Q: Battery of my iPod touch 6g

Hi, I would like to know why my battery is running so fast when my iPod Touch (6 generation 32GO) is on sleep mode (not when he's turn off completely) I open it and the battery lost energy even if I put it on "plane mode"..I really don't know what to do.. I restore it many times, but it seems to have the same problem..(I put my backup that I did before restore it)

I can use it like one day and its battery is almost drained.. If I'm very lucky, it can be two days just if I don't use it many times and if I don't receive a lot of notifications..(however, the battery still drains a little bit..)

Is it normal..?

Thanks a lot! 

iPod touch, iOS 6

    Mine is the same way. I have to charge it every night.

     

    You can look into things like background app update and background app refresh. they can be little battery drainers without you realizing it.


    Beyond that, it's a tiny battery that doesn't last all day.

    I realize that the iPod doesn't last all day but shouldn't it go into sleep mode with the on/off/sleep button?  My iPod started to drain the battery recently as if it is not going into sleep mode at all.  The battery get totally drained after about eight hours of near no use.  Got any idea how to force it into sleep mode?

    Mine seems to sleep. I tap the power button and the screen goes off.

     

    Have you poked around in the settings. Maybe there are background processes running. Such as background app update and background app refresh. Also having your mail set on push instead of fetch can drain the battery since its checking for new mail at regular intervals.

    What do  you think sleep mode is?

    The device is "sleeping" if you did not "Slide to Power Off" and the screen is blank except if yo are playing audio with the screen blank.

    When "sleeping" the device is still doing things according the Setting you have set. Those include downloading Mail messages, updating apps
