How to Increase iPad's Battery Life?
iPad seems to have already won the hearts, as per the sales figures and initial user reviews they are loving it. But as the display on iPad is quite large so the battery drains out very fast. So, here are some tips for you to increase iPad's battery life.
Turn off Wi-Fi
You could turn off iPad's Wi-Fi feature if you aren't using it to increase your iPad's battery life. Go to Settings, select Wi-Fi and turn it off.
Don't expose iPad to high or low temperature
If the iPad is exposed to high or low temperatures, its battery could be harmed and it causes decrease in battery life. So you should be careful about that. It should be OK between 32 degrees F and 95 degree F.
Update the Firmware
Whenever there is a new update of your iPad's firmware is available, you should update it. Apple might be bringing new features in the firmware which could increase your iPad's battery life.
Customize Brightness
The iPad offers you with a very high brightness option which would make it even display anything while you are in bright light or else in a total low power area. You could increase your iPad's battery life greatly by lowering the brightness. Go to Settings -> Brightness & Wallpaper and lower it by dragging the slider to the left.
Disable Push Notifications
The Push Notifications are used to make you aware mainly of of your iPad updates. But turning it off could save and improve some battery life. So to disable it, go to "Settings" and turn the "Push Notifications" feature off.
Disable sounds
Go to Settings > General > Sounds. You will find five different options to Increase/Decrease or switch to On/Off based on your personal choice, though disabling all of these would decrease the battery usage.
Disable Location Services
I am not telling you to always keep the location services off, but just when you are not in need of it or when your iPad’s battery is low. To disable it, go to Settings -> General and turn the Location Services off.
Turn off Push Mail
If you are receiving emails frequently, it could affect your iPad’s battery life. So turning off Push Mail will do it. Go to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Fetch New Data and turn Push off.
Turn off Equalizer
The Equalizer feature in your iPad automatically adjusts the sound. But this could decrease your iPad's battery life. So you could turn it off to increase iPad's battery life.
Turn on Auto Lock
Turn on the Auto Lock feature so that whenever the iPad is inactive, it automatically turns off after a certain time interval.
