Simple tricks to make your smartphone battery drain more slowly

The battery runs out by lunchtime, and you're looking for a charger again, Ukr.Media reports.

It's time to take control of your phone and learn how to save battery life.

Turn off battery-draining notifications

Go into your settings and check which apps are constantly bombarding you with notifications. Turn them off for anything that doesn't require urgent attention, like games.

The screen will stop turning on every five minutes, and the battery will breathe more freely. This will save almost a quarter of the charge per day.

Turn on dark mode for your screen

Open the display settings and switch your phone to a dark theme without thinking. On OLED screens, black color eats up almost no energy, it's a fact.

Even on regular screens, the backlight is less strained in this mode. Check it out for yourself – by evening you will notice the difference.

Stop background processes manually

Go to the “Battery” section in Settings and find the apps running in the background. Stop the ones you don't need every second, like old messengers:

• Open the list of processes and disable background work of social networks.
• Check the statistics – this can save up to 15% of the charge.

This way the phone will stop wasting energy on nonsense.

Reduce the brightness to a reasonable level

Forget about auto-brightness — it often makes the screen brighter than you need. Manually set it to 20-30% indoors via the display settings.

Outside, add according to the weather, but no more than half the usual scale.

Turn off sensors that are not needed

Swipe down the notification shade and turn off Bluetooth if your headphones aren't plugged in. Do the same with GPS when the maps are resting in your pocket.

These things constantly drain the battery, especially if the phone is not new. Turn it off once and you're guaranteed an evening without an outlet.
