There are a number of tips with which you can extend your battery life. The easiest way is to turn on power saving, but there are other ways to save battery.
For example, you can disable apps that refresh in the background. If you don’t close the apps, they will continue to update in the background. Apps collect data and this consumes a lot of battery especially if you have multiple apps open. In the settings you can easily choose which apps to update and not update in the background.
You can do this by going to “General” in “Settings”. Here choose “Background Refresh”, there you can then choose which apps to refresh in the background. You also have the option to disable “Background Refresh” completely, so you turn off the feature for all apps at once. This way you can use the battery a little longer!
