Check three iPhone settings today – don’t take a chance by ignoring them

IPHONE is full of useful settings to get the most out of your device.

But some are more important than others.

Getting them right can save battery, data – and even money.

Check these ones on your iPhone now.

Roaming

Roaming is what you need to stay connected when you’re abroad.

But it’s costly.

Especially as most networks no longer allow you to roam in EU countries for free since Brexit.

So if you’ve got roaming on by accident or forget it, best to turn it off.

Otherwise, the next time you get off a flight you could be stung by an extra bill.

Open Settings on your iPhone, then Mobile Data.

Tap Mobile Data Options and switch the Data Roaming option off.

Low Power Mode

Low Power Mode is a great way to save battery.

It forces apps to do less stuff in the background so you have more power to get through the day.

To turn it on, just go to Settings and find Battery.

Now switch on the Low Power Mode option.

Background App Refresh

You can stop apps from refreshing in the background to save battery as well.

But it can also spare you data.

Either prevent all apps from doing it, or select individual ones of your choice.

To do it, go to Settings, then General.

Find Background App Refresh.

Tap Background App Refresh again.

Here you can choose between Off, Wi-Fi or Wi-Fi & Mobile Data.

On the previous screen, you can tick any specific apps you want to target – or leave them all so it applies universally.
