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, change to Dark theme, 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 manually sync to get new emails.
Temporarily conserve battery power
Use Battery Saver mode to keep going on a low battery.
Also, avoid these battery-intensive activities until you can charge:
•
Recording or watching videos
•
Listening to music
•
Taking pictures
•
Using Live (animated) wallpaper
See what’s using your battery
To see if a specific app or service is draining your battery:
1. Go to Settings > Battery > USAGE DETAILS.
2. Swipe up to view the list of apps and features using power since the last full charge.
3. Tap the app or feature using a lot of power.
4. Under Manage battery usage, tap options for reducing the power usage.
Keep adaptive battery and battery optimization on
To ensure that apps use your battery only when they need to, keep adaptive battery and battery
optimization on.
Check that adaptive battery is on for your phone
When you keep adaptive battery on, infrequently used apps will run less when you're not using them. Your
phone will learn how you use apps over time and adjust for best battery life.
1. Go to Settings > Battery > Adaptive Battery.
2.
Turn Use Adaptive Battery on .
Check that battery optimization is on for each app
If you turn off Battery optimization for an app, that app can run when you're not using it, even when
Adaptive Battery is on. This decreases battery life unnecessarily.
