Apps running in the background?
I am currently new to the world of iphones and I have recently encountered a situation. Without using my phone (which was put to the sleep mode), i realized a constant fast decrease in my battery life. (IE from 94% - 80%) within a few hours. Checking the usage status, it states that I have used the phone for 2hours, under 'usage'. This is weird as I have not been using my phone at all for the last 2 over hours.
All my settings are as usual, no 3g, location settings turned off, mail fretch data turned off etc. Even as I put my phone to the sleep mode and checking it 5 or 10 mins later, the 'usage' time keeps increasing rather than only on the 'standby time'.
In solving this issue (first time encountering it), I simply restarted my phone and it is now working normally.
My question is: How do I check if any of my apps are running in the background without my knowledge and has anyone encountered a similar situation as mine? I am very careful about my battery management as it is very important in my line of work. Therefore I always ensure that the regular settings (like 3g, wifi, etc) are kept off unless needed. I don't have that many apps as I streamline what I really need. My phone is un-jailbroken and I only purchase apps available in the App Store.
I also do understand that an iphone is very unlikely to be infacted by a computer virus? My old comp used to be infacted by it but it is now fully safe from it after reformatting 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
