Have you been closing your background apps to save battery? You don’t have to. |
AN Apple
executive has dismissed one of the longstanding myths about the iPhone’s
battery life.
IPhone users, desperate to extend
the battery life of their phone, have long believed that closing the background
apps was the best way.
But now Apple’s senior vice
president for software engineering, Craig Federighi, has confirmed it is not
true.
A member at 9to5mac.com, emailed
Apple’s CEO Tim Cook to ask if quitting apps was necessary for battery life.
Instead, he received a response
from Federighi who said it was not necessary.
Other suggested ways to save
battery is to adjust the brightness of your screen, setting your iPhone’s email
fetch to ‘manual’, and set your iPhone to ‘aeroplane mode’ when not needed.
