A lot of people are having a difficult time keeping their smartphone's battery life in check even with help from power banks and smart battery charging cases. You can bring a charger with you, but the likelihood of there being an available power outlet wherever you go is highly unlikely. Luckily, there are simple ways for you to save your smartphone's battery and make it last longer, potentially even for an entire day.
The first thing you can do in order to prolong your smartphone's battery life is to reduce the screen brightness. According to an article from Yahoo! News, this is the best thing you can do to extend the battery life of your device. Another helpful thing you can do is to set the timer for automatic screen closing to just a couple of seconds of non-usage.
The next thing that you can do is to reduce the number of wireless features turned on in your smartphone, especially if you are not using these features. These include functionalities such as the radio, GPS, Bluetooth, near-field communication, and even Wi-Fi. It is also advisable to put your device in Airplane Mode if it is not in use, more so if it is charging.
Turning off push notifications is another excellent way for you to save up on your smartphone's battery life. Choosing the proper apps to use is also important with apps such as Google Maps and Netflix being particularly draining on your smartphone. You must also always remember to turn off applications running in the background that you are not using.
Enabling power-saving mode is another important thing to keep in mind. Many smartphones these days offer this type of functionality. Finally, as said before, it is important to keep a spare battery pack with you wherever you go. Just in case.
