Some ideas may be any of the following: * GPS location * Camera * Apps which use a lot of resources, like Facebook * This may be a good time to go through your Settings, specifically Privacy and Location Services and turn off or set to "while using" any apps where you don't want your location used. * Another Settings item would be General/Background Refresh. Most of the apps on my phone I have background refresh set to off, meaning when I exit the app does it stay running. This list alone would save a lot of battery, but each person has their own priorities. Finally, while I'm not a person who constantly closes apps from the App Switcher, I also keep the number of open apps to a max of 6 or 7. Sighted people don't have the luxury of knowing how many they have open, unless they count them all. I know this from observing my wife and how she uses her phone. Occasionally I will need to use her phone with VoiceOver. I have opened the app switcher and, no lie, have discovered around 40 aps open at once. No wonder she is always charging her phone, :)
