To increase battery life for iPhone, you should perform these actions

If you don't know, starting with iOS 13, Apple has added a new feature to extend battery life and limit overheating when charging the phone overnight. This is to reduce "stress" load and reduce charging time. In addition, the researchers recommend that users only charge up to 80% to extend the battery life.

However, you should not be too dependent on Apple's battery life boost feature, but adjust some settings yourself to improve the battery life for iPhone, they are quite simple as follows.

Use dark background mode

Considered the most expected feature on iOS 13, Dark Mode is a trend and is widely applied by many companies, from Apple to Google and Microsoft. Almost anything can be switched to dark mode, which helps reduce eye strain and save power (for devices using OLED screens).

Considered one of the quite convenient features on iOS, but turning on this repeated screen will affect the battery life of the device.

Turn off the "Refresh background apps" feature

To turn off background application refresh, select Settings> General settings> Refresh background apps.

Disable location using services

Other small suggestions

- If almost no Bluetooth is used then turn it off.

- If you only use Wi-Fi, you should turn off cellular network connections (Mobile data).

- Dim the screen to increase battery life. You can lower the default screen brightness based on your preference or turn on Auto Brightness to allow the screen to adjust the brightness based on current lighting conditions.

- Apple advises users to experience at least one charging cycle per month (charge the battery to 100% and then completely run out of battery). So if you haven't done it yet, this might be a good time to do that.
