iOS 5 Battery Improvement Advice

If you're like me then you enthusiastically updated to iOS 5 the second it came out and then happily headed into work once the upgrade, which felt like it took days, was completed. Also if you're like me you have an iPhone charging cable everywhere you go, with good reason. But this time you may have found that your iPhone spent much more time dangling off the charging cable than usual. If so then here's a tip to get some of that performance back: remove weather and stock from notifications.

1. Tap on Settings
2. Tap on Notifications
3. Tap Edit in the top right
4. Drag Weather and Stocks out of the notification centre list by tapping and holding on the three bars on the right side of the weather and stock row and dragging it into the Not In Notification Centre list which is towards the bottom of the screen.
5. Once both are out of the list tap Done in the top right

I've seen a massive improvement in battery life and performance since doing this so it may be worth trying if you are having battery issues.
