Save my iPhone battery

We, who use and adore our iPhones, sometimes find that they seem to run out of power before the end of the day. Has that ever happened to you?

Well, this tip will not help you recharge your iPhone battery using some exotic source of energy, like solar power, but it might help you to stretch it a bit.

The other day I was working over by Point Woronzof, you know - down by the airport, and I noticed no cell service - sad, but true.

The iPhone, like many similar devices, always wants to keep in touch, so it will continue to increase its power level as it tries to communicate with AT&T (this action will use a lot of battery power), so I simply put the iPhone into Airplane Mode (which shuts off the WiFi and Cellular transceiver) and voila my battery life was greatly extended.

One must remember to turn off Airplane Mode when one returns to civilization with cell service.

Happy Computing - And if you have any questions about computer, cell phones, etc, be sure to send it to me.
