One of my few frustrations with my new iPhone was battery life – it seemed I had to charge my phone every day. So, I googled to see if I could find some tips on how to increase my iPhone batter life.

I implemented the following recommendations, and it has made a difference in my battery life – I even went a little over two days without charging on one occasion…
Disable WiFi & Bluetooth when not needed -
Disable unnecessary sounds (i.e. audio keyboard clicks)
-
Enable Auto-Brightness (note: uses the camera to automatically adjust the screen’s brightness)
-
Store the iPhone at room temperature & do not expose it to direct sunlight (exposure to heat causes damage to lithium-ion batteries due to intense ionization)
-
Turn off location services when not needed
-
Turn off EQ (equalizer setting for song playback)
