Have you ever tried this?
One of the most common methods iPhone users employ in an effort to save the battery on their iPhone doesn’t actually work, according to a high-ranking Apple official. If you’re an iPhone user, chances are you’ve quit all of the apps in your multitasking feature in an effort to save battery life; it would seem to make perfect sense in fairness.
According to Craig Federighi, Apple’s senior vice president of Software Engineering, it doesn’t work at all and though he was a little light on details, he was fairly upfront in his opinion on the matter.
Federighi provided a response to an email sent by a reader of influential Apple website 9to5Mac to Apple Ceo Tim Cook inquiring whether he quits his multitasking apps as a method of preserving battery life.
Cook didn’t respond, but Federighi did (the e-mail below has been verified by 9to5Mac) with a blunt but unambiguous response.
That’s us told.
