How to increase the battery life of a Ipod Touch

How to save battery on a ipod touch

The arrival of our mobile phones for new services and technologies that increase the potential for their use, brings new challenges for the hardware to make seamless user experience as new processors, increased RAM capacity, etc..

But also, we face some complications with the battery of a mobile phone, especially if it is a touchscreen phone, since the interface used, the screen size and graphics power required to draw the highest quality, consumes too much battery.

Therefore, we have taken clear some methods or actions that will enable us to increase the battery life of a ipod touch such as:


Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G

WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity is a service as in notebooks and netbook, require lots of energy power to send and receive data. Another of the functions or services that improve battery consumption, is the search for voice and data networks. In the case of 3G, there are many places that are deficient in 3G coverage and qe whether such networks are disconnected, we will increase the battery life.

The use of data networks has become one of the most used functions on occasion, but keep these services activated when we're not using, you can reach us 25% more autonomy.

Applications for your touch in the background

The number of applications for mobile tactile catalog, make newspaper inaugurated on our phones, increasingly heavy tools as resources are concerned.


If we go to the main phone screen, without having closed the application, they will remain open in the background, so the CPU is still active, so the processor works harder and consumes your battery.

Ipod touch - Screen

Another element which consume more battery power on a touch phone is the screen backlight. Although it is already beginning to install in mobile devices, LED backlit screens, are now a most tactile phones still use a lighting system powerful enough to power we have to distribute between all functions and tasks of our phone.

If we do not activate the screen lock or keyboard, any pressure on the touch screen of a phone can cause it to turn it over long periods of time, thereby causing unnecessary power consumption.


It is therefore very important to lock the phone and touch to get increased battery life on a touch phone.

Following the screen, we found another factor that reduces the autonomy of a touch phone, and is the proper setting of the brightness of it. How has established a brighter screen, more light has to generate the battery.

Thus, in most cases, the standard user by default is usually set the maximum level of brightness touch-screen phone, but need not always leave the same level as in areas with low incidence of light, a touch phone can display an image quality and bright enough to display optimally interface with adjustment of brightness to around 60%.

Regardless of the tricks to increase battery life on a touch phone, there are some portable chargers that store energy for an average load of any mobile device via USB or the like.

Of course, that the level of load or time of autonomy that such shippers to offer, will vary depending on the internal consumption of each device.

You can also avoid unnecessary features for increasing the battery life of ipod touch. If you know it will be a while before cashing out by the phone, not using the camera, or connect to the Internet. Flash photography can drain your battery especially quickly.

Re: How to increase the battery life of a Ipod Touch

New batteries should be fully charged before first use to obtain maximum capacity. Nickel-based batteries should be charged for 16 hours initially and implementation of 2-4 full charge / full discharge cycles, while lithium ion batteries should be charged for about 5-6 hours. Ignore the phone saying that the battery is full - this is normal, but not necessary if the battery is not initialized. # DO NOT fully discharge a lithium-ion! Unlike Ni-Cd batteries, lithium-ion battery life "is reduced every time you download them completely. Instead, the load when the battery meter displays a bar on the left. Lithium batteries, as rechargeable batteries have more than a set amount of chargers in them.

Re: How to increase the battery life of a Ipod Touch

To increase the battery life of a Ipod Touch, always make sure that you keep your iPod close to room temperature. Both high and low temperatures can damage the battery device and can limit performance. Use smaller third-party applications such as games, etc. that do not allow the screen to dim or turn off. This would lead to significant increase in battery backup time.

Re: How to increase the battery life of a Ipod Touch

Applications on iPod touch, such as Mail can be configured to collect data wirelessly at specific intervals. The most frequently e-mail or otherwise is captured, the faster the battery may drain. To obtain new data manually, from the Home screen choose Settings> Data Recovery and tap new manual. To increase the search, go to Settings> Data Recovery and tap new hourly. Note that this is a global setting and applies to all applications that support push services.

You can save power with auto stand-by and back light to low brightness
