Q: Would a modern iPod Touch or iPad do this? i ask as most don't have 3g or 4g coms too, so would then not be able to do Siri once networking was off. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Paganelli" <alanandsuza...@earthlink.net> To: <viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Sunday, February 09, 2014 5:29 PM Subject: Re: battery drainage
The two biggest drains on the iPhone are the Bluetooth radio and WI_FI.. It's easy to tell Siri, turn bluetooth off and she'll say I turned Bluetooth off. Do the same with WI_FI. Those are the two biggest battery drains. So if you have no ear peace connected to Bluetooth and your away from your home network, you don't need the WI_FI either. And, it can quickly be turned back on again when need be.
