The One Setting Apple Doesn’t Want You To Know Is Ruining Your iPhone
September 16, 2021 by Lisa Cupido
Your iPhone is equipped with so many different settings — sometimes it’s a challenge to figure out which to take advantage of and which are a bit less useful. But there’s one thing that is certain (and should not be a secret): some settings actually deplete your device of its charge and can cause more harm than good. Being aware of the settings that you should stay on top of is important in order to avoid everything from a potential hacking to rapid battery decline. This is the one setting Apple doesn’t want you to know is ruining your iPhone.
WiFi Auto ConnectAt first, your iPhone’s ability to automatically connect to WiFi seems like a blessing. No matter where you go, whether it’s your local coffee shop to your friend’s home, your phone will automatically connect to the strongest WiFi setting possible — without your consent and without having a clue whether that connection is secure. And therein lies the problem with the iPhone’s Auto Connect setting, according to Cindy Corpis, CEO of SearchPeopleFree.
