    Have you tried let it down to 0% and do a full charge? (Actualy the device shut down about 3%).
    By the way, other people doesn't recommend let it down under 20%...everybody has our own opinion, you kow.

  • Cmemory is a good app for keeping the. If you jailbreak the ipad you can use Icleaner pro to turn off a shit load of useless daemons and free up memory too. I have found leaving Auria running in the background kills my Ipad miniR battery.

  • Apps running in the background, various system settings (iOS7 particularly), and comms running (Bluetooth, wifi, cellular) are where I'd start looking.

  • There are several battery apps available. I have used the free BatteryDoctor since buying my 1st iDevice. I'm not having any battery issues but I can't tell if it is helping or not because I haven't not used it :-) .

  • Is Cmemory a jailbreak tweak? I've looked but didn't find it on the App Store.

  • It's been pulled

    Sadly, because does a good job.

  • Ouch, glad I grabbed it when I did, this explains why I can't activate the pro upgrade anymore too.

  • I found that Safari and app-store drain the battery of any ios device.
    Loopy is another battery sucker, Auria is the biggest evil.
    Synths normally don't drain so much battery, actually I'm not sure about Bias, because I ever use it in conjuction with Auria or Loopy.
    For example iOS7 killed my iPhone5 battery -.-.
    With many opened apps in the background the sound quality is very poor, too many glitches.

    Try to turn down your screen light.

  • Take care that many apps activates by themselves their own services, like notifications, localization, etc. not mention that Apple enables sometimes the bluetooth (I don't know why).

  • I'm glad I got cmemory when I did. Why the hell was it pulled?

  • Cmemory is the reason I can now get things done in Auria without crashfest.

  • No idea. No news has leaked.

    cMemory is indeed a great app, and I also was just in time to grab it. Weird that it has been pulled. Perhaps it is bad for Apple from a commercial point of view, for instance it could prevent people from buying a faster iPad/iPhone, but this is just speculation.

  • Sounds like the app was reporting way more RAM than what was really installed....

  • cMemory definitely have issues with the newer 64bit devices and iOS 7, it's never reported more then 1gb of RAM on any device here though. Hopefully the dev temp pulled it to fix the issues with iOS 7 and the app. SYS Activity Manager works a lot better for me at the moment, on the Air and iOS 7 (the free version can't free up RAM).

  • The camera is another big battery drain, I've heard even if it's in the background it still sucks battery more than most apps in that state.

  • edited January 2014

    Maybe the camera is in background, but still that, would be the soft, and can be get into "sleep mode" like another app...I don't know how it really works on iPad. ¿Can you imagine a DSLR draining battery continuously?
    cMemory is installed in my iPad 4 and my wife's iPad2, and is consistent in amount of RAM (about 250-300 iPad2 and above 500 iPad4).

  • Cmemory is on cydia now.

  • Turn off bluetooth and wifi when you don't need them! They are constantly searching for signals.

    Not sure all tuners are this way but I used to use the TC Electronic tuner app and if I forgot to completely kill it my battery would go bye bye on the quick. I imagine because something like a tuner is triggering processing on every sound hitting the mic. Camera apps may be a similar issue - adjusting the exposure constantly (total internet speculation- no idea if that's true).

  • I have the same problem with Polytune- if I lock my phone without closing the app it drains my battery in no time. TBH I think it might be poor programming as I can't imagine why the app would need to run while the phone is locked, and TC hasn't updated it in a long time. Pity as it's one of the best tuners on the App Store.

  • @thatsRayor looking at your avatar I have to say that you got Court out there.....groan

    Glad to hear I wasn't crazy.

  • @thinds well isn't my face red? :)

    So Cmemory works well on my ipad.... anybody know how to work this on the iPhone (4s)?

    All the memory info is displayed but cannot for the life of me find the ' deep refresh' button?

  • The main problem with those apps is that they try to lighten CPU use which is the very thing you don't want when making music as you'll need all of the resources your device has. Unless of course the app gives you a lot of control you know what you're doing. I agree though, it may be beneficial when one doesn't make music. My experience of using battery saving apps in android always resulted in issues with battery/CPU overheating as some processes go in a loop and as a result make your CPU work harder, therefore draining your battery even more. The best thing one can do is go 'airplane' when possible and the screen brightness as low as manageable. Using apps often does more damage than good and even if you manage to get some extra juice it will probably be negligible. All this IMHO of course ;)

  • Yesterday I was checking "Adjusts" and I realized that many apps activate the fonction "sending crash report" in background. Another ones have similar or differents issues so I've been deactivating some of them.
    I'm not sure if that recover a lot of RAM, but I think that anything helps.

    One reason to let your battery go all the way before recharging is to reset the device's ability to accurately display the percentage of power left.
