- 8 years ago
Battery at 10%? Again? With phones getting ever more powerful and apps becoming increasingly demanding, batteries do not last long today. It’s a daily problem for many of use, and while generally your phone dying is just annoying – in an emergency you can be really left in a pickle.
But now you can stop worrying, because today I have five applications to lengthen the battery life of your smartphone.
Greenify is an interesting app designed to stop all those background processes that sop up your Android phone’s energy. You see, turning off your phones screen does not stop it working, but what Greenify does is make the background apps "hibernate" when you’re are not actively using your phone. Its other features include automating the process and the option to avoid losing notifications from hibernated apps.
Battery Doctor from Cheetah Mobile, the creators of Clean Master, it a rounded battery app available for Apple and Android. This app diagnoses your battery: percentage of remaining, battery voltage, temperature... and they do a complete analysis and troubleshooting to extend its life. Also, when you change your phone, it calculates the time it will take, and charge it intelligently in three stages to ensure its completely and efficiently charged.
The famous antivirus company, Avast, also has a popular battery saving application. Avast Battery Saver may not have the most imaginative name, but it do promise 20% more battery life per charge. Besides informing you of the battery capacity and minutes remaining, it also lets you know apps that really soak up the power. The app also automatically creates profile, or lets you make your own, to improve your power consumption based on situation: brighter, Wi-Fi connection, canceling notifications, all designed to maximize battery and activated with a tap.
DU Battery Saver prevents battery waste on a number of levels. On the one hand it saves energy by limiting all those app that try to push notifications on your Android phone – it even tells you how much power you save as you cancel each. It can also close app that can overheat your phone, a huge drain on battery. You can schedule these activities and change the time until the screen turns off. That app even lets you know how much energy all of your tweaking saved.
Juice Defender is one the ugliest battery saving application. Still, for years it has remained one of the most trusted and highly ranked among users. If you pay for the Ultimate version you will not believe number of options available, but even with the free version is remarkably effective. Just activate Juice Defender and decide on a profile - balanced, aggressive or extreme - though the latter can only be customized in the paid version.
Of course, when it’s absolutely necessary, the only real way to guarantee saving power is to not run any apps, turn down the brightness, deactivate Wi-Fi, and generally to not use your phone – but for day to day use these apps will help you squeeze out those few extra hours of fun.
Next week I will be back to bring you the five best pieces of Office software.
