    Hey, turning off transparency and animation and using the zoomed option in "Display Zoom" in "Display & Brightness"(this reduces the screen's resolution so less power gets used so better battery life) did get me around 25% longer battery life on my iPhone X, tho it did make the experience a bit worse.

    To save battery 🔋 I recommend creating an automation in your shortcuts :
    Automation 1 : When your phone joins any WiFi network SET Mobile Data to OFF
    Automation 2 : When your phone leaves any WiFi network SET Mobile Data to ON
    This will automatically switch between mobile data and WiFi whenever one is available and turn off the other, I saved significant battery doing this

      @@thesamuelnam also to « extend » the life expectancy of the battery, as Apple can’t be bothered to give us the option to stop charging at 80% and only gives that to 15 pro users, I created an automation that when battery raises above 80% I get a notification or a text to speech to remember to unplug it. You could also do something similar with HomeKit Compatible plugs that switch off once the iPhone reaches 80%. Although to be fair this phone is mostly better used when battery is charged to 100% and then change the battery for a new one once it’s loosing too much potential

    Like the tips here , however the minis aren’t really made for good battery life. They’re the weakest in battery life second only to the SE. The base 15 isn’t even that big of a phone and will save a lot of battery anxiety. Outside of the apple realm though there are the zenfones , flips and what not which give you good battery life without these compromises.
