Do you still force close applications even though you know it's not optimal? 🧐
No shame, I couldn’t care less since I’m upgrading my iPhone 13 Pro to the 16 Pro anyways. 😂
Yes 🥴
In my IP14 pro if you leave apps running in the background it drains the battery so quickly, especially Whatsapp, so I need to close them every time. And the background refresh setting doesn’t do anything to help this issue.
Whenever someone who uses an Android phone borrows my iPhone, the first thing they do is close all the apps I left open. This says a lot about the differences between Android and iOS.
Wait… when did this change? I’ve been force closing apps religiously for years… now it’s “better” to leave them open? I’m confused lol. 😮
Honestly if ur decent at typing. Ditch app folders. Just spotlight search every time.
Add the 8 app siri suggestions widget.
Add some other apps and widgets with smart stack enabled. U can suddenly live with almost one home screen page.
Add widgets to your Today View that u frequently access and would also like to access from lock screen. Perfect for calendar, weather, a widget to control your car.
I literally never search for an app on my HS, I only find it via spotlight lol. And yeah, 1 page setups ftw! So much better
Instead of making it a couple taps on the keyboard, how about just one tap to the app since it’s right there on my first (or second) home page? That’s way faster overall imo
Love the two finger swipe to select!
Informative video Brandon! Yes. I still and always have closed apps. At the same time it's never caused me any problems throughout my iphone se 2020. I did try leaving my apps open and switching through them when need be for one day. Wow was that a mistake, since my battery life drained much quicker than usual.
BRO...this video is WAHT I NEEDED! Thank you soooooo much. 💯💯🙌🙌
Hi Brandon,
Do you have test data results or the specific/actual/written source where you can share that closing an application takes more battery life than leaving it run?
Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day.
Hi! Yes, I immediately close the page or app I'm not using because otherwise my internet will be even slower than it usually is. I live in the country and the internet coverage here is over the air and slow, so in order to be effective I have to turn off everything that is not necessary and constantly close the windows that are not in use and make the phone as effective as possible. Thank you!
Great video & great tips. Haters will be haters you keep doing what you’re doing.👏🏻
Great tips Brandon!! I really love the count option for your notifications on your lock screen and how it was such an easy setting to switch 😊👍
Thank you for all the good tips!
Loved this video! Always looking to improve efficiency 😎
Same! These videos help me to make bc they force me to check myself also lol
Thanks for the tips!
Great tips Brandon. Weldone
I’m going to try the Siri suggestions widget as a focus mode for when I’m at work.
Where can I get the old iPod wallpaper that you used?
thank you Brandon, i Really appreciate this video. ❤
Thanks for the tips.
You have a lot of good points, Brandon.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰 thank you, Brandon We truly appreciate you sharing this video with us thank you for everything. You are an amazing blessing man.
Thanks for this
My Home Screen is clean! 1x stacked widget for certain regular apps & me + spotlight are best of friends.
Nice!! 😎
Does keeping apps in the background still make sense if you’ve deactived background refresh in the settings ? I’m wondering because I close apps as soon as I know I won’t be using them for at least a few hours, even when background refresh is on some apps just relaunch everytime even if I just switched from it 10 seconds prior so idk
Most things I didn't know. Very useful
Brandon Butch’s videos make me smile 😊
Always learn something new :)
Great video. Learned a few new stuff
Thx man your the best
Hey brandon, when i add multiple siri suggestions widgets, they all have the same applications (duplicate widgets). How did it not do that for yours?
love ur content man
Great useful tips to save time and battery. I have saved this video for reference. Those who say I'll do what I like with my phone shouldn't be watching this anyway if that's their attitude. Brandon only wants to help people get the best from their ios devices. No one is forcing anyone to do anything.
Anyway thanks so much for the video.
The focus mode stuff is so useful, a lot of my focus modes have auto activation based on location. Mainly this applies to “personal”, “school” and “church” the ladder two going off when you would expect and “personal” going off when I’m at home.
How do you do that actually? I've been wanting to do that turning on focus when I'm at work and off when I leave
@@thehomiedan6378 in the focus mode section in settings, click on one of them and scroll down to “add schedule” and you’ll see 3 options for activation
Great video and channel Contant! First video I saw was this one. You have earned a subscriber with notifications on. Thank you
All I use my phone for is social media, UA-cam/Twitch, some games, and keeping in touch with friends and family, I personally have no need for efficiency or productivity, as I work as a fast food restaurant. Maybe in the future though, but right now, it’s not necessary for me, great video though, and love the tips
Great video! I learned a lot
Glad it was helpful!
I knew all of them except that the siri suggestions is so awesome. That’s actually crazy, I thought that they would look like a widget. and they also adapt to not show an app twice, crazy good, thanks
Very helpful! Can you make a video for Mac OS?
I’ve only used on finger to select and slide for choosing email to delete quickly
It does exactly the same as the as what you showed for two fingers
Great Tips.
What widget are you using on your Lock Screen? I like the big-time fonts and calendar.
Great tips! The Siri Suggestion widget is interesting. I'll have to give it a try. I wonder if I'd get annoyed when the apps show up at different places. It's almost muscle memory for me and I often open the wrong app when it's changed positions.
Love your wallpaper, BTW!
Honestly I only use the Siri suggestions widget now as my HS layout. So much more simplified. I use spotlight 99% of the time to open apps anyways so I had no issue with muscle memory 😅
Thank you
how do you get the month calendar show up on your widgets on your lock screen?
useful 👍
specially the last one🙏
Also with focus modes you can made make custom app libraries? Pages? Whatever their called for each one
Can you make a video explaining each one of your focus modes
How did you setup the large calendar on your lock screen?
I’m not entirely sold on the not closing apps thing, especially while sleeping at night. I tested leaving apps open at night while sleeping and having all the apps closed while sleeping. The battery on my phone drained more while I was sleeping with the apps open than it did with the apps closed.
This is a great video.
Are your wallpapers available on the ios store? I want to buy them!
Brandon butch is your iOS guy every time!
Where did you get that iPod wallpaper for the Lock Screen?
Really like it
You didnt put your Lightroom presets link in the description. Can I get the link
I have a custom one set to make them look more natural for when I don’t use raw. Raw tracks the filter off n I only use raw for photos I’m gonna edit
How to download the companion guide without beeing a Chanel member?
when I use Siri suggestions two or three times it just keeps adding the same suggestions. How do I get it to change to others I use?
How do you get those results in the spotlight search that you showed at the beginning? I typed in a few things in the search bar but nothing came up like in the video.
You also got to have spot light search turned on in settings. I believe it’s in Siri and search setting. Also each app as settings to include it but they on by default. So unless you turned them off they should be on
Where did you get the green wallpaper?
Video idea…please do a vid on how to get the most out of Apple Music. Thanks for the consideration! Thanks for the great work Brandon. you’re my go-to guy for all things Apple.
I never used focus modes I use regular dnd mode which works well and good also I would like the silent switch back
I always force close every app once I’m done and have great battery life and always have. My way seems to work for me so I’m gonna carry on force closing apps. Also I like my apps to stay in the exact spot I put them. It’s for muscle memory purposes so I know exactly where to go to get in that app. If I use the Siri suggestion thing it would move them all about in different places all time and that would mess with my head.
My favorite tip is the control center ’3d touch’ feature. Obviously Apple killed 3D Touch but you can still long press apps for more options. I use it in the control center for more options on the home controls, timer, flashlight, etc. Almost all of them have way better options if long pressed rather than tap.
6:50 I tried that Siri suggestion widget on mine, it just shows the same 2 rows for each widget 🤔
I keep my Home Screen empty. I just have a widget on the top showing the date. And I just use the App Library.
In my IP14 pro if you leave apps running in the background it drains the battery so quickly, especially Whatsapp, so I need to close them every time. And the background refresh setting doesn’t do anything to help this issue.
Agree, even when you turn off background app refresh for Whatsapp, when you check it under battery it has almost as much background activity as actual usage!
Yep and the same goes for other social apps and those who uses location service, I always force close my apps when not using them.
Anyone else having issues updating to 17.4.1? I haven’t had any issues with my personal devices but I work in a phone store and a lot of customers are having issues.
I’m sorry nah I force close all the apps I’m not using. I’ll deal with the battery later.
🤣
Same here always force close them after use.
How does it work differently? Leaving open tabs uses more battery and resources but leaving apps open doesn’t? I can’t figure this out…🤔
I ALWAYS close out an app after using it. And safari tabs; I always clear history and data, and close tabs. I have a fabulous 8Plus and my battery lasts at least 15 hours. I turn it off and charge it at night. But I STILL love your Vids, even tho I do it my way! ♥😉
I prefer using shortcuts to create my own app icons and folders. I customize the apps I use most to keep my home screens clean.
Brandon I don’t see where the Lightroom preset is.
The thing about the see all subscription plans trick, is that you need to have a subscription in the first place, which will be the expensive one.
Brooooo no wayyyy I love you
1:24 I don't think a VoiceOver user like myself has much choice in this one. I don't think we have a swipe to select function. Well, definitely not for items, anyway. I agree that it's cumbersome to have to manually tap to select everything, but I guess this is life when you're blind... I like the ability to listen to articles though.
The two finger drag doesn't work for voicemails for some reason lol.
You forgot to put your Lightroom presets in the description
I wanted to download that 😢
Same here. Wanted that link
I second that -looking forward to these! Great video though!
My fault. I haven't finalized the final preset yet. Added a link in the description to sign up to be notified when they go live! 🫡
I'm still waiting also. Thanks
Do you guys like the percentage battery icon on the iPhone? I feel like they could have done a lot more better to making it look sexy.
$109 for apple music?
yeah, per year
@@BrandonButch we don't have that option in Brazil yet...
I was with you until you told me close my 300 safari tabs 😂
Thankfully, I NEVER allowed Notifications from ANY app years ago except from Phone, email and iMessages! NO regrets!😉
2:20 Editing the photo after it's taken is not the same as photographic styles. Photographic styles actually affect the processing of the photo while shooting.
Leaving the tabs open on ANY browser does slow the OS down. But--even worse--it can let a hacker into your system by using any cookies he csn find in the pages you left open. Just close the windows when you are finished them. If you still need them, screenshot them, put them in your msiling list, copy the URL into Notes, ude Pocket--whatever works to find your way back or save them for reading later. But whatever you do, close the web pages before you close the browser.
Its efficient to use dictation to type but its not accurate sometimes.
You know what I wish Apple would do is put a mode in when you’re watching a video on your phone or iPad and a notification comes in. It will not make a noise. It just show the notification and the notification will go away without having to put it in.
“Stop wasting money” is a great tip for life in general
I love Steve jobs I love apple 🍎
I do not use safari or a lot of apples native apps so half this isn’t relative to me.
Wait, you can type and use dictation simultaneously? I don't think so and we didn't get an example of it here either.
I’ve never noticed tabs slowing down Safari, I have hundreds open under different categories such as research, shopping etc. Safari is set up to allow you to have countless tabs open.
Even if it doesn’t slow Safari down, it’s clutter and severely hinders productivity imo
Agree it doesnt slow down for me either and not a problem. For certain sites I just bookmark them, and other times I just start typing in the address bar and if it's a site I have visited before safari will notice it and suggest the site for me. Doesnt hinder my productivity at all :)
@@artfartzy well we're def not the same then lol. If I have more than 5 tabs opened it distracts me. And when I used to have 100+ tabs opened it would slow down when I went to open another tab/private window
@@BrandonButch Hehe I have 46 open so it's okay, I also try to close some of them when im done using them. Or else I can just bookmark them.
@@artfartzy bookmarks are my life! Couldn’t live without them lol. Same with tab groups
You can also say Siri read this page. And it will read the website you are on (it may not work on all sites).
I am getting the iPhone 15 today
Dude wtf I never knew Apple Music had an annual rate instead of monthly. Basically 2 free months this way. Thank you!
Everything thing sounded good and I do a lot of what you instructed but I force close apps when I’m not using.
First thing Apple has you do when you have an iPhone issue is to force close apps. 🤔
It doesn’t though? I’ve had iPhone for 6 years idk what you mean
@@Gabri3lRocha I don’t know the specifics but Apple and even third party Apps always say to give close apps when not being used. I’ve had an iPhone since the iPhone 3G and whenever I have had issues with my phone or a third party app everyone tells me to force close all unused apps. I also follow that’s two guys on UA-cam that use to work for Apple at the genius bar in their store and they recommend closing unused app.
Okay that Siri Suggestions on the home screen is pretty dope tbh. But wouldn't it drain more battery if Siri is always on alert for those 3 widgets?
Ehhh probably a negligible amount. Your phone will still get you through the day not life or death situation
Plenty other things take up way more battery that should be the least of your worries
What about letting battery go below 20% or going above 80%? I am so confused what i should do.
In a perfect world a battery would have the longest longevity if you just always kept it at 50 percent. That’s its chemical happy place. Realistically you will drastically improve the batteries life if you don’t let it charge above 80 percent and don’t let it discharge below 20 percent. Doing so will stress the battery in the long run. If know you have a busy day ahead of your or will just be out and about for most of the day charging the battery to 100 is completely fine.
At the end of the day battery replacement only cost $50-$80 with Apple
6:02 is my favourite
This is the only thing I am irritated.
App switcher is cool man
I do all of these things, im proud of myself haha
Meanwhile; I got like a thousand tabs open 😱
Only notifications I need is phone calls and msgs everything else I check myself lol
Makes sense. Those are more urgent especially family emergencies
Some of my shortcuts don’t show up in Spotlight 🤷♂️
The sense of airplane mode that no one could reach you via cellular 👌
