My sons school has asked us to ensure our son has an external battery back up for his iPhone. It’s because when they return it is planned that they use their smart phones In some way during lesson delivery to limit the passing of paper and possible extra risks of CV19 transmission. They are not able to plug in at school though.

Q. I think this is a great idea but would ask the PH knowledge base can anyone recommend a product we can use that is safe firstly and reliable to increase his battery life?

The two main (only?) options are a case with an extra battery, or an external battery that you can use to charge the phone a couple of times.

For external batteries/power banks, Mophie Powerstation ( possibly the Plus XL @ £35) is one of the common names for Apple products (https://www.zagg.com/en_uk/shop-by-device/iphone-6?cat=511) but you'll find loads of similar products on Amazon/ebay - just make sure it's compatible with the 6s ( such as this Yobon one @ £13).

For battery cases, try one of the suggestions from TechAdvisor.
