Everyone wants their iPhone battery to last longer. The good news is, Apple has been steadily improving battery life, and an iPhone made within the last couple of years has some of the best battery life of any mobile phone.
The bad news is, it seems like that's never enough, and your battery life gets shorter as your iPhone ages. There are a million ways to save battery life (fave.co/3ZSciwy) on your iPhone. Nearly every feature uses some energy, and you could spend all day in Settings turning things off to squeeze out a few more minutes.
But a lot of the iPhone battery-saving tips from yesteryear just don't apply anymore. The efficiency of many different features and functions have gotten good enough that turning them off has an almost negligible impact on how long your iPhone will run on a single charge. It's not worth turning off Bluetooth, for example, just to make your battery last a few minutes longer.
With that in mind, here are four tips that actually will have a noticeable impact on your iPhone's battery life. If you really feel like you need to make a single charge last longer, this is where you should start.
HOW TO CHECK YOUR BATTERY USAGE
Before you start changing anything, you should check on your battery's health and usage.
Open the Settings app, then tap Battery. After a moment, your personal usage stats will populate the screen and you'll be able to see your app use and charging history. This screen will give you an overview of how often you run down your battery, your average screen active and idle time, and a list of the apps that are draining your battery the most. You'll see the last 24 hours by default, but it's a good idea to look at battery drain over the last 10 days too, since it helps show the systemic drainers rather than an app you just happened to use a lot.
