It’s turned off for me but my CZcams app still refreshes after I leave it for a moment. It’s so annoying
It’s probably because of the ram you have… it happens with older models like the 11 and behind
@@msvc23 yeah man..same here..never can revisit the video from left earlier.
It’s especially annoying on a custom playlist that has been set up manually. I want the playlist to last throughout the day, but if I leave CZcams open in the background and go back it completely refreshes, and CZcams does it the most by far of any app on my phone.
Why is this even a thing? It’s so annoying, it should be like a computer where the page is just always there, Diks have ruined mobile phones 😡
Its the iphone low ram capacity thats all it is
Incredibly helpful!
Worked on 15.4.1 thanks
Só no final do vídeo percebi pelos apps que vc é brasileiro :D Ótimo vídeo, parabéns pelo trabalho!
This was so informative and helpful! Thank you. What happens if an app isn't being refreshed regularly?
My 2017 iPad has been uploading so much data constantly that it’s exceeding the capacity of the connection to my isp. My speed tests drop to usless. When I turn off background app refresh, the device starts functioning normally with the speeds provided by the isp.
Wow very important information thank you very much 🙏👍
Thank you for the clarification of background refresh vs new notification. It clears my doubt..so it now off with peace of mind
oh my goodness thank youu it was getting so annoying so I really appreciate it !!!
Thank you so mutch of the all informations
Thanks I had a query if it turns off the notifications. Cheers.
I keep all apps off except weather apps, messaging apps (teams, whatsapp), transport apps
Thank you.
Turn off background refresh, you'll notice a HUGE bump in battery life. Location services should be turned off for all apps you don't really use or need to use location services.
How to turn off location services sir
@@soloiobashviligo into your privacy settings and you should see location and disable it if turned on
@@soloiobashvili Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services
@@soloiobashvilisearch it up on settings
In setting you search “ location “
Bro I just subscribed
Thank you
Leave it ON for weather widget to work along with automations if using shortcuts.
Good info. As a new subscriber I’m do a bit of catch-up, so you may have covered a couple of suggestions I have.
Topics, iPhones make great hand me downs, could you make video on setting it up to give to a younger person, I.e. to make it age appropriate, and tamper proof. Any tips appreciated.
Topics, what can you do with a old but functional iPhone 6 for example.
Topics, I seem to remember a function that only allows call from numbers listed in the favourites but memory fails me.
Thanks, great site.
That was so useful video clip🙂👍Thank you
6:43 for a video that could’ve taken 60 seconds! 🤨
30 seconds even
It's only bla bla bla
You showed the apps running in the background with a flip up from the bottom. I believe this view is called the App Switcher. What happens to apps that you shutdown from the App Switcher? Will they still refresh if I have the “background app refresh” on, or will they only refresh if I can see them in the App Switcher list?
They will still refresh in the background even if they're not displayed in the App Switcher
@@heynicetomeetyouoh thank you man
@@heynicetomeetyouWait even if you force close the app it will still refresh?
If I put it in airplane mode does that stop this
I don’t really see the difference between when it off and when it’s on,, just turn on for the apps you use most and that’s save battery health too and doesn’t drain your battery any faster than it was before
I only use Gmail, CZcams, google maps and turned everything to OFF. No difference and the battery lasts twice as long.
What else can I do to speed up the phone
Thank u that's helpful
i always turn off to help the battery last longer
I have it On only for email and messaging apps like: Whatsapp and so on
Still can't download/upload big file on browser while minimized 🙄
Yes.
I have TikTok turned off and it still refreshes when I go back to the app and it refreshes. Frustrating
i do facebook/youtube lives every week and about a month ago the quality of my videos have been awful ~ IF it turn off my background refresh, will this help with the quality of the videos
O inglês do Daniel é MUITO melhor que dos indianos. Brabo d+
Will background app refresh still be on if I force close all the apps?
No, its only for when apps are suspended in background. I just turn it off altogether. Its *almost a useless feature to me.
@@waywardsoul4918 Will I still get instant push notifications from like messaging apps from WhatsApp when turned off?
Mine won’t let me turn it on. What do I do? It has turned it off for every app that I own and now my games keep on crashing because of it every time I try turning it on it does nothing.

How do you turn Safari background refresh off? Haven’t been able to find it. I’ll be in the middle of something and go to another app then back to Safari and the page refreshes ugg!
Setting look for go to general
@@brandonsmith6962strange thing is Safari doesn’t show up in the background app refresh part or even in the app section to change the settings.
What happens when you turn refresh off? I still don’t understand why I need it. Does it make apps slow to open if it’s off?
Just turn it off. It does nothing.
I cannot access the Background App Refresh, it's like it's locked, I have no ability to change this setting. How do I change this , thanks.
are you using an Iphone?
I found that the ability to lock delete app function was on. Phew
Please help me I have same problem
Turn off low power mode battery option
wish you did ask the people in the background respect that you are recording. this bothers me to hear them talking in the background
Does turning it off affects live activities?
No.
I always close down apps, so there’s no point in this setting for me?
I have heard that closing the apps drains battery more than letting it be on the background. That it works and have sense on android phone, not Iphone.

I don’t leave shit in the background. Simple as that. When you’re done with an app, make a habit to swipe up and close it out.

Save your battery and data.
would this make my phone charge longer ????
What
The bar is so low for today’s human. Watched this and 2 other videos and I’m not really any more informed than when I read the vague apple discription. Would it have hurt to give some more specifics about the pros and cons of keeping it on vs off beyond just battery life. Such using a popular app as example and saying this is specifically what would happen or not happen if this app is not updating constantly. Just saying that it will not update in the background can be quite a bit vague for those whose entire existence is not their phone
Can already tell by reading this you are probably of an older generation, he perfectly explained it, if you leave it on your app will automatically refresh apps in the background whenever you have connection, if you turn it off your app won’t refresh until you open it again, if you would like to save your battery life/data and potentially have your phone be usable for longer, turn off background refresh to save on battery life 🤙 all it really does is keep refreshing so when you open the app it is all still loaded, this is honestly pretty useless so I always turn off refresh and prioritize battery
And apples battery drain is a joke too, didn’t apple get some for this years ago? Con artists!!
My battery health drops by from 100 to 98 in just few days after i updated ios 16.4😔
Has nothing to do with it. 😂
@@josephpepe2607 same here😂😂
I don’t update
👍🏾
So blury...
REGARDLESS REGARDLESS IF YOU TURN IT OFF THE IPHONE LOW RAM STILL REFRESHES THE APPS
Nothing really new
.
You dont tell us where to go to change settings so that background refresh is on only in wifi and where to turn it off on specific apps. Meanwhile you take up our precious time telling us 6 times that having refresh turned on does not cancel notifications. You get points for stating the all-too-common fact that Apple’s “explanations” are nonsensical.
You must have too many dislikes ! Man go to the point already !!
