Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-03 Thread Georgina Joyce
Hello,

Those with battery issues should look under settings / battery. Which will give 
an indication what app is draining their battery. If you allow lots of apps to 
monitor your location these are usually the culprits.

Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-03 Thread Seyoon Choi
I also heard iPhone SE has a very impressive battery life because the A9 
powering the 6S and 6S Plus is what this chip was optimized for. Powering lower 
res 4inch screen and bigger battery inside the SE might make up for this 
reasoning. Though it’s not as good as 6S Plus it’s certainly close. CAn’t beat 
out the logic of physics and the size of battery itself.

I do have an use Facebook, but I have been doing that for a long time, at least 
several months. So I don't think that's it. I also do try to remember to take 
it out of the app switcher, although I have also heard that having apps in the 
app switcher doesn't make a difference. I still try to keep stuff out of there 
when possible.

Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-03 Thread Seyoon Choi
I think it definitely makes a lot of difference for an iPhone 6S Plus or 6 Plus 
users. I got the 6S Plus for several reasons despite it’s size. It seem to 
deliver better speaker quality and most importantly that i want to address in 
this thread, battery. The standby time is what it impressed me the most. I can 
easily get through 2 to even 3 days of battery, and combined with low power 
mode could get me little over 3 days. Though by then I feel a need for a charge 
as the phone usually ends up at around 25% which at this point I do more 
extensive work to drain the battery to 0 and charge it and pretty much repeats 
the cycle. When I owned an iPhone 5S the battery lasted a day and I would 
usually end up at around 50% which I ended up charging because I wasn’t too 
confident about battery life for my day 2. I have portable charger encase the 
battery drains out, though I would think the bigger 6S offers better battery 
life than 5S.

Make sure you do not let your phone get to warm.  Do not leave it out where the 
sun will warm it for example.  Heat is the enemy of your battery.

Also, stuff in the task manager may be actively pinging so it is a good idea to 
clean it out.  For example, if i remove my SIP phone application from the 
switcher power usage decreases measurably.

Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-03 Thread Mary Otten
I would be very happy if I got two days of use out of my battery using it very 
heavily. I guess there are different definitions of what that means. Smile. I 
wouldn't even mind if I got a full day of use out of it without having to top 
it off somewhere. I know I use my phone a lot. Maybe I will try to get up to 
the Mac store and see if they can analyze my battery.

Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-03 Thread Scott
I’m finding that post 9.3 the battery draw is a bit higher than it was.  The 
applications seem to draw pretty well especially Facebook and anything that 
keeps a connection nailed open like a SIP phone or some messaging apps.  
Haven’t noticed a drastic falloff though but definitely a little less battery 
life traded off for faster responsiveness on 9.3.x.

Hi David,

 I find I need to charge mine at night if it's down to under 30% 
But as I'm not on it all day I normally get 2 days out of it before needing a 
real charge,

I also carry an emergency charger with me in case I get in to a situation where 
I'm running on empty,

Apple, and other sources,, state not to run the battery completely down more 
than once per month for recalibration. Doing so too often can damage the 
LI-Polymer battery.

The information on the web tends to agree that the best battery management is 
to run the battery between 30% and 80% for this type of battery. Personally, I 
plug my iPhone in at night and unplug in the morning. Very rarely I will top-up

Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-02 Thread David Chittenden
According to several articles, the FaceBook app uses more battery life than any 
other app when it is open in the app switcher.

Hi,

Have you recently installed any new apps? I installed the facebook app a couple 
of weeks ago and notice that my battery life is much less since installing that 
particular app. It is better when I remember to close the facebook app out of 
my app switcher.

Re: Battery on an iPhone 6s

2016-05-02 Thread Phil Halton
I occasionally run my battery down to zero so that the phone actually shuts 
down from lack of battery. I don't know if this helps but I've heard that this 
helps to reset the battery. Of course after running it down to dark, I put it 
on the charger until it's 100% again. Occasionally I get a weird battery day 
where I run out of battery before expected. But those days are rare and when 
they occur I just close everything out and reboot the phone and it seems to 
clear up.
