A list of apps will be displayed. Tap the apps that do not need to get location information very often.



Make sure your app uses your location at the right time.

◆ 2: Bluetooth
As with location information, tap 'Bluetooth' from privacy.



In iOS 13, if there is an app that recently requested Bluetooth, the app name will be displayed here. There is no problem with apps that use Bluetooth accessing Bluetooth, but if an app that does not use Bluetooth is accessing Bluetooth, setting it to not access will save a little battery.

background apps that are not in use in the foreground may communicate and acquire data. With this feature, the app will automatically receive data and content, but it can also drain your battery.

There are two main types of methods for smartphones to acquire data such as new mail, '

push ' and ' fetch '. Retrieving data with a push that always waits for new data allows you to receive new emails and messages immediately, but also consumes more battery power. Using fetches that receive data at regular intervals can save battery power.

To do this, tap 'Passwords and accounts' from the Settings app ...



Tap 'Data acquisition method'.

Next, switch the 'Appearance mode' to 'Dark'.



The appearance of the dark mode looks like this.

Since Wi-Fi consumes less power than mobile communication, aggressive use of Wi-Fi at home or at work can save battery capacity as well as communication capacity.

Airplane mode is a mode in which radio waves are not emitted from the terminal. Underground or in places far away from the base station, the terminal frequently searches for the base station in an attempt to secure communication, and the battery drains significantly. Therefore, if you know that communication is not possible anyway, it is recommended that you switch to airplane mode.

to restart your iPhone .

If you are using an iPhone 6, 7, or 8, press and hold the side button to display the power off slider.
