A simpler solution is to allow applications to track location only when it is active or open. As soon as the application is cleared or withdrawal is done, location services for that certain application must be disabled.

For this, you may have to adjust the settings for each application individually. Go to:

• Settings
• Privacy
• Location Services
• Chose the settings you want for each application individually.

Use Dark Mode

Dark Mode is an emerging feature in the Apple line-up, not so advanced but aesthetic. The Dark Mode reduces the iPhone 13 Battery life, as it only consumes the battery when brighter colors are in production.

• Going to Settings
• Battery
• Battery Health
• Optimized Battery Charging.

Disable Background App Refresh

• Going to Settings
• General
• Background App Refresh
• In these settings, you can toggle the feature to enable or disable it.
• Choose the applications you’d like to use the Background App Refresh and disable it for the other applications.

Lower the brightness on your iPhone 13 Pro

The iPhone 13 Pro OLED Display is much more powerful and therefore consumes a lot of battery. As in the dark mode, the lower brightness can help reserve the iPhone 13 Pro Battery throughout the day. Even in normal conditions if the brightness is lowered to 40% on the iPhone 13 Pro OLED Display it is more than enough to use. Screen brightness can either be set to automatic or lowered from the Control Center.

Turn off Message Effects and Video Previews

Routine users usually don’t keep the message effects enabled on their Ios devices but if it is enabled by default, it should be turned off. If you are not familiar with what Message Effects are, it’s simply a graphical representation of a text message received on your iPhone consuming the iPhone 13 Pro Battery. Another feature that isn’t much help is the Auto Play videos when scrolling through applications. You can turn both these features off and save your iPhone 13 Pro Battery life. Both these options can be disabled from settings > Motion.
