Over the years, Apple has improved the battery life of the iPhone. Modern iPhones can last you about a day or even more (based on your usage). That said, battery life and battery health don't stay the same over time. There may be situations when you want your iPhone to last longer. Maybe you're outdoors and want to make sure to squeeze the last drop of juice, or you want to prevent abnormal battery charging on your iPhone. Whatever your reason, there are some tips and tricks on how to save iPhone battery life that when combined can make a huge difference. If you've recently purchased a new iPhone, you should know these tips to maintain the battery health of your iPhone in the long run.

One of the most useful tips for saving battery on your iPhone is to make sure you only use Apple-certified chargers and cables. Although the markets are full of tons of chargers that can power your iPhone, not all of them are certified by Apple. This means they are not good enough for your iPhone's battery health. Also, low quality power adapters and cables can cause slow or no charging issues on your iPhone. To avoid complications, you should only use Apple-branded or certified charging accessories. When choosing third-party options, look for MFi-certified chargers from trusted global brands.

Low Power Mode is one of the best ways to extend the battery life of an iPhone. It's a life-saving feature that helps you squeeze out more battery life when your iPhone is low on power and you want it to stay alive as long as it can. That said, there are some trade-offs. Low Power mode disables or limits certain features such as AirDrop, background app refresh, automatic iCloud uploads, email retrieval, and more. You can do basic things like make calls, send messages, emails and more.

Do you know that dark mode can help you save battery on iPhones with an OLED display? On an OLED screen, each pixel lights up individually to create an image. Also, displays use more power to emit brighter colors, rather than darker ones. When you switch to dark mode, an OLED screen turns off pixels that display a black color, so they don't consume any power. This eventually extends the battery life of your iPhone.
