Not sure if something has changed since you uploaded this video but I can’t seem to get the “Ultimate battery saver” shortcut to work.
I even added it to my control center but when I click on it it shows “loading” briefly in the dynamic island and then crashes.

Isn't it redundant because low power mode automatically turns off always on display and auto sets to autolock to 30 seconds?

Hey Stephen, love the video but keep in mind (for safety) “Talk to Siri” is critical for CarPlay to work and listen to our commands. I use Siri in CarPlay a lot, and I’m sure many users with more up-to-date vehicles use it too. Love your videos.

🎙️ Try Riverside today, it's what I use to record all my podcasts!
12:51 when I bought my 13 mini, for like a month, I wasn’t closing my apps. But I learned that most third party apps close after a couple of hours and when you open them, they are going to launch again “from the start”. It may be because it’s an older iPhone, but now, I close apps that I know I am not going to use again for at least two days, and keep open apps, that I use daily.

Few days back I had this weird issue. 3 months old iPhone 16 Pro Max begun draining battery like crazy despite all these tips, from 40% for 24 hours to like 200% (I had to charge twice a day without any intense usage). In the end I had to back up my phone to the Mac erase it and restore it from the backup.

00:00 Introduction
00:20 Display Auto Lock
Hey! Is it possible to set an automation such a way that when I log my mindfulness on Apple watch at the end of the day based on what I’ve logged a playlist open on Spotify? Like each of my mood will hv a different playlist
01:21 Hey, Dingus
01:55 Key Notification Setting
Hi Stephen, please guide me. When I click your shortcut link, it takes me to icloud and there is a button "get shortcut". When I click that button it takes me to app store.
02:34 Always-On Display
02:56 Display Brightness
Great video. But there is one thing to point out at 16:56 you gave a url to set the auto lock to 30 seconds you don't need that as low power mode in iPhone automatically sets the auto lock to 30 seconds
04:17 Bad Cellular Coverage
05:40 Focus Modes Can Help!

12:51 DON’T Swipe Your Apps
Great video. However, I strongly encourage you to change the thumbnail of your video. While your tips help to prevent sudden battery loss, there is no way to “gain back battery.” It is standard for iPhone (lithium ion) batteries to degrade overtime, and the tips you provided will help but as batteries degrade, they lose their ability to hold a full charge. Not saying your battery-saving tips are bad, just your thumbnail is a bit misleading as some people could think that they can restore their battery to prevent drainage, which is simply not possible. Besides that, keep up the good work!

Stephen, I get an issue - my phone in my pocket will call someone w/o my touching. Any ideas. Only way I found to solve clear all my recent calls.

Haha I just can’t help it I’m guilty of swiping apps closed. Not all the time but way more than I should 🙁
Also app updates shouldn’t be allowed to turn background app refresh back on again, I’ve had that happen too.

All regularly end up buying stuff you review as I trust your opinion (I’m currently rocking the same Ryan London case you have). In this case I stopped the video before the end to order the Kuxiu MagSafe Battery. It isn’t on UK Amazon so I ordered from Kuxiu direct and used code WELCOME35 to save a little extra.
This thing isn’t just a cool battery, it has pass through charging and can also do AirPods as well as iPhone and Apple Watch, so this might be the most compact and useful travel battery and bedside charger combo out there.
It is worth noting they do a 10,000mAh version too. There is also a gold colour option, but only in 5,000mAh.

Any additional tips?
I've already tried most of them and still, I end the day (~18h) with around 20 % battery left, BUT I only used my 15 Pro (not Max) for only 1 to 2h ... I'm on WiFi the whole time.
I would expect 5h of usage, but then it would only last the half day, is my expectation just too high?
I'm not using my phone because of this ... (well, at least it stopped my social network "addiction" ... lol)
