Have you been in a situation where in you received a low battery notification from your smartphone while you are on the road? Well, isn’t that an inconvenience? This is even more frustrating during the times when you need your phone the most to be turned on. There are actually ways to make the remaining juice of your battery last longer. Check below to find out how.
1. Reduce brightness. Dim the screen of your device to preserve the battery life. It also helps if you reduce the screen timeout of your phone to a minimum to provide you with extra hours to use it.
2. Turn off vibrations. Keeping your phone in vibrate mode consumes more energy that having it alert you about notifications via ringtone. Sounds produced by your phone as ringtones are just tiny vibrations from the speaker, while vibrating the whole device drains your battery quicker.
3. Close all unnecessary apps. You may not notice that when you open app after app without closing them properly, they remain open until you kill the apps one by one or restart your phone. Manage your applications and close unnecessary apps to prolong the battery life of our phone.
4. Turn off notifications. Being notified periodically by the activities of your apps can drain your battery faster. Disable notifications among apps that are of less importance.
5. Wi-Fi is better than 3G/4G connection. If you really need to be connected to the internet considering the low battery life, then use Wi-Fi connection instead of a 3G/4G connection because the latter drains the battery faster than Wi-Fi.
6. Turn equalizer off. Though I guess with your almost drained battery, the least you could be doing is playing music through your mobile earphones. But in any case you might be doing this, turn off the equalizer, especially the bass booster, to lessen the battery consumption of your phone.
7. Keep track of software updates. Having your apps up-to-date ensures you that they use less energy their outdated counterparts do. Don’t be foolish by doing this on the time that your battery life is about to run out. Do this every so often when not in danger of draining your battery life when you need it the most.
8. Store device in room temperature. The battery of your phone depletes faster when in a warm temperature. Store it somewhere cool or away from direct sunlight.
Doing the abovementioned can provide you with an extra hour or two to still stay connected especially on the times you needed those extra hours for emergency purposes. Still, the best way to solve your about-to-be-drained battery problem is to have a replacement battery handy so you won’t have to worry ever again.
