Despite the spectacular advancement of technologies on smartphones and iPhone, the rapid discharge of the battery has remained a problem for all manufacturers of mobile devices. Hardly (or not at all) we will find a top smartphone / iPhone whose battery has more than 24 hours in intense use. Most of the time the battery does not last 12 hours if we run games, video content or video editing applications on the iPhone. We are not talking about the weak signal 4G / 3G, which is an energy devourer.
Apple introduced ”Low Power Mode” pe IOS with the purpose of increasing the period of use of iPhone, when The battery reaches 20% to capacity.
The mode can be coupled automatically, to be disconnected when the iPhone is charged and the battery reaches 80% of the capacity. We will know that this condition is active through the yellow battery indicator.
This low battery consumption mode stops some iOS services, in order to save energy. Email pickup (Email fetch), background app refresh, visual effects, automatic downloads and photos updates in iCloud Photos are stopped when "Low Power Mode"It is active.
"Low power mode" can be activated / manually disabled from "Settings” → “Battery"Or from Control Center.
If the overall battery wear is not a good one and it is quickly discharged or if we go to areas where we will not have supply sources, it is good for the energy saving mode to be activated even if we have 100% battery. And not to forget to activate "low power mode" or to disable it by mistake, the best solution is to automate the permanent activation of this mode.
