Because all the task that you are running on the phone and apps

On your iPhone 4S, do you keep the apps on? If you do, all you need to do is double tap on the home button and then you will see all the apps you have used appear on the bottom part of your screen. Hold down on those apps until a minus sign show up on the top left of each app. Click on each app and each app and it will turn it off.

  • Why does the YouTube app drain my iPhone battery quickly? When I first got the app, the battery just depleted normally for itself and it was fine. But now it's just getting worse. I even have low-power mode on, Wi-Fi, etc. And still whenever I'm watching YouTube videos, the battery just drains really quick. Has anyone else had this problem? Could it be something else, or does the sound normally take a lot of battery? Is there anything I can do with my phone so that the battery lasts longer? By the way, I have an iPhone 6s.
  • Why does my iPhone battery drain so quickly? I have had an iPhone 4s for almost 2 years. The phone has slowed down a lot since that time and the battery is drained extremely quikly, even when I'm not doing anything. If I just listen to music for 40 mins, doing nothing else, with a locked screen, my battery will go down 20%. It's insane. I never overcharge my phone. I charge it to 100% before I go to sleep and when I wake up its around 96% @ WB, No, even with everything closed it, the battery still leaks.
  • Why does my iPhone battery die so quickly? I had my iPhone for about a year and a half, and recently I've noticed that the battery is draining incredibly fast. I've always had it on 3g internet/Wi-Fi and the battery never died this fast so I don't know what the exact problem is. I charged it to 100% yesterday and I only used it for maybe about 10 minutes and left it untouched for the rest of the night. Today when I woke up the phone was dead. I haven't changed the settings or anything fyi.
  • Why does my iPhone 5s battery drain so quickly? I would charge my phone till 100% and stop charging for at least 6 hours. It's on airplane mode and the Wi-Fi isn't on, but after 6 hours without using, the battery becomes 7%. My battery skips the %, from 100%, within 10 minutes of usage, it drops till 25%. Do I need to replace a new battery? Any tips to prevent this from happening after I change the battery?
