Nobody wants to be without their phone. It is the modern-day lifeline that connects us with friends, family, and information at our fingertips. However, no matter how smart or expensive your phone is, it will eventually run out of battery power. This can be problematic if you are away from an outlet for long periods of time.<\/p>\n
Luckily there are different ways you can extend the life of your phone’s battery! In this blog post, we will discuss 13 ways that you can prolong the life of your smartphone’s battery, so it doesn’t die on you in the middle of a conversation with someone important!<\/p>\n
Smartphones are an integral part of our lives. We use them for everything from social media to work emails, and many people can’t imagine what they would do without their devices! But all this usage comes at a cost – the battery life of your phone<\/a> is never going to last forever. Here are the things you may do to help it last longer.<\/p>\n Having a good understanding of how your phone’s battery<\/a> works will allow you to make changes that can help extend its lifespan. Some phones, for example, have an inbuilt feature called “Power Saving Mode”. This mode includes settings such as limiting background data usage and restricting performance, so it doesn’t drain the battery<\/a> too quickly.<\/p>\n Your phone’s battery<\/a> degrades a little with each charge cycle. A charge cycle is the complete discharge and recharging of the battery, from 0% to 100%. The “charge cycle” is the amount of time it takes to fully charge a phone. The amount of time it takes to go from empty to full is referred to as a charge cycle. For instance, charging your phone from 50 percent to 100 percent would take half a charge cycle. If you repeat that process twice, you’ve got yourself a full.<\/p>\n It’s difficult to say how long a single charge cycle will last for a phone. Phone owners use their phones differently. Some people charge more than once a day, while others only do it every few days. People have different reasons for this – some of us are just casual phone users who don’t depend on our devices too much throughout the day, whereas other might be very busy and need to stay connected during all hours possible.<\/p>\n Battery longevity is key in prolonging the life of your phone<\/a>. In other words, the less often a battery drains and recharges itself, the better its lifespan becomes.<\/p>\n Fast charging is great for when you’re in a rush or need to quickly boost your battery life<\/a>. But it’s not so good long-term, as fast charging can damage your battery and shorten its lifespan. It’s important to note that fast charging your phone comes with its own risks. It puts stress on the battery, which shortens its lifespan in general. Unless there isn’t any other choice but to use a quick charge, avoid doing so if possible because, over time, this will cause more damage than good for your phone.<\/p>\n Charging at lower speeds allows the phone to function more efficiently over time.<\/p>\n When you’re planning not to use your phone for extended periods of time, it’s best to keep the battery charged<\/a> around 50%.<\/p>\n Having a shorter screen timeout is suitable for battery life because it means you’re not letting the phone sit idle while its display is still on. You can adjust your settings to turn the display off sooner or even set it to turn off automatically after just a few seconds of inactivity. This will help save power and reduce strain on your battery<\/a>.<\/p>\n The screen timeout can be toggled in the display settings of your smartphone, and it will determine how long the device’s touchscreen remains lit up before going into sleep mode or powering down when not in use. The shorter you set the time, the better for battery life because this means that less power is being wasted on a bright screen when it should be off.<\/p>\n Many of us are guilty of always checking Facebook more often than we should. However, if you’re trying to extend your battery life, then it’s best<\/a> that you reduce the amount of time and usage for this application because using social media apps can drain a phone’s battery much faster than usual.<\/p>\n Learn how to use Facebook responsibly. Restricting permissions is an easy way to do this, such as limiting video autoplay and location access; switching off notifications can be useful too!<\/p>\n It’s possible to enable this mode with an app, and it will help you conserve your phone’s battery life. This is useful when you’re in a situation where your battery needs some extra saving or if it just isn’t holding its charge as well as usual.<\/p>\n Energy saver modes are good for times when you need to save power quickly or if your phone’s battery is draining<\/a> fast. It will put the device in a power-saving state and reduce performance and background data to give you more juice.<\/p>\n This mode can be activated through an app or from within the settings of your smartphone – it might even come with pre-installed software, depending on which model you have.<\/p>\n To conserve power, turn off any radios that aren’t necessary. This includes Bluetooth and GPS location services – if you’re not using them, then they can be safely turned off to save battery life.<\/p>\n When these devices are on standby, it puts some strain on your phone’s battery so it’s best to switch them off when their use isn’t required.<\/p>\n Extreme temperatures can cause damage to your phone’s battery<\/a>, so it’s best not to let the device get too hot or cold. Storing a smartphone in an environment that is either really hot or really cold won’t do anything good for its lifespan. Both of these conditions are bad for batteries because they have trouble working at their full capacity when extremely warm or cold.<\/p>\n Don’t leave your phone inside the car<\/a> on a hot day, and avoid leaving it out in winter weather for longer periods of time. It’s best to store your smartphone at room temperature where possible – this will help prolong its life.<\/p>\n1) Determine how your phone’s battery works.<\/strong><\/h3>\n
