How to charge phone
Your phone is like a small computer, giving you tons of information and apps. Depending on
what you use, that can take a lot of power
. Plan on charging the phone each night so it's ready
for the next day.
1. Weaker chargers take longer to charge the phone, and if you use the phone while
charging, may not charge it at all.
2. Insert the plug into an electrical outlet.
When the phone is off and charging, you’ll see the outline of a battery and a percentage. If
the battery is completely discharged, this will not appear until the phone has received the
minimum voltage required to boot.
When the phone is on and charging, you’ll see
in the status bar.
Tips for charging phone
• You can use your phone while charging. To charge faster, don't use your phone while
charging.
• If you can't turn the phone on while it's charging, wait until it receives enough voltage
before turning it on.
• When the battery gets low, the phone sends a notification.
• Use
Battery Saver mode when the battery is low.
• You can turn off charging sounds.
Extend battery life
Choose settings that use less battery
To get the most life from your battery:
• Connections: turn off Bluetooth and GPS when you're not using them.
• Wi‑Fi: turn on Wi‑Fi
when the phone is in a location with Wi‑Fi coverage.
• Screen: turn down screen brightness and set a shorter screen timeout.
• Sync: if you don't need it, turn off automatic syncing for all accounts. This means you won't
receive notifications when updates occur and you'll need to sync manually to get new
emails.
