Re: battery drain while listening to nls books

2020-06-17 Thread Barbara Stahl
If you notice significant battery drain, you can try putting the phone in low 
power mode while listening. You can do this through settings or with seri by 
asking seri to turn on low power mode. You can turn it off again by telling 
seri to turn off low power mode. 
I have done this with apps like I heart radio which is a major battery drainer. 
the difference in battery drainage was immediately noticeable.  So you could 
try this method.

Re: battery drain while listening to nls books

2020-06-17 Thread Wayne Merritt
I haven't noticed any significant battery drain when listening to BARD
books. I usually play the book in the app with the phone unlocked.
I've got Bluetooth on and use other apps that use more battery power
than the BARD Mobile app. I would agree with Richard if you notice a
huge drain in battery. Another idea is to see how many apps you are
running in the App Switcher, and if any of those use GPS and/or the
camera. If so, close them, and you should see your battery use go back
to normal.

RE: battery drain while listening to nls books

2020-06-17 Thread Richard Turner
I have no problem with battery drain because I press the side switch or power 
button and let it play in the background, which is the suggested approach for 
any audio if you don’t want the battery to drain.
You can get 6 or 8 times the battery life if you are listening while the phone 
is locked.
If BARD stops playing when you lock the screen, check the BARD app settings 
under audio settings and make sure play in background is on.
If it is and it still stops, toggle it off and on and reboot the phone and all 
should be well.

   Hi all. Many people on this list have talked about listening 
!NLS or bookshare  books. I’m wondering if you experience high battery drain 
and if so, how do you deal with it. I’m guessing that carrying a backup battery 
is the best solution, but I wonder if there are battery saving tips that I’m
