JAKARTA - Products from the Apple brand are always tempting. From various features to a charming cellphone design, everyone will definitely look at the iPhone with any series. However, what happens if this device doesn't have a very durable battery?
Yes, the iPhone is indeed known as a cellphone that is wasteful in consuming battery power compared to its Android competitors. Most iPhones need to be recharged every few hours. Even so, there are unique ways to save iPhone battery life that you can do at any time, here is a summary of VOI from Life Wire .
1. Turn off Background App Refresh
There are several features that make iPhone smarter and ready when you need it. One of these features is Background App Refresh. This feature is visible in the applications you use the most and records the time when they were used. Then the system will update the application so that the next time you open one of the applications, the latest information is waiting for you.
For example, if you check social media at 7:30 a.m., iOS will record that and automatically update the social apps before you open them. This smart feature is indeed very useful, unfortunately it can drain excess battery power.
To turn off Background App Refresh on an iPhone, open the Settings app, continue clicking General, then select Background App Refresh and swipe towards Off.
2. Don't Update Applications Automatically
This one method is quite helpful to save power. Because, if you are connected to WiFi, the iPhone will not automatically update the application. Try to replace app updates manually, and update apps when the battery is fully charged.
But, if not, turn off automatic app updates. To turn off automatic app updates, open the Settings app, tap iTunes & App Store, then turn off Updates.
3. Stop Using App Suggestions from Siri
Previously introduced in iOS 8, this Siri App Suggestion uses your location to find out where you are and what's close. The feature uses that information to determine which apps you might want to use based on where you are.
For example, if you are currently in Japan, you will see suggestions for applications originating from that country. Of course this feature uses extra battery life to always use your location and sync with the App Store.
To turn it off, swipe down from the top of the iPhone screen to open Notification Center, then swipe left to the today view, scroll down and tap Edit. Select the red icon next to Siri App Suggestions. Tap Delete, then tap Done.
4. Use Content Blockers in Safari
One of the best features introduced in iOS 9 is the ability to block ads and track cookies in Safari. The technology used by this ad network is intended to serve, display and track advertisements. However, it consumes excessive battery power.
The amount of battery power saved by blocking ads and cookies is not as important as other battery saving tips. However, along with a slight increase in battery life, the Safari browser runs faster and uses less data.
To block ads, you need to install a third-party Safari content blocker app. To do this, open the App Store and download a content blocking application to your iPhone. For example, the Norton Ad Blocker. However, all ad blocking applications work the same way.
Open the ad blocker application and follow any instructions to set it up. Each app is different, but each offers instructions for you to follow in order to enable ad blocking capabilities. When it's finished installing tap Settings to open the Safari app, click Content Blockers, then swipe On next to any ad blocking apps that you installed.
5. Find Battery Draining App
For those of you who have been using iOS 8 and above, the Battery Usage feature will show you which apps have used the most power for the last 24 hours and the last few days.
To do this, open Settings, click on Battery to check. There may be a note under each item explaining why the app is draining battery and suggesting ways to fix it.
6. Don't Use Live Wallpaper
Most of the smartphone users are more interested in using wallpaper or a more lively screen display. Indeed, it will make the device look more slick. But did you know that this is also a factor in the drain on your iPhone battery?
It is recommended for those of you who want to save battery, sticking with live or animated wallpapers is an easy way to save iPhone battery life.
7. Turn off Auto Upload Photos to iCloud
Every time you upload data, the battery will automatically drain quickly. To avoid this, try to upload manually. Because the photo application can automatically upload pictures to your iCloud account.
Turn off automatic uploads and do uploads only from your computer or when you have a full battery. To check if photos are always uploaded to iCloud, open the Settings app, tap Photos - on older iPhones, tap Photos & Camera, then turn off iCloud Photos or iCloud Photo Library.
8. Turn off the Equalizer
So, have you done the various methods above but are still wasteful of battery? Try to look at this one way. Maybe not many people know that the Equalizer feature also has the potential to drain your iPhone's power.
The Music app on iPhone has an Equalizer feature that adjusts music to increase bass, reduce treble, and other audio enhancements. Because these adjustments are done quickly, they require extra battery power.
Turn off the equalizer to save battery. However, disabling the equalizer provides a slightly modified listening experience. To save battery life on your iPhone by disabling the Equalizer feature, go to Settings and click on Music then tap on EQ and swipe Off.
