Tip to boost iPhone & iPad battery life
One of the inescapable truths of modern technology is its penchant for regularly sucking from the national grid, like some kind of crazed electronic vampire. You might consider your iPhone or iPad to be the most amazing technology in the world, but they’re little more than metal-and-glass slabs when out of juice. Thankfully, it doesn’t have to be like that.
In this giant tutorial article we’ve got some brilliant battery-saving tricks and tips that will help you keep your battery running all day long, whether you’re on a tiny iPhone 4s or a massive iPad Pro.
These tips will also help you to get your iPhone to last a little bit longer when you’re away for the weekend without your charging cable; during a power cut; or when you’re pootling along on a slow train, trying to coax your iPhone into surviving what would otherwise be a long and boring journey home. Follow these tricks to give your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch enough power to last those crucial extra minutes – or even hours.
Here, then, are the best ways to improve your iPhone or iPad’s battery life, from system-wide settings worth tweaking to third-party apps that you should stop – or start – using in order to preserve battery life. We’ve updated this article for iOS 9, but many of the tips work for iOS 8 and iOS 7.
