Want your iphone battery to last longer???

Then follow this simple trick to disable unnecessary running processes that may be running in the backround of your phone. 

Alot of apps (many that don't need to) stay open in the backround of your phone, despite being closed by the user, they are taking up CPU cycles and memory space, and are sapping at your phone's battery.

Closing these running processes is remarkably simple.

  Step 1.  Double click on the home button (the one at the bottom of your iphone, really the only button on the face of the device).  This will list at the bottom of the screen all the running processes, you can scroll through them sideways, and marvel at all that is running that you don't need to have running!

  Step 2.  Press and hold one the running apps for a second or two...this will cause them to 'wiggle', and they will have a minus symbol in the upper left of their icon.  To end the process, simply tap the minus symbol over the offending app to close.  I think you'll find that the bulk of the apps running are not mission critical.

Pretty easy to do, and it will make your battery last longer to boot!
