iPhone Batteries
Use Low Power Mode! This may seem like an obvious change to make, but it really can improve your iPhone’s battery life now (and over the long run).
- You can find Low Power Mode in your iPhone’s Settings, within the Battery section.
- You can also find Low Power Mode in your iPhone’s Control Center.
When Low Power Mode is on, your iPhone will switch to a power-saving mode that automatically adjusts a bunch of different settings to save battery life, including screen brightness and app usage (like Mail fetching).
Your iPhone may automatically suggest that you turn on Low Power Mode when you reach 20% battery life. But you should get used to plugging your iPhone in before your battery drops to 20%.
iPhone batteries struggle to charge from a depleted state, so use the Low Power Mode prompt to train yourself to charge around that time (or before, preferably). This simple feature can help you extend your iPhone’s battery life between charges, as well as its overall lifespan.
