Improve battery life
Your phone processes tons of information. Depending on what apps are in use, your phone may use a
lot of power.
When your phone is not in use for a period of time, unnecessary background processes are shut
down to optimize battery life.

Battery > Battery usage.
» To help improve battery life, swipe up from the home screen and tap Settings > Battery >
Battery Saver, then tap the switch next to Use Battery Saver to turn it on. When on, your phone’s
display changes to Dark theme.
» To limit battery use for apps that you don’t use often, swipe up from the home screen and tap
Settings > Battery > Adaptive Battery, and turn it on.
