Why does my battery life decrease fast?
I have an Iphone5c and my battery life is decreasing really fast. After 30 minutes I'm up to 20%. Do I have to adjust things to my setting or what?
Take it in to get the battery replaced before your warranty runs out.
1. Are you properly charging your phone? Do not leave it charging over night it is really bad for the battery. (google more about this)
2. Do not charge it until it needs to be charged! Charging it too many times like that can dramatically decrease battery life (once in awhile is fine for situations)
3. Double tap the home button and close your apps (slide the app preview up to close)
4. Disable Wi-Fi when you are not using it! Wi-Fi drains battery life very fast and if you have a unlimited data plan leave it off.
Hope this helps
