12 iPhone Battery Life-Saving Tricks From a Former Apple Employee
Battery life has always been my top concern and the main factor I consider when buying a new iPhone. It’s also an unwarranted fear; I am aware of that. Most of the time, I have at least one charger nearby, and my battery has never died unexpectedly. But that’s also because I suffer from the same battery anxiety as many others.
Then again, the more you use the iPhone, the faster the battery ages. After a few years, you’ll either need a battery replacement or a new phone.
It’s a good idea to know what you can do to save battery life and improve the battery health of your iPhone. A former Apple employee shared 12 battery life tricks on social media.
Tyler Morgan posted a short TikTok clip covering the iPhone battery tricks. At almost 12 million views, the video got plenty of attention, and you can watch it below.
Here are the iPhone battery-saving tricks Morgan lists:
- Do not charge the battery to 100%
- Do not charge overnight
- Charge it to 80% (a feature restricted to the iPhone 15 Pro models)
- Turn off background activity for some apps
- Turn off or limit location services for some apps
- Turn down the screen brightness or set it to automatic
- Turn off Raise to Wake
- Set auto-lock to 1 minute
