Usually, after purchasing the phone once we configure it, because we think it necessary, and never go in the settings. This scenario is familiar to most of us. This is not entirely correct, because with time, everything changes. Applications request positioning, we are literally bombarded with push notifications and you'll start to notice that the battery life is reduced. To avoid such situations, it is sometimes necessary to check some settings. Which of them, I'll tell you below.
Check your privacy settings
If you, like me, always agree with all the demands of applications, over time it can cygrat with you a cruel joke and affect the battery life time. iPhone sufficiently protected and no irreparable ills not have done the application, but it is desirable to consciously give those applications, or other authority.
Well, let's open settings and pass section privacy. Here are concentrated information about the services of geolocation, contacts, calendars and more. When you click on a specific item, you'll see the applications that request access to that information. It should go to each of them, to make sure that applications use exactly the features you want.
Most of them are pretty obvious. For example, if you open Contacts, You will see every application that has access to your address book. The same goes for calendars, memos, photos, and everything else. Most important of all, it is certainly a geolocation service, as they use for their work GPS, which in turn is very voracious in terms of battery life. But in reality, geolocation service really need two or three of all your applications. Google Maps, Maps without in any way, but Facebook and Twitter will do very well.
Check the push-notification settings
As is known, push-notifications are not only annoying, they are simply a battery killer. If you have never carried out an audit of applications that send notifications to you - it's time to do it. Even if you've done this procedure once, anyway, you'll be surprised at the number of applications that are out there. At home I found an application 51, of which 13 games and 26 applications that do not need a push. Only 12 applications really need the notice. And this despite the fact that I have very little installed on the iPhone application (63sht).
go to settingsIn section notification center and scrolls down to the section "Include". For the desired application, click on the application bar to change the appearance of the notification of their appearance on the screen closed and playing sounds. All other better away from here, to do this, click "Change" and methodically drag unnecessary applications from the list "Include" - the list "Do not turn on". I have to tinker order, but it's worth it.
Check the applications that use the background update
If you are using iOS 7 (which I doubt), it makes sense to follow this advice and check which of your applications run in the background. When the application runs in the background, they are very serious battery optimizations. For example, if you listen to podcasts, then the app will download in the background of new issues; social networking applications will update your tape, and if you use a pedometer, it will track your movement, even when the app is not open. This feature is very useful for some applications, but it is superfluous for others. A striking example: the application for online banking from my bank wants to use the Background App Refresh. I need it?
Check how much space you are using the installed applications
Applications themselves occupy a lot of space, especially for gaming. But not only toys devour your disk space - applications that use different service data, they are not too far behind. For example, it may be the same podcasts, if you are an active user and listen to more than five channels - the old editions will be in the memory dead weight. This applies to the cache iMessage, Twitter other applications using your own library for storing service data.
Check which of the applications suffers excessive use of disk space very easily. open the settings — main — Statistics, Wait until the index the data and see what's what. The most severe applications will be top of the list and then in descending order. Unfortunately, clear application data can not be (if this feature is not provided by the developer), so the only solution is to remove the app and download it again.

Doing these simple guidelines, you will not take a lot of time, and their effect can be quite noticeable. Spending 10-15 minutes, you will return your device to the original shape and is likely to increase battery life. Most users do not like to dig in the settings of their devices, if everything works. But you will be surprised to find how many applications are trying to send you a notification, use GPS, Background App Refresh or store a large amount of debris on the drive.
All that is necessary to put an immediate end and now you know how to do it!
