Disable Background App Refresh to Save Battery
Background App Refresh lets apps run in the background in order to fetch content for you. That way, you’ll get the most recent content as soon as it’s available.
Even though this sounds cool, not every app needs to use this feature. Plus, managing Background App Refresh will help you improve your battery life.
- Open the Settings app.
- Scroll down and tap on General.
- Select Background App Refresh.
- Tap on Background App Refresh.
- Select Off.
This will disable Background App Refresh completely, but you can also disable this feature for each individual app to customize it however you want.
