How To Increase The Battery Life of Your iOS 7 iDevice
1 / Location Services:
These options to disable are in Settings> Privacy> Location Services. Start by disabling localization for applications where it is not needed. Then at the bottom of the page go to System Service.
If you want to save battery, turn off all options except Wi-Fi network (as in the picture above). If you use Maps to locate you, then do not disable Traffic.
Here’s in detail the role of each option:
Traffic: Use geolocation only when using the Maps app
Diagnosis and use: If you agreed to help Apple during the installation of iOS 7.
Compass Stallion: Use Geolocation Only When You Use the Compass
Automatic time zone: Change time zones automatically.
iAds by location: so that the ad is targeted according to where you find it. If you disable it, the ad will still be present, but will not be targeted.
Popular nearby: local popular places nearby
Mobile network search: Uses geolocation when the device needs to search for a network. To go faster.
Wi-Fi network: When you turn on Wi-Fi, your device uses GPS to easily find Wi-Fi terminals
Frequent Places: this function allows you to say when you are outside, how long it will take you to go home.
2 / The automatic update of the applications:
The update of the applications is now automatic. The system will check once every 24 hours that they are up to date. For those who do not want to bother to manually update each time their apps, keep the option enabled, for others go to Settings> iTunes Store and App Store then disable the option. You have the choice between music, apps, books and / or just updates.

3 / Automatic update of the content of applications in multitasking:
One of the big news of iOS 7 is the possibility for developers to be able to offer their applications the ability to perform certain actions in the background such as updating the weather automatically for example. Some of them will be more greedy than the others, and therefore will consume the battery.
It is possible to cut this option or to sort the applications that have access to it. To do this, go to Settings> General> Refresh in the background .
On our side we have disabled the function which we do not seem necessarily useful.
4 / A classic: lower the brightness of the screen:
Basic but effective: the brighter the screen, the more energy it consumes. No need to adjust it to the maximum. You can also choose the automatic adjustment so that the brightness adapts to where you are.
To adjust the brightness, go to Settings and Wallpapers and brightness.
5 / Spotlight search:
Whenever you add content (apps, contacts, messages, etc.), search Safari or receive a new email, iOS indexes the content so you can find it with the search function. If you do not use this function for only certain elements, sort. And if you do not use it at all, think about unchecking everything.
To change the option, go to Settings> General> Spotlight Search
