The first thing that comes to mind when it comes to tablets and smartphones autonomy after the update - Power Saving mode. Nevertheless, we have collected another 11 ways to improve battery life on iOS gadgets 9.
Power Saving mode
I deliberately started with the most obvious, but one of the most effective ways to extend your iPhone performance. This option is only available for smartphones and automatically performs all of the actions that users always done on their own to save a few minutes of a low battery.
Speech about disabling some of the visual effects and animations, automatic downloads, updates in the background. Tips to keep switched on immediately after being fully charged, if the day is busy and handy charging may not be.
Find the hungry applications
In iOS 8 there was a useful section with statistics battery consumption applications. With update this section made even clearer by adding a switch that displays statistics based on the time of operation.
The scheme is simple: click on the icon with the clock, find the most voracious of the program and stop using them when the charge level drops to a critical level.
Carefully go over the applications using geolocation
In the "Location Services" you can find a lot of interesting things. For example, what you set dictionary or Facebook-client constantly use your location data.
Turn off access to geolocation those applications, which is obviously not necessary, as a last resort - Leave the option "When you use the program."
Turn off Bluetooth
Basically Bluetooth consumes almost no battery, but, like any wireless communication protocol, it is constantly looking for devices to pair.
Council suggests itself: turn it on only when needed.
Conduct an audit of widgets
Widgets - certainly a useful option curtain notifications. Nevertheless, it is this section are often clogged with unnecessary additions of applications that can use the geolocation data, or update content in the background, consuming power.
Leave the necessary widgets, remove the excess, and your smartphone will live for at least half an hour longer.
Turn off automatic updates of applications
To-date information every time you open a particular application - a valuable feature iOS. Nevertheless, it requires an Internet connection, and it is automatically converted into tens of minutes of battery life to your gadget, especially in the use of mobile communication.
Turning off without hesitation, in the section "Updating content."
The abundance of animation needlessly consumes battery
Parallax, which adds depth wallpaper, zoom effect each time you open folders and applications - all this creates a wah effect in the first week of iOS use.
Believe me, included the option "Decrease traffic" will not make iOS less attractive, but it will save battery power.
Walk section "Universal Access" in settings
"Shades of Gray" - hardcore users who are trying to increase the time and are willing to put up with a black-and-white interface.
"Increasing the contrast" - where you can remove the transparency and reduce the white point in order to reduce the intensity of bright colors.
"Vibration" - turn off the slider, if you live very well with conventional melodies and notification sounds.
Turn off auto-updates
In iOS 7 users eliminate the need to constantly monitor section with updates App Store - all new items downloaded automatically in the background.
I need not remind you that it affects autonomy.
Reduce the brightness
I personally know people who have the brightness of smartphones, tablets and laptops are always unscrewed to the maximum. Such profligacy burns the eyes in the dark and consumes battery resources.
Check the settings on your device and, if necessary, reduce the brightness to the optimum - you can always change it in the curtain quick settings.
Discard the "living pictures" as your wallpaper
First, it applies only to the owners of the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, secondly, in the battery consumption of the difference compared to conventional wallpaper is not so significant. Nevertheless combined milliseconds to seconds and minutes, and it may spend several percent of the charge. Unplug in cases of extreme necessity.
Cut 3D Touch will also save a few minutes of work
You have to be a complete idiot to offer a key to disable the function of the new iPhone, but when it comes to emergencies - keep that in mind.
