Airplane Mode worked really well in iOS 6 for battery preservation. I would get out of my office in the afternoons and still have something like 98% of the battery remaining. So, the 25% drop is somethihng of a shock. Thanks for the article. I've already tried those recommendations except for Air Drop. I must not have that ability with the 4S, because I can't find that setting in Control Center. If nothing else works, I'll just turn off the phone altogether.

The first thing I would ask is do you need to have your iPhone switched on at all, if you are away from it? However,, that level of drainage is going to be a problem when you do need to have it switched on. You have already, for example, switched off push notifications. However, there are zillions of other things you probably don't need to be switched on. One thing that some people don't realise when they move to IOS7 is that if you are in an app and hit the home button, it doesn't shut that app down. If you hit home twice to look at your app switcher, you may find that there are apps running that you don't realise are active, but are nevertheless sitting there draining your battery. If you google iPhone battery drainage you will come up with loads of articles on this subject. This is just one of them:- http://www.ibtimes.com/apple-ios-7-release-15-ways-improve-battery-life-your -iphone-or-ipad-1413218 Best Adrienne -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
