I would do a video for this but they’re already several out there so I’m going to link to a few below. This gist of this post is to make you aware of one of the reasons your iPhone battery dies so quickly. iPhone Battery life is determined by the amount of charge available along with the amount of processing(work) your iPhone is doing. Every time you open an App your iPhone loads that app into memory. You processing will spike while it loads the App and then level off and drop down while the App is idle. Most people press the home button and begin using other Apps which effectively throws the App into the background. Throwing the App into background doesn’t mean its closed so that App remains in memory. Although its not actively processing the CPU is still active because it has to maintain the state of that App while processing currently running Apps. Over time if you don’t close Apps they build up in the background increasing the amount of memory used and eventually start slowing down your iPhone as it tries to maintain the state of all your Apps. Keeping Apps in the background saves you time in loading and takes less processing power if you plan to go back to them but if not you’re wasting memory and increasing your battery usage maintaining an App that you’re not using actively. To help you save your battery life and speed up you iPhone, below I’ve shared 2 videos on how to close Apps on iPhone 7 as well as a video on how to remove your Apps from memory if you have lots of Apps running in the background. You should also note when you read or go through instructions and it says to close the App this would be how you would accomplish that task.
