Apple iPhone 4/S Ways To Improve Battery Performance
- Turn down the screen’s brightness. You don’t need the glare from the screen all the time really.
- Auto-Lock your screen. No more accidentally leaving it on and having it drain battery. This step helps save that much more of your precious battery life.
- Disable 3G when there’s really no need (or if you are going to be in an area where 3G service is intermittent or bad).
- Switch off Push mail and automatic checking unless necessary. This reduces the server load. Also, for iCloud and any other services - automatic syncing usually means a drain on the battery. Go easy with this one and turn on only those that really matter.
- Notification Center - Remove or turn off notifications that you don’t really care about. I take out the weather, stock information as well as lay to rest many apps where i don’t care to be notified immediately. Also, don’t have too many notifications that “view on lock screen”, it causes your screen to come on more than you would like, thereby draining your battery again.
- Turn off services when not in use (Bluetooth, Wifi, Personal Hotspot, etc).
- Disable Location Based Services (those that you don’t really need to use and those under System Services that may not be applicable to your country or you don’t use like Compass Callibration, Location-Based iAds, Setting Time Zone, Traffic).
- Under Settings, General, About, Diagnostics & Usage, don’t send. Automatically send just seems logical that every little error sent will unwittingly drain your battery for no apparent reason.
- Clean Up - Make sure you kill any active apps in the background. Double click your menu button and X them all ever so often and at least you know those apps aren’t going to go ape shit on your battery.
That’s what i did, maybe this will help you with your battery life!
