How To Save Battery On Your iPhone SE (2024)

The iPhone SE (2020) definitely rocked the world when it was launched this year. Its appearance might be outdated and below par by today’s standards, however, that does not change the fact that it possesses brilliant and modern-day internals at its affordable price.

Sadly, its small body is home to a small battery, and with the intense A13 processor it comes with, the battery life leaves a lot to be desired. However, considering the kind of users the iPhone SE (2020) is aimed at, this should not be a serious problem.

The fact is that with less intense use and without serious gaming or media consumption, the smartphone should still last for 24 hours. Just make sure you charge it frequently, avoid trips without a power bank, and stay away from all kinds of battery-draining activities if you need the phone on for a long time. To further help your battery to serve you for as long a possible, see How To Save Battery On Your iPhone SE (2020):

How Can I Save Battery On My iPhone SE (2020)?

1. Use Low Power Mode Always:

Rather than tinkering with your iPhone battery settings, simply activate “Low Power” and that should do the trick.

This mode reduces your auto sleep time, decreases the frequency of notification retrieves, reduces the display’s brightness, and also throttles the processor to make sure it does not drain too much energy. All of this will definitely extend your iPhone’s battery life.

Your iOS device will even prompt you to activate Low Power Mode when its battery hits 20%. However, it can be done manually at the start of the day, even when it is still at 100%.

2. Identify Location Hogs:

We all know that location pinpointing can affect your phone’s battery life. Therefore, if you do not wish to use any application that requires location tagging, head to Settings > Privacy > Location Services and toggle it off.

This will deactivate the iPhone’s GPS and all kinds of location-based tracking until you reactivate it.

3. Silence Annoying Notifications Or Deactivate Screen Light-up:

As you already know, whenever a notification pops up, your screen lights up, and your device might vibrate or produce a sound. The fact is that all of this has a way of affecting your battery, so they should be avoided.

To preserve your battery, simply head to Settings > Notifications and deactivate the applications you do not want notifications for. Or, if you need to hear a sound when a fresh message comes in, but you don’t want your screen to light up every now and then, simply deactivate the Lock Screen option on your chat applications.

By so doing, a notification sound will be heard anytime you receive a new notification, but its message will not be visible on your lock screen, meaning the screen will not come alive for those excessive spam emails. Surely, this could be time-consuming if you use several apps, but it definitely helps.

That is that.
