10 bad habits iPhone users should give up
Every iPhone user understands the joy of having one, even more if it’s new. The phone is sleek and bold and exhibits technological excellence. Unfortunately, many fail to avoid bad habits that may ruin it quickly. As there were more than 225 million iPhone users last year, many poor smartphone habits inadvertently became bad iPhone habits. Besides, some avoidable practices are exclusive to iPhone users. Therefore, here are some habits iPhone users should evade:
Neglecting battery health
iPhones have a phenomenally long battery life, so many users take their devices for granted. Many iPhone users go through multiple charge cycles during the day. Such practices tend to reduce the device’s longevity. Many users also ignore a critical ‘Low Power Mode,’ a battery-saving feature that gives them time to get to a power outlet so that their phone does not die completely.
Finally, a common habit is allowing the battery to run out of juice entirely before plugging it into a power outlet. Doing so repeatedly can damage any phone’s batteries in the long run.
Running outdated software
Opting for regular iOS updates is necessary as every update brings new bug fixes, performance improvements, and new software features to an iPhone. Despite these benefits, many iPhone users run outdated software or routinely ignore updates on their devices. Such users leave their phones vulnerable to poor performance, inadequate data security, and a drastically reduced battery life. Moreover, many iOS apps only work on the updated version of the operating system, so ignoring updates can cause many iPhone applications to work sub-optimally.
Avoiding such problems is incredibly easy: users just need to click on “install updates” on the regular patch updates that their iPhones come up with now and then.
Enabling apps to track all user activity
At a basic level, all apps need endless user data to sustain and develop themselves.
