How to rescue your iPhone battery after the iOS 11 update 2017 Guide

If you’re having the same problem, there are a few easy fixes knocking about. Here’s what you can do to save your iPhone battery.
1. Turn off Auto-Brightness


You’ll find this in Settings > General > Accessibility > Display Accommodations. When you update, this will automatically be switched on, using up battery life by adjusting automatically to your brightness levels, so you’ll have to turn it off manually.

3. Turn off AssistiveTouch


This feature is hidden in Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch and is designed for people who have difficulty touching the screen. It’ll be automatically switched on, but you should turn it off if you don’t need it.

4. Change your email update schedule





If you get lots of emails and they’re constantly being pushed to your phone, your battery is going to suffer, whatever version of iOS you’re using. You can give it some slack by heading to Settings > Accounts > Fetch New Data. Here you can change your email update schedule from push to ‘fetch’, which basically means your phone will check for new emails only as often as you tell it to, lowering the amount of battery it expends updating itself. You can change it to every 15 minutes, every 30, hourly or ‘manual’.If you accidentally deleted or lost videos on iPhone, first please check on the Recently Deleted folder. Alternatively, you can use the professional tool Gihosoft iPhone Recovery to recover deleted iPhone videos from Camera Roll or some apps.



5. Use Low Power mode


This is something of a last resort, but it will prevent your phone from using data in the background – a bit like Airplane mode. Find it in the ‘Battery’ section of Settings.
