Extend The Battery Life On Your Iphone

I love my Iphone, It’s fast and does all that I require of it and much more. The only drawback is that it is notorious for sucking the life out of your battery. Over the years I’ve found great ways to save my battery life especially when I was far away from a power cord or the car charger.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    TURN DOWN SCREEN BRIGHTNESS

    This is a no brainer; by turning down the backlight you can save roughly 50% of the battery life.

  2. Step 2

    TURN OFF YOUR WI-FI

    When your Iphone is constantly looking for a Wi-Fi its CPU is eating up valuable battery life. If you are getting 3g access or edge access then turn off the Wi-Fi on your Iphone.

  3. Step 3

    AUTO-LOCK

    You can set your Iphone to auto-lock every min when your phone is idle. Basically the auto-lock feature puts your phone to sleep saving precious battery life especially when you forget to turn your phone off and suddenly realize you need it.

  4. Step 4

    PURCHASE A BATTERY PACK

    Sometimes the standard battery pack just will not do it. If you are going on long trips where managing your Iphone usage is not enough, you should consider buying a battery pack.
