Here's 10 Ways to Fix It | iPhoneLife.com\"><\/picture><\/p>\n<p>Location Service is another sneaky way your iPhone could be leaking battery power. Lots of different apps want to know and use your location for various reasons, but most of them don\u2019t need to track your location when you aren\u2019t using the app. Yet some apps have the option to always know your location, regardless of whether you\u2019re currently using it or not. Now you might want to leave it that way for, say, a navigation app. But most apps don\u2019t need Location Services on all the time. You can easily go through your apps and choose whether they can use your location Always, Only While Using the App, or Never. If the app never needs your location, feel free to select that. For most apps, it makes the most sense to allow Location Services only while using the app; to do this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Open Settings.<\/li>\n<li>Tap Privacy.<\/li>\n<li>Tap Location Services.<\/li>\n<li>Select individual apps to choose when Location Services can be used.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If the app never needs to know your location to be fully functional, go ahead and select Never.<\/p>\n<h2>Leave iPhone Facing Down<\/h2>\n<p>When your iPhone is facing up, the screen illuminates whenever you receive a notification. And if you receive a lot of notifications, they could easily be part of your battery problem. Especially since notifications in iOS 10 are rich, meaning you can see conversations, images, and more directly from Lock screen. Doing so might mean you\u2019re actually on your iPhone more by virtue of being able to do so much without unlocking the device. Stop yourself from being tempted to reply each time a notification appears by <strong>leaving your iPhone face down<\/strong> on your desk or side table. <strong>Doing this will preserve battery life since your iPhone won\u2019t light up when you receive a notification<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>To Make it Last: Turn on Low Power Mode<\/h2>\n<p><picture data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_1x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8254.PNG?itok=cm_I6ZgB 1x, https:\/\/cdn.iphonelife.com\/sites\/iphonelife.com\/files\/styles\/screenshot_smaller_breakpoints_theme_newmango_mobile_2x\/public\/styles\/top_image\/public\/IMG_8254.PNG?itok=d-R5FP1Z 2x\" media=\"(min-width: 0px)\"><\/source><img decoding=\"async\" data-picture-mapping=\"screenshot_smaller\" src=\"http:\/\/demo6.aiwalls.com\/ipapps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/iOS-11-Draining-Your-iPhone-Battery-Life-Heres-10-Ways-to-Fix-It-iPhoneLife.com_-7.png\" title=\"\" alt=\"iOS 11 Draining Your iPhone Battery Life?
