Cydia battery tweaks that save battery like a pro

 

The title Cydia battery tweaks that save battery like a pro pretty much explains the thing which we’re going to discuss today. If you are still unaware of the term “Cydia“, then read the next sentence carefully. Cydia is an app store for iOS where users find the apps/tweaks that can be install on jailbroken iPhone and iPad.

There have always been issues with the battery life of newer iOS versions. In earlier versions, it was way better. But now it’s as you charged it to 100% in the morning and till the evening it gets down to 10-20%. Which definitely forces you to stop using it and put it on charge.

Some people follow the different precautions for saving as much battery as possible. But for most of the people, this thing sucks…

So what now?

Well, we have handpicked and personally tested two Cydia tweaks that save 2x times more battery. These tweaks have helped us and will surely help you too.

#1 – BattSaver

It is a free and quite famous battery saving tweak by Xvolks. BattSaver is available for iOS 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. It can be install on any jailbroken iPhone, iPad, and iPod. The most attractive feature is the smart and automatic way of task handling. It switches off the things/apps that are consuming battery in idle. Most importantly it reduces the charge cycles to extend the battery. All the effects of these functions can be monitor by the battery monitor inside the app.

In other words, it is one of the most powerful battery saving Cydia tweaks available to download at the moment. To install this tweak, you must have the jailbroken iOS device.
