Getting the Most Battery Life

Maximizing your battery life will help you get the most out of your devices while performing. The following suggestions will help optimize your device and extend your battery life.

  • Keep the screen locked on Performer or Director, whenever possible.
  • Update to the latest software.
  • Turn off iCloud access.
  • Dim the screen or turn on Auto-Brightness.
  • Enable airplane mode and turn Wi-Fi back on. Note that you cannot make or receive calls while in Airplane mode.
  • Disable Background App Refresh for apps you don’t need while performing.
  • Disable location services.
  • On SoundCaster or Director, disable any inputs that aren’t being used. Use Master input switch to disable all audio when not in use (such as between sound check and performance).
