Hi, I have an iPod Touch 3rd generation. If I press the lock button at night before going to sleep so that the unit is in standby, I lose virtually no battery power over night. It may go from 100% to 97% but not much more than that.

Well, I have tried that, and the battery drain continued, and the usage continued to climb. Admittedly, I hadn't powered off the phone before I did it, which is what I've currently done, so we'll see how that goes. But it seems weird to me that powering off the phone should be necessary, if it's VO. If that were the case, I'd expect that turning it off should have an instant impact.

If one thinks voiceover is putting such a drain on the battery then why not just turn voiceover off when not in use for long periods of time, like when your asleep? If you wake up to the same results then you know it's not voiceover. If battery life is better, well, you now know to turn VO off when going to bed if you choose not to charge your phone over night. > On Dec 3, 2009, at 11:02 AM, Cheryl Homiak wrote: > >> There's been a lot of debate about this with some people insisting it's vo and some insisting it isn't.
