Lithium-ion batteries are used in the iPhone and all other Apple devices. They are preferred over traditional batteries because they charge faster, last longer, and weigh less. However, the capacity of all lithium-ion batteries diminishes with time. You've come to the correct spot if you have an old iPhone with a worn-out battery or a new one that doesn't last as long as you planned. Issues with iOS battery life can be caused by issues that Apple has to solve in software, such as excessive GPS usage, system-intensive apps, games, and so on. Battery life issues caused by bugs can't be fixed until Apple publishes an update, but there are actions you can do to optimise iPhone battery life and decrease hidden causes of excessive drain.
Enhanced Battery Charging
This extends the life of the battery and so improves its condition. Optimized Battery Charging informs your iPhone about your charging schedule, allowing it to wait until you need it to charge more than 80%. It use machine learning to learn your daily charging patterns and estimate when your iPhone will need to be charged for an extended length of time, charging appropriately.
Turn on Optimized Battery Charging to keep your iPhone battery healthy for longer. The following are the measures to take:
- Launch the Settings app.
- Scroll to the bottom and choose Battery.
Select "Battery Health."
Allow for optimal battery charging.
Use the Dark Mode.
Dark Mode can increase iPhone battery life by 30%. Using dark mode for an extended amount of time lessens the stress on the iPhone battery, boosting performance. The dark mode is not only beneficial for your iPhone battery, but it is also healthy for your eyes. Dark mode can preserve battery life on smartphones with an OLED screen, such as the iPhone X, XS, XS Max series, iPhone 11, and iPhone 12. Because each pixel generates a separate light, pixels that show black do not glow. It does light up at all, thus it is worthwhile to turn it on. The following are the measures to take:
- Launch the Settings app.
- Choose "Display and Brightness."
- Select the "Dark" option.
Location Providers
Another approach to increase iPhone battery life is to change the location service settings. (This can also help to cut down on cellular data usage.) Checking your location settings to prevent apps from seeing your location is a good idea for privacy reasons, but it can also help with battery life. Here's how to get to your location services settings:
- Launch the Settings app.
- Choose Privacy.
Navigate to Location Services (to update privileges for your apps).
Each app has four possible location settings, though the four options aren't always available to each app depending on what it's doing.
Take note of apps that suggest "always use your location" and change it to "when using," "ask next time," or "never."
Many applications will request location information that you don't actually need for them to function, thus eliminating it here assures that no programme gets your location without your specific consent. You may also entirely disable location services, although most users will generally avoid doing so because it may conflict with programmes like Maps.
- Launch the Settings app.
- Choose General.
- Launch the Settings app.
- Scroll to the bottom and choose Battery.
- Launch the Settings app.
- Choose Privacy.
