Can you turn off apps that you've opened so the battery lasts longer?

With the new upgrade to 7.0.2 can you turn off apps you've opened so the battery lasts longer?

Two things:
In iOS 7 to close apps now you double click the Home button, then slide up on the cards for the apps you'd like to close.
Next, to actually deal with the battery use issue and open apps, you can go to Settings>General>Background App Refresh and turn off the apps you don't care to have working behind the scenes.

  • How can I turn off apps that automatically sync?

    Whenever I try to move music from itunes to my ipad mini it says it is over memory.  I can see the music on the ipad but it is grey and will not play.  I have tried to delete apps (which are taking up most of my memory) I do not want but it keeps putting them back on.  I have turned off the 'sync automatically' button on the preferences and devices in itunes.  I have unclicked the 'will install' on the apps section on itunes.  I have synced repeatidly and whenever I click the sync button the things I have just clicked on suddenly become 'will install' again. 
    I only want to move some music across from itunes but it won't even let me do that. 
    PLEASE HELP I AM GOING CRAZY!!

    Yes i did that, but when i went back to my home screen all the applications that i've choose to not using data just automatically activate themselves.... ><

    Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1
    I just tried this on my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.0). I did an iTunes Store search for "Mickey Mouse"...
    After the search result:
    1. Panned over to "Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1"
    2. Tapped the icon
    3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    At this point nothing happened no matter how many times I tapped the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    I then:
    1. Tapped the Search button at the top left which took me back to the initial search results.
    2. Tapped on "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Vol.1" (a totally different title)
    3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    Then I was presented with the options dialog which includes "Gift"
    I then went back to:
    1. "Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1"
    2. Tapped the icon
    3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
    At this point, I was now presented with the options dialog which includes "Gift"
    So in my case, going through the motions with a -different title-, then going back to  "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Vol.1" fixed it for me.

  • Iphone 5 battery drains rapidly, I have turned off apps and location even purchased a new battery, is anyone else having this problem?

    Iphone 5 battery drains rapidly, I have turned off apps and location even purchased a new battery, is anyone else having this problem? If anyone knows how to fix please let me know. I've tried the hard reset and nothing works.

    There was a run of bad batteries for the iPhone 5. Apple will replace them if your phone qualifies and you haven't tried to fix it yourself. See: iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program - Apple Support. Unfortunately, you may have disqualified yourself if you tried to repair it yourself.
    However, rapid battery drain is only rarely caused by a bad battery. A bad battery is usually diagnosed by a battery percentage that jumps randomly. See this for advice: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain

  • HT1726 i have heard that charging less than 80 percent will make the battery lasts longer, does anybody have any idea about that?

    hi,
    i have heard that charging less than 80 percent will make the battery lasts longer, does anybody have any idea about that to help me?

    I don't know where you heard that statement but it's completely incorrect.
    According to Apple:
    Use Your iPad Regularly
    For proper reporting of the battery’s state of charge, be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
    Elsewhere, Apple elaborates and explains that two half-discharges (or four quarter-discharges, etc.) equals one full discharge.

  • Can You Turn Off App Store in 10.6.6?

    Before I install the 10.6.6 update, I'd be interested to know if the App Store feature of OS 10.6.6 can be turned off, similar to how the iTunes Store can be turned off in iTunes. Also, does it connect to the App Store automatically upon startup, and if so, is there an option to prevent that? My experience is that the more the OS and apps add functions that automatically do things that aren't necessary for the current task, the more they tend to slow the machine down over time.
    Editorial aside: I find it annoying that computers and phones are being turned into shopping catalogues. Shopping apps are convenient, sure, but I don't care for an OS that has features solely designed to sell things to me. I want my OS to be an OS, not a "store." I'd rather use my browser for shopping.

    You can just not use it, or drag it to the trash if you really hate it.

  • How do you turn off apps in ios 7 to save battery?

    in old OS, you could turn off apps to save battery. how do you do it in new OS7?

    To close out apps, simply double click the home button and instead of holding down the app icons and clicking on the X mark in older versions, you have to swipe the app window up and away.
    Also you can save on battery by turning of background app refresh from settings, as explained in this article .... http://nyacomputing.com/how-to-close-apps-in-ios-7-and-save-on-battery/
