Hey, I'm looking for an iPhone app that I can use for golf, walking, running but that doesn't drain the battery. I tried runtastic today but 90 minutes into my golf round I was at 19% battery! Suggestions or is there a trick I don't know about to conserve battery life?

    What other apps were running? Did you leave the screen on the entire time?

    So many variables factor in to phone battery life that it's impossible to diagnose online.

    I didn't shut down any of the other apps (running in the background) like texting, MFP, Facebook but the screen was off. I pressed the power off (not power down) button and didn't touch it until I looked at a missed call and saw that battery %.
