The iPhone 6s is an excellent smartphone like most of the other Apple's flagship devices. It comes with some great features and some good reviews -- but it's not perfect. iPhone 6s users go on complaining about abnormal battery shutdown. Luckily, there are ways to get it fixed; sadly, it's going to be messy.
Many Ways To Fix IPhone 6s Bad Battery Life
According to GottaBe Mobile, if a new update has just been installed on the iPhone 6s, users should wait two days before doing any drastic altering in the phone's settings. Using "Low Power Mode" is also beneficial if battery is out on 10 to 20 percent. Limiting "Background App Refresh" and shutting off "Location Services' may also be useful. Like "Location Services" and "Background Refresh," the iPhone 6s' push feature for notifications may affect battery life.
If the iPhone 6s user is in a bad service area, the phone is going to work extra hard to find signal and this could kill the battery. It is, therefore better to turn off the "Cellular Data" off or use the "Airplane Mode." Moreover, it is easy to blame Apple or iOS for battery life troubles but sometimes, it's an app or apps that's causing the drain. Using a lot of apps can suck up a battery's life. The iPhone's screen can eat up battery as well if not properly managed.
Furthermore, the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus come with sensors that power the auto-brightness feature. While this can be helpful, it sometimes fails to work properly, depleting the life of the battery. Manually adjusting the "Retina Display" is one way of maximizing the troubled battery. Restarting the smartphone could be a smart move, too. This simple fix can do wonders for the battery.
Battery Replacement Is Free If The IPhone 6s Is Eligible
If all of these fixes are done and nothing's worked, the user may try to downgrade to the previous versions of iOS if the downgrade is available. And if, still, nothing's worked, then restoring from backup is the last thing to do before heading to the nearest Apple Store and have a battery replacement. Those iPhone 6s units produced in September and October 2015 are eligible to avail the official iPhone battery repair program, according to BGR.
