Mail uses my iPhone battery 6

I have an iPhone 6 with 9.2 running on it.  When I finally upgraded, I continued request to enter my iCloud password settings.  I think that I have fixed (somehow), but now my battery runs completely in 12 hours.  The info on my phone says that my e-mail program uses 81% of my battery, especially with the background activity.  I basically do not use my phone to check my emails, except very occasionally if I'm away from home.  I turned it off iCloud mail now, but the phone is still losing power.  Any ideas?  Oh - and I have my setting to manually extract any message.  Thank you-

Hi Nancy,.

The resources below provides a few additional ways to save battery life on your iPhone.  Try these options.

On the use of the battery on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

Check the battery usage

Go to settings > battery.

To see how long each app has been opened and the screen and running in the background, press on . Under each app, you might see these usage types:

  • Background activity means that your battery is used while the applications running in the background.
  • Audio means that apps to read audio data when running in the background.
  • No cell phone coverage and the weak Signal means that your device is looking for a signal or used with a weak signal.
  • Backup restore & indicates that your device has been backup on iCloud or restore from a backup to iCloud.
  • Rental and leasing of background means that your battery has been used in the follow-up of your device.

Settings to improve the battery life

As you watch your battery usage, you could get a suggestion as activate the auto brightness or brightness adjustment. This is because iOS has determined that the change of these parameters might improve your battery life. You can also see use since last full charge times.

Use the low power Mode

If you wish to extend your battery life, turn the low-power mode. This reduces power consumption until you turn it off or charge your iPhone at 80%. When low power mode is enabled, certain parameters and features like fetch mail, Hey Siri, background App update, and some visual effects are reduced or turned off.

To enable or disable the low power Mode, tap Settings > battery.

Your iPhone will last longer before that you need to load, but some features may take more time to update or complete. Some tasks may not work until you disable the low-power Mode, or until you charge your iPhone at 80% or more. After that you charge your iPhone at 80% or more, Low Power Mode turns off automatically.

Low power mode reduces or disables these features:

  • Email extraction
  • Hey, Siri
  • Background app refresh
  • Automatic downloads
  • Associations of Wi - Fi
  • Some Visual effects

When low power Mode is turned on, the battery in the status bar will be yellow. You will see and load as a percentage.

Low Power Mode is available only on iPhone.

  • I use my iPhone 6 very often to my office for phone calls.  This will help overall battery life to stay connected as I have all these phone calls?

    I use my iPhone 6 very often to my office for phone calls.  This is my work phone.

    This will help life battery together if I keep the phone plugged in my phone calls?

    Thank you

    SUSE, you can use it while connected and in this way when you unplug to get somewhere, you know you will have a fully updated beautiful upgraded battery.

    Just don't leave it plugged constantly all the time — weeks or months.  A battery lithium needs periodically some running through it.  But certainly leave it plugged during the day of the company while using it, or even just for long calls will do no harm.

    Battery life is determined by the cycles, so if this reduces the rate of your phone through equivalent full charge and discharge cycles it can not hurt self-help (depending on how you use it, it cannot help battery life much either, but it probably won't hurt it).

  • The new iPhone may use the iPhone accessories 5s as case and battery materials?

    The specifications indicate that they have the same size. If there is a small difference in the placement of ports and controls that interfere with some cases probably will definitely be confirmed until the launch.

  • iPhone battery use issues - new

    Since the upgrade to 9.2.1 (I skipped a few versions to go straight to this version) the consumption of the battery exploded in the sky?

    My battery is only about 6 months only, but barely lasts the day now, even after be left on the charger all night.

    When I get home it is about to die, so that I have charge for 1 to 1.5 hours (100%), then I need to put it on the charger again before going to bed, otherwise he'll be dead in the morning when I wake up.

    I noticed the new 'Battery' feature, when the message stating to "Low Power" mode when you get to 20% or less.

    When I look at the statistics of battery, I see that Siri uses the most powe and just below Siri is a line that indicates: weak Signal.

    I disabled Siri (but), but Siri always uses the most power and the low message Signal always shows?

    Hello whyisitsotom,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    I understand that the battery on your iPhone life is not as long as you expect, and when we look under settings > battery to see what applications or services use the battery of your iPhone, you see a notification that says weak Signal below Siri.

    To ensure that your iPhone is to give you the longest possible battery life, I suggest you read on the article which contains information about optimizing your settings.

  • Mail application drains the battery on the iphone 6 (iOS 9.2)

    Hello

    Since the 9.2 update my apple mail app drains the battery really fast. It has 3 accounts (outlook, apple, imap) and tried to extract emails not to push but did not help. When I check in the menu of the battery in the last mail 24 hours with 2 min on screen + 2 min backgroud used 17% (this is equivalent to Facebook 28 min 45 min phone used only 9% or + 22 min back). I tried other email applications, but for me, this one is pretty good and does not want to use another app for something I already have. Is there any solution for this or should I wait for an update of the software?

    Thank you

    Have you tried force reboot the phone by holding down the button sleep and home for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo comes back again?

    You won't lose data, but it can cure some problems after installing new software.

    For some users, deleting the mail account and adding back once the phone reboots worked, especially when you use an exchange account.

  • iPhone battery draining fast

    My iPhone of 6 battery go down 1% all ~ 15 seconds. After 67% it as abandoned and goes up to 20%. At first, I thought it was the beta, so I restored it to the last public update (10.0.2) I restored my iPhone 2 times now and my battery still drains like crazy. I don't think it's a battery problem because it turns off whenever it wants. I noticed something weird however. Whenever I try to reset soft, a deformed glitchy screen opens before he died. Whenever I do this it changes color (red, gray, green). Please help because it is impossible to use my iPhone for more than 3 hours.

    Hello mannycavs123,

    Thank you to raise your iPhone battery here questions in Apple Support communities. I understand how it is important to have the power and portability. I'll be more than happy to offer some things for you to check.

    The first thing we want to make sure that all of your data on your device is safe. You can have a backup, but please do a recent experience before you start troubleshooting. You can perform a backup in iCloud or iTunes using this article: the backup of your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Once you know that your data is safe, I recommend that you check two things that can help extend your battery life. Is first called Wi - Fi help. When you encounter low signal strength time when you are connected to a wireless network, this feature allows your device jumping to the cellular signal so that your data will not be interrupted. With the switching signal, you will use more data, and depending on your cellular signal, it can also use more autonomy. This Help article talks about WiFi help: Help on Wi - Fi. I am personally in a great wireless signal box almost everyday, so I have this setting disabled. It can help to increase the autonomy of the battery you want to do.

    The second recommendation, I can offer is to disable any applications using cell phone that you should absolutely not. This Help article discusses this: on the cellular data settings and usage on your iPhone / iPad. For example, I do not personally that I've never used the compass. Disable this access to cell data. Because he needs to send and receive data to keep the data when you open it, this will use the cellular data more. A signal, or whatever it is using cellular data more cost more autonomy. The best part of this is, if I'm in an area without wireless and suddenly need my compass, I can go back to these settings and turn it back on. This is why I personally most of these applications disabled except things like phone, mail, Messages, cards, and everything I need to use on a daily basis, even if I go to a wireless network. This can also increase your battery life.

    In addition, you can take a look at what applications use the most out of your battery and adjust its use accordingly.  Take a look at this link for more information:

    On the use of the battery on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Thanks again for checking out Apple Support communities and have a great rest of your day.

  • The use of the battery has increased since the update to ios 10. Also, why can not disable the voice command. It's the most boring on the new update.

    The use of the battery has increased since the update to ios 10. Also, why can not disable the voice command. It's the most boring on the new update.

    Depending on what you mean by "voice command", either:

    Settings / general / accessibility / VoiceOver / OFF, or

    Settings / Siri / OFF

    As for your use of the battery, you can check what app pulls most of its use in the settings / battery.  A new version of the app is sometimes problematic, not necessarily iOS or iPhone.  If you see a unusual % of use of a particular application, or force-to leave it removal/reinstalling it or remove it until an update comes.  If anything seems unusual, it might be a problematic installation of iOS, in which case, you could backup your iPhone and restore it:

  • iPhone battery 5 vs 7

    My iPhone 5 is almost unusable with 4 years of regular use. I heard the iPhone battery 7 isn't great, but how it rates compared to the iPhone 5?

    Of the iPhone 5 - technical specifications:

    • Talk time: up to 8 hours on 3G
    • Standby time: up to 225 hours
    • Internet use: up to 8 hours on 3G, up to 8 hours the LTE, up to 10 hours on Wi - Fi
    • Video playback: up to 10 hours
    • Audio playback: up to 40 hours

    From http://www.apple.com/iphone-7/specs/:

    • (Wireless) of talk time: up to 14 hours on 3G
    • Standby time: up to 10 days
    • Internet use: up to 12 hours on 3G, up to 12 hours, LTE, up to 14 hours on Wi - Fi
    • Wireless video playback: up to 13 hours
    • Wireless audio playback: up to 40 hours

    7 has much improved the battery life on the 5. Also your current phone battery has degraded over time, because it's natural for the batteries, so you will definitely see a significant improvement.
