These Battery-Saving Features

Want your iPhone’s battery to last longer? There are likely several features you may be missing that could help your device save some battery life throughout the day. They include Background App Refresh and Mail settings.

You’ll want to head to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and disable this for most of your apps. It isn’t that useful for most apps, and you’ll be able to tell pretty quickly if you should switch it back on for some.

If you use the default Mail app, you’ll probably want to set Fetch New Data to a longer interval, like 15 minutes or more. Just pull the screen down in the Settings app to open the search bar, then type Fetch New Data.
