Ok...I'm still a little iPhone illiterate. How do I do that?

Overall the battery in my 6+ lasts MUCH longer than my HTC ever did.


Settings -> Privacy

You can choose the apps you want to leave on (I have it one for 3 and off for all the rest).

Echoing the other threads of discussion, my Sprint contract is up 11/1 and I'm going AT&T with a regular iPhone 6 (the 6S is too big for my taste and doesn't fit well into my pockets).

I've noticed that off-brand charging cords with the 5S seem to have brown spots on the contact points and if you flip the charging plug over it seems to help the phone charge...I sit in a concrete bunker at my office so mine is plugged in and charging all day long...plus I run bluetooth to a small speaker on my desk for podcast listening.

Wow you have a 6s already they are not even set to release until Sept 25 of this year. If you do not like it I would sell that thing on Ebay if I was you and make a ton!!

Way, way south.
One way to increase your battery life on an iPhone is to double click the round "home" button and then the various background programs that are running will show up as "tiles" that you slide to the top to turn them off. You may be surprised by the number of programs running in the background after you think you've exited from them.

You are here
better way is to have turn it off during working hours added benefit is to be able to get some work done (or fool around on BOL)

Oh, duh...yes...too many acronyms and abbreviations. Sprint has 6 and 6-plus. *puts himself in timeout for not thinking before posting*
