THE place where you live might be partly to blame for your bad iPhone battery life.
Apple has revealed how your location is just one of the many ways your iPhone charge can suffer.

If you have poor cell coverage, your iOS device will experience higher battery drain.
The harder your iPhone has to work to find good signal, the more your battery will suffer.
So if you live, work or spend a lot of time somewhere where you rely on a bad or intermittent cell signal, it can affect your battery life.
You can even check to see if you’ve received an official warning from Apple.
If you go into Settings > Battery, you’ll be able to see how your battery performs.
And you may see the message: “No Cell Coverage and Low Signal.”
“This indicates either that you are in a poor cell coverage area and your iOS device is searching for a better signal,” Apple explained in an official memo on battery life.
“Or that you’ve used your device in low-signal conditions, which has affected your battery life.”
Thankfully there’s hope for people who live in a bad-signal area.
If you don’t need cell signal at any point, you should switch on to Airplane Mode.
That way, your iPhone won’t constantly be scrambling to find a good signal.
“You can optimize your battery life by turning on Airplane mode,” Apple explained.
“Open Control Center and tap the Airplane mode icon. Note that you cannot make or receive calls while in Airplane mode.”
It’s also important that you try to stay connected to a good Wi-Fi network as often as you can.
Remember: fast-draining battery life isn’t just a day-to-day issue.
The faster your iPhone drains and requires re-charging, the quicker the battery will degrade.
Eventually, your iPhone will hold less charge – further hurting your battery life.
So if you want to hang on to your iPhone for a long time, it’s better to try to slow down your battery drain where possible.
