Happy new year — I know I’m like two weeks late, but I’ve been busy with personal projects (including building a robot). In this video, I’m going through 10+ iPhone settings you can change to get better battery life on iOS 26 (but most of these apply on other iOS versions too). I show you exactly where each setting lives, and I focus on stuff that actually makes sense for real life: background app refresh, Siri suggestions, “Hey Siri,” keyboard/system haptics, adaptive power mode, Wi‑Fi vs cellular, Bluetooth (and the right way to truly turn it off), location services, dark mode/black wallpapers for OLED iPhones, always‑on display tweaks, low power mode, and brightness/auto‑brightness. At the end, I also break down battery life vs battery health, how to check your maximum capacity and cycle count, and why a phone can feel slower once battery health drops (especially under 80%). I used to obsess over battery health, but honestly it’s not that deep—just use your phone. If you do want to be a bit nicer to your battery, I cover charge limits (the whole 20–80 idea), and why heat is the real enemy—especially with wireless charging unless you’ve got something that keeps temps down.
