refresh, and automatically adjust screen brightness. Go to Setting, click on Battery, and toggle on Low Power Mode.

3. Screen Settings Savvy

Your screen's brightness and auto-lock settings can be major battery drains. However, adjusting them can help reduce screen brightness or enable Auto-Brightness, and set a shorter auto-lock time. To adjust your screen settings, go to Settings > Display & Brightness, adjust the brightness or enable Auto-Brightness, and go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock and then set a shorter auto-lock time.

4. Background App Refresh

Some apps refresh their content in the background which sucks up battery power. You are advised to limit this feature to only essential apps and Wi-Fi only (instead of cellular data). To adjust Background App Refresh, go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh, and toggle off unnecessary apps or set to Wi-Fi only.

5. Location Services Smarts

Location services can be a significant battery drain. However, you can use them wisely by disabling location services for unnecessary apps and setting location services to ‘While Using’ instead of ‘Always.’ To adjust Location Services, go to Settings > Location Services, and toggle off unnecessary apps or set them to ‘While Using.’
