The two biggest drains on the iPhone are the Bluetooth radio and WI_FI.. It's easy to tell Siri, turn bluetooth off and she'll say I turned Bluetooth off. Do the same with WI_FI. Those are the two biggest battery drains. So if you have no ear peace connected to Bluetooth and your away from

I agree wi-fi and bluetooth can drain your battery, but I don't think they're the two biggest sources of battery drainage. I think screen brightness would be by far the largest drain on your battery, so that's the first thing I'd recommend lowering. I have auto brightness turned off on my

Hi, If you can't use the phone during the day at work wy not just turn it off(power it off) for the time it is in the locker? Why leave it sitting there doing nothing? Another thing you can do is make sure bluetooth and WIFI are turned off as well if you still want to leave it powered on.

Although I've never seen any noticeable differences, closing all the open apps in the app switcher is suppose to prolong battery life. It is not my intent to start another argument over it does or it doesn't work, I'm only saying I've never noticed a difference in battery life. On the other

When I'm out and about, it's easy enough to have siri turn off WI_FI and Bluetooth. It's easy enough to turn both on again if needed. Even when I get a phone call, I don't need the Bluetooth radio on. It's very easy to have siri turn bluetooth on if I want to make a call and use my ear

Whether closing apps would help save battery drain or not would depend a lot on the app. Apps which have the status of running next to them for example are actually taking up some processor cycles, so would be consuming more power than apps which have no status next to them and are pretty much

You may want to try a factory reset. I know they are a pain and it takes time to put all the apps back, re-sync your content, move apps into folders and so on, but only this way you can be sure you start fresh. If you restore from a backup some problems could be restored as well. It's even a good

A 25% drop in a day sounds normal to me. Clearing the task switcher might help, tons of other options for reducing battery drain, but since you can't use it for all that time, switching it off sounds a good idea too. RobH. - Original Message - From: Joe jsoro...@gmail.com To:
