How do i improve my battery life with iOS7?

SO with 6.1.3 i got about 8hours of wifi usage out of my two year old 4S. Now with iOS7.0 i only have 3-5hours of wifi usage!
At first i only updated my phone, but i already knew that such issues may be caused by updating. That is why i already COMPLETELY restored the 4S and now i don't have anything besides my mail account on it.
But i still only get 3-5hours out of it :/
Why is this and how do i improve it?

Does really NOONE know?
I now restored my 4S, turned oof parallax, system services, location services, background refresh and push.
But it still only get 4hours of wifi usage!
With iOS6 that was not a problem!

Take a look at this to make sure your settings are optimized to the best it can be.
If all else fails, try and restore through iTunes, set up as a new iPhone and manually sync your apps and media back to your iPhone.
If still persists after this, you might call Applecare and see if they can run a battery diagnogstics..

Battery life with ios7 and iPhone 4s steps to make it better...

What steps do we take for improving the battery life of iphone 4s using ios7. My iphone is becoming unusable due to the battery life...I need it to connect with my two sons and it dies in less than a day.

There are quite a lot of threads about battery drain and iOS 7, and a lot of advices on the net basically telling you to disable everything (GPS, notifications, iCloud and so on) or to wipe your device and reinstall everything from scratch ...
Something works, something not, but basically there is a bug in iOS causing most of the iPhones to have battery drain issues.
Last attempt I did is to disable iCloud safari sync, since it seems to send data every few seconds.
Standby time greatly improved, but usage time still ***** (compared to iOS 6).
I really hope for a fix from apple ....

How can I extend my battery life with IOS 7 on my Ipad?

I didn't have this issue when I was using IOS 6. Ever since I upgraded the battery just drains away without me even using it. I've never had this problem before. I even went in and shut off all my apps etc.

When turning off any location or notification services, if you aren't turning it right off completely, be sure to check thru the hidden list and then those off as well. I can't look at which it's in because I did this last night on my iPhone and can't read my phone anymore. It's an eye strain to look into that.
There is a hidden one in location, called favorite places. That's a waste, unless you want it.
Turn wifi off when leaving the house to go to places where there is no wifi. It's constantly searching.
Turn airdrop off as well.
Last night I found really good tips on imore.com site, but I lost the page it was on to copy here. The result is I actually woke up this morning to an almost full battery on my iPhone. I need the list to do my iPad now.

I recently just updated my iPhone 4s to 5.0.1 and I am losing battery life at a faster rate. How do I help my battery life or can I go back to the old system?

How can i extend the battery life of my iphone 4s? when i left it in standby mode when i saw in 5hours it drains to 5%, i thought when i leave the phone the percent is still the same. whant am i goin to do?

I was not aware of the fact one could use ringtones as alarms, this will suffice! Although I foresee some very awkward times as the sound does not stop once I respond to the reminder (it keeps going for good five - ten seconds after I "stop" the reminder), but it's better than missing it altogether!
Thank you very much!
Regarding the Alarmed app, doesn't it have to be running to actually remind you?
-Modular747: I don't know anyone who actually reads the terms of service agreement, those things are usually up to thirty, small print pages full of legal jargon. Rules, I do read - not the legal documents (also they often contradict the laws in my country, but that's a whole different story).
I agree with you - the average customer support consultant mostly cares about keeping his job and earning his salary (don't we all?) and thus racking up completted tasks (i.e. getting rid of customers as fast as possible - in a good mood). The "threat" none the less is real, if a cell phone causes me more trouble than it is worth, I will indeed throw it away (I have done so before) - and recommend a different brand to anyone willing to listen.
Don't get me wrong, I love Apple and I've been faithfully using and recommending their producs for twenty years now, not because of fanboyism, but because they earned it. This calendar issue, however, is like a toaster that doesn't automatically eject the toast at the set time. I see it as a major flaw and after googling around a bit I see that it's been around since at least 2007 (THAT'S SEVEN YEARS!!) so I strongly believe they are aware of this problem by now, but are choosing to ignore it for some mysterious reason and it really ****** me off.
I will send the feedback but based on my observations I suspect the Send button is merely a cleverly disguised Delete button.

If i download CAD software how will it affect my battery life and macbook speed?

If i download CAD software how will it affect my battery life and computer speed?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
CAD software requires the best CPU and GPU performance, so your battery life will be affected while running CAD apps. The same will happen with your computer performance with other apps, so if you do not need any application while using CAD apps, it is better to close them.
However, your battery life and your computer performance will be the same if they are closed. The only exception would be if your MacBook's hard drive is running out of free space

HOW IS YOUR IPHONE 4 BATTERY LIFE ?

HEY EVERYBODY , JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU GUYS WHO ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET YOUR HANDS ON AN IPHONE 4 , HOW IS YOUR DEVICES BATTERY LIFE? IS ANYONE CHANGING THERE SETTINGS ? JUST TO GET SOME IMPUT FROM OTHER PEOPLE. I GET WITH MEDIUM USAGE , ABOUT CLOSE TO TWO DAYS TILL I HAVE TO CHARGE IT.....
Joey

I've noticed much better battery life with my ip4. After taking it off the charger on July 7 at 4:30 am, right now I'm at 4 hours, 46 minutes of usage and 30 hours of standby time and still have 52% of my battery left.
I don't need push so I leave that off, blue tooth is off until I need it, 3g on all the time, wi-fi on at home, I tend to close out any apps on my multi-tasking bar. Over night I didn't have it on the charger (just want to see how long I can go on a single charge with the new phone) and lost only 3% of the battery which from what I've read on these forums is normal.
I'm very pleasantly surprised by the stellar battey on this phone. I didn't really think I had battery issues with my 3gs either but the difference is quite obvious. With the 3gs, less usage and fewer hours of standy time (by the end of the day-10 pm, for example) had me at 30-40% of battery life left.
I'm quite happy with the new phone

HT1414 Is iOS 6.0.1 Killing anyone's battery life. No change other than installing iOS 6.1 today...now I cannot get 5 hours of battery life with everything disabled!!!

This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

Just like it had nevr been damaged; fully dischagre and charge monthly, minimize battery drain so you minimize charge/dischare cycles.

IPhone 3gs Battery life with 3.1 firmware

Any news regarding battery life with firmware 3.1???? I have lost at a minimum 25% after upgrading from 3.0.1 to 3.1. Have reset....the device alone and with iTunes....Need help...

I originally posted this in the wrong discussion...
Since upgrading to 3.1, it looks like the biggest battery drain is due to using PUSH with my Exchange email. I can turn off PUSH, use FETCH (even over 30 minute polling intervals) and battery life is close to 24 hours on a charge. Turning on PUSH, but not using it for email (other than my .Mac account (MobileMe), decreases the life by a couple of hours, still well beyond the normal 10 hour work day.
Turning PUSH on for 3 Exchange folders (Inbox and 2 sub folders) results in a drastic reduction in battery life. It can use over 50% charge while on standby... over a 3 hour period. I've managed this to an acceptable (8-12 hours, depending on phone calls) by limiting using Exchange rules to keep most important email to the Inbox and one sub-folder (I may eventually leave all important stuff to the Inbox) and move other stuff into different folders that I can still check on occasion.
Other PUSH activities, using apps like BeejiveIM, AP News, MLB.com, i.TV and even .Mac don't seem to affect the phones battery life too badly.
I'm wondering if Exchange w/PUSH is doing too much, besides listening for new mail and alerting on it. Could the process be simplified to only listen, alert, and mayby increment the count (not downloading headers or message bodies until one actually checks for messages... the iPhone still polls once you open a mail folder anyway).

How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7

How to disable airplay mirroring on iPad with ios7?

I've had this problem ever since I was at my friend's house- she has Apple TV- and my iPad connected automatically. So, I have no idea why any of the practical solutions that people think of are not options BUT, in terms of just getting it done, I did figure out a way. The key for me was getting near another Apple TV. I was out of town so I took my iPad to another friend's house who also has TV. Once I was logged onto their wireless network (the same network that their Apple TV is on-- that's how it connected in the first place), then the Airplay icon and options showed up from the bottom-draw menu and I was able to make sure that mirroring was turned off from the Apple TV section and to make sure the selection was on iPad instead. Problem solved. Now whether or not this will stay the same (rather than me having to make sure it stays at this setting everytime I link up to a network that has an Apple TV on it) I don't know. So my advice is find someone with Apple TV and connect to their network with your iPad and then change it.

How to expand battery life with iOS5 on iPhone 3GS, it's shorter than before?

I upgraded to iOS 5 and since then the battery doesn't seem to last that long any more. Are there any settings I could change to improve that?

Just as a heads up -- I've been out all day for the last two days with my 3G without recharging, and I still have a half-full charge at the end of the day with bluetooth on (though not paired all the time) with Wi-Fi on, and with three or four hours of internet and music usage a day. I don't fetch data, but have it set to check e-mail every 15 minutes. And it has been on 3G the entire time...it doesn't run down as fast as some people might think -- in fact, it is a lot longer battery life than any other 3G phone I have owned from ATT.

Also you may want to check a few things if you have location service turned on for Weather app, cuz every time you check your notification center, it will always check your location for the current update on the weather. If you are in the same location the entire time, you really don't need that on. Also while you are on the location service setting, check some of the apps that uses location service and if you don't use it, then turn it off while you are in there. Also maybe turn them all off and then turn on one at a time and find the culprit.
If it's not your location service, it could be that one your apps is running in the background. Double click home button, this will bring up the recently used tray, hold one of the app for 3 seconds until the - button comes out, then close all the apps. Or just do a hard reset of your iphone by holding the power button and the home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.
Anything that will require to data connection will use battery. If you have wi-fi at home, then I suggest you keep it on wi-fi because your iphone will last longer if it's on wi-fi then on battery.
If none of the above suggestion worked, then I suggest you try restoring your phone and set it up as new and see what happens. Just make sure you have a separate back up for your contacts.
