Apps that drain the life out of your iPhone and iPad battery ...

Sometimes it seems like someone is overhearing the 'question of the week' that I am being asked by clients.

The below article appeared in The Age today, talking about apps that drain your battery and including the below 'top five tips for reducing your IOS batter drain'.  

It is not about quitting the apps that appear in your multi-tasking bar.  One key change to make is to stop certain apps from performing something called 'Background App Refresh'.  Go to Setting -> General -> Background App, and switch 'battery hogging apps' to 'Off'.  But be careful to not turn off apps that need to refresh in background in order to give you up-to-date information.

If this is all double-dutch, but you need some help to sort out your battery issues, iTea&Coffee can help.  Call 1300 885 420.
Intermittent app behaviour is exhausting your smartphone
Top five tips to reduce your iOS battery drain (overthought.org):
- Disable location and background app refresh for Facebook and apps you don't care about
- Don't quit your apps in multi-tasking
- Disable push email. Check your email manually.
- Disable push notifications for apps that annoy you.
- Enable airplane mode in areas of poor cellular service.
