I've read numerous articles that Facebook sucks the life out of batteries. My wife deleted the Facebook app on her phone and the battery doesn't drain as fast now. Go to Settings - Battery and scroll down to see which app is using the most battery power. FYI we both have iPhone 6 and running strong. Also you can have one of the local repair shops put in a new battery - that's a lot less than a new phone and I can think of a lot better things to do with several hundred dollars than buying a new phone. bens197, MattF and Shankster 3 Quote Left Hand orientation SIM 2 D Max with Fujikura Air Speeder Shaft Cobra Radspeed 3W/RIptide Shaft 410 Hybrids 22*, 26* Cobra Speed Zone 6-GP/Recoil ESX 460 F3 Shafts SM7 54* Wedge Glide 3.0 60* Wedge O Works putter V3 NX9-HD - 4 Wheel EZGO TXT 48v cart - too many shoes to list and so many to buy And BAG Boy Golf Balls: Vice Pro Plus 2020 Official Tester Beginning Driver Speed - 78 2019 Official Tester 410 Driver 2018 Official Tester C300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
