Hello,

is anyone using Battery Doctor from Beijing Kingsoft? Can iPhone actually benefit from this app? And what does that Accelerate option really does and is it recommended to use it?

thanks
 
Battery Doctor

I had the iPhone 4 and it worked great it literally doubled the life of my battery, but only when i followed almost all of the tips that the app provides... the big ones being, location services, continuous data fetching, notifications, and leaving bluetooth and wifi on all the time, and brightness too.

however i just got the iPhone 5 and updated the app and it doesn't seem to do as much so far, but its also hard to tell bc the iPhone 5 battery doesn't last too long anyways.... but it does seem to last a little bit longer when i follow the same tips.

hope this helps. :)
