IPhone just don’t have that much battery power; even after you optimize all settings, expecting the device to stay on for more than a day is slightly wishful thinking. What you need is more juice for your handset, and there are several ways you can provide it.

The first and possibly the cheapest solution is to get car charger for your iPhone, especially when you are traveling by car. You will be able to plug the charger to standard cigarette lighter and charge your iPhone on the run. You can also get one of those solar chargers for your iPhone. There are two types of solar chargers available for iPhone, one with built-in battery and the other is for direct charging only. The solar charger can help you keep your iPhone powered in more ways than one. With built-in battery, you can use the solar panel to charge the internal battery and use it later when you need to charge your iPhone; you can still charge your iPhone directly, whether your solar charger has internal battery or not, by placing the charger under the sun and plug it to your iPhone.

One last solution is to keep battery packs with you at all times. You can store power by charging your battery pack, and then use the device to charge your iPhone even when you have no power source accessible. No more running out of batteries when traveling with your iPhone.
