Understanding the causes that affect battery life will help you extend battery life effectively, helping your phone operate stably for a long time.
Phone screen brightness is too high
To save battery, consider adjusting your phone's brightness settings. Choosing a setting that lets your screen adapt to the outside light conditions allows your phone to dim in low-light areas and brighten in well-lit areas. For iPhone users, you can quickly adjust brightness using the Brightness Slider in Quick Control Center.
If turning down the screen brightness isn't enough, switching to dark mode for frequently used apps and your phone's general display can be a useful alternative. Dark mode replaces the usual white background with a black background, reducing power consumption without affecting visibility.
Do not turn off background applications
Background applications are applications that continue to operate even when you are not actively accessing them. For example, antivirus software or health applications. These apps provide convenient services but can also significantly drain your battery.
To save battery, you should turn off background apps that you don't need to check constantly.
By turning off unnecessary background apps, you can significantly reduce battery consumption and extend your phone's battery life.
Do not turn off mobile data and Wi-Fi when not in use
Having Wi-Fi or mobile data constantly on can significantly drain your battery, especially when you receive unnecessary notifications and notification updates in the background. To save battery, consider turning off these connections during times you don't need them.
When sleeping, you should turn off Wi-Fi. You can activate airplane mode or simply turn off Wi-Fi and mobile data from your phone's quick settings menu. This will prevent unnecessary data usage and save battery life.
Track the apps that drain your phone's battery
Some apps may consume more battery than others. To identify these power-hungry apps and take appropriate action, you can check your phone's battery usage settings:
For iOS, go to Settings, tap Battery, select Show battery usage. For Android , go to Settings, search for “battery usage” or “battery by app”.
By reviewing your battery usage data, you can identify apps that are draining your battery excessively. If you identify unnecessary apps, consider deleting or reinstalling them to improve your phone's overall battery life.
