Battery Life Reviews on iOS 5.1.1 for iPod

Hi! I'm looking for some reviews on the iOS 5.1.1 battery life for the iPod touch 4th generation. I just seem to be noticing that my battery life seems to seep away kinda fast. I dunno. But could some people please give reviews?? Thanks!!!

If you have a buck to spare, download the app "Battery Doctor Pro": http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/battery-doctor-pro-max-your/id340171033?mt=8


It allows your charge cycle to repair the battery using a method called "trickle charging." I have used the trickle charge method a few times and it has substantially increased my battery life.


I've had my iPod Touch 4th generation for a little over a year and a half and the battery (after the app) would last between 3-5 hours depending on what I was doing, which really isn't bad, considering what I do requires a lot of internet. But before, it would only last 2-4 hours, if I was lucky.

Mine works just fine. What most people don't understand is that the more you use your iPod, the shorter the time between charges becomes.


For example, if you just play music and have WiFi junk turned off, you can get several hours out of a charge.


On the other hand if you are surfing the net, downloading stuff, and playing games, your battery will drain much faster.
