Even though it’s the premier smartphone brand that Americans prefer, there are still plenty of misconceptions when it comes to the iPhone that a lot of users have. For example, in order to save on battery life, some customers would regularly swipe up after pressing the home button twice in order to forcibly close apps. According to a tech expert, this is actually a bad idea. Updating one’s iOS right now, however, is a really good one owing to a dangerous flaw on the iPhone.
The idea that closing apps might save battery life seems logical at first, but as Apple pundit John Gruber explains, this is not exactly the case. According to him, doing this actually produces the opposite effect, Express reports.
"Apps in the background are effectively “frozen”, severely limiting what they can do in the background and freeing up the RAM they were using. iOS is really, really good at this,” Gruber explains. "It is so good at this that unfreezing a frozen app takes up way less CPU (and energy) than relaunching an app that had been force quit. Not only does force quitting your apps not help, it actually hurts.”
On the other hand, users can better use their time updating their iPhone to the newest version of the iOS. According to tech experts, there is currently a flaw in the device that could allow hackers to over the unit, Fortune reports.
This vulnerability specifically applies to the Wi-Fi chip on both the iPhone and the Mac laptops. By updating to the latest patches that Apple just released, users won’t have to worry about this aspect anymore. The newest iOS version in question is the 10.3.3, which is the one that users need to look out for.
