Tech Experts Agree: This Is The Best iPhone Setting To Turn Off If You Want To Preserve Battery Life

Let’s talk about what your iPhone battery isn’t doing lately: holding a charge. If your phone is struggling to maintain its charge for longer than a few hours, it may be time to make a few simple changes that can result in a better overall iPhone experience. Where to start? Tech Expert Rahul Vij, CEO of WebSpero Solutions, is just one of many experts who say there’s one specific setting you should change if your iPhone is always dying.

The Low Power Mode setting on your phone is there to be your friend — but many iPhone users aren’t even aware of what it can do and how it can save your device from prematurely losing its charge.

“The one setting you should change if your iPhone is always dying is to keep it on Low Power Mode when your battery is low,” Vij says. “Then it will help your battery to last longer. The iPhone will use the battery for its necessary functioning and help you save it from switching off. By doing so, unnecessary notifications, visual and graphic effects, live wallpapers, any backups running in the background are paused, screen brightness is decreased, and automatic system updates and downloads are held back. The advantage of Low Power Mode is that it automatically turns off when the battery is charged to 80%.”
