I have found that my battery life is horrible if I have say 10 apps open and I am using IOS 7. I generally close them all down each morning before I leave for work, yesterday I did not even think of it as I had not really used the phone much on Saturday and by 11 in the morning I was at 70% received two messages, replied to one of them with only one word. No phone calls,. When I got home I looked and every store app I have was open along with Bard and a couple of others. I closed them all out, and hopefully today it won't plummet so much. I am still on my 4S, contract is up but .

In iOS7 especially, Apple manages everything so you never need to close apps manually unless you need to restart a specific app. Generally, you can leave your App Switcher alone and things will work fine. I never clear out apps, unless I know one is going to suck down battery and I don't need it, and my iPhone never locks on me. Try the restart and let us know if that fixes the problem.

If I put your iPad is not obeying the auto-lock setting is quite strange, and might be fixed by a reset. This won't harm any of your apps or app data, by the way. Having too many apps open shouldn't make your iPad just lock like that.

The suggestion to make sure that not too many apps are running at the same time seems helpful. From checking various other sites, it seems that this sometimes happens with the iphone and ipad and since my ipad is very recently purchased, it does not seem to be enough of a defect to exchange the unit.

If you have enough vision to see it, you are just waiting until the iPad starts to boot (when the Apple logo appears); once that happens, release the two buttons.

My battery level is pretty high. It just happened this morning and my battery level is 82 percent. Michelle -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.
