Never leave your iPad in a hot car or any similar environment. The intense heat saps devices of battery power. Exposing it to extreme heat and light can affect the battery's ability to hold a charge for long periods. This type of damage is not covered in your warranty, making this a pricey mistake.

 

You can extend the life of your iPad's battery by using the device in Airplane Mode. In Airplane Mode, WiFi and wireless radio are disabled. This is ideal if you do not require an Internet connection to use your iPad. You will still be able to use your tablet to read e-books, play games and use certain apps without draining the battery.

 

If time is of the essence, avoid charging your iPad with an iPhone charger. The iPad carries 10 watts as opposed to just 5 watts for the iPhone. If you use that iPhone battery charger, it will be twice the time to charge. Use the charger that came with your iPad instead.

 

Keep an eye on the amount of downloadable space available on your iPad.

Remove unwanted apps and music from time to time so this does not happen to you.

 

Turn off your Wi-Fi when not in use. Your iPad will constantly search for Wi-Fi signals even when you don't want it to. That is, if your Wi-Fi is turned on. When you are out and about and don't need Wi-Fi, simply turn it off. It will extend your battery.

Remember, your iPad is still a piece of technology; it can break or brick without much warning.
