Anyone know how I can save battery on my phone while in Disneyland? Besides the obvious of dont use it ;)

Double click your home button and close all of the open apps that you aren't using. Even though you aren't using them, they are still running in the background and eat up battery life. - DisneyDavidEMT  446.9 #275 11:09AM
On the iPhone of course :) - lostgirl7988  541.3 #208 11:30AM

I have only 3 words for you that will change your life: New Trent Charger! - SPandEvLover  767.7 #128 11:09AM
I turn it to airplane mode inside attractions, so it's not constantly searching for single where there isn't one! - GarnerPhotography  321.4 #513 12:39PM
I turn off the fetch on my email and set it to manual, so it's not always working to retrieve emails (that are mostly junk anyway during non working hours). Things like that steal battery life. 😊 - Sweet_Irish_Cream  2525.9 #23 10:51AM
There are also external batteries you can buy to charge your phone while it's in your backpack. That worked great for us! - brittandkell  287.9 #681 11:00AM

How do you do that? - MrsSchnooks  571.2 #192 10:49AM
How do you do that!? I have the iPhone 5 - charliesmom  30.3 #4351 10:49AM
Setting general cellular. Also turn off wifi and Bluetooth. Turn the brightness of the screen down if you don't need flash on your camera turn it off. Close out all the apps that when your done with them by double clicking the home button then hold down one of the apps till the red minus sign comes up and close them all out. I work at AT&T and get this question often, I also use an iPhone and an android device. Hope these tips help everyone!! - WonTonInWonderland  93.0 #3106 11:00AM
Turn off your wifi and close the apps that you have open on the bottom. - Linzee  515.3 #227 10:57AM
Unfortunately there is not really a way to MouseWait AND save battery. Even if you only enter wait times and don't try to access the lounge or post live photos usage is probably 3- 4 hours if you are lucky. It is highly recommended you bring a charger to take advantage of the charging lockers available in the parks or the preferred method of having a New Trent charger or similar external battery device. - GrumpyPirateDad  464.7 #262 11:06AM
dim the brightness on screen - Chumash28  763.3 #130 12:45PM
