The best way to save battery life is to not use your phone — but that’s not going to happen, so here’s what else you can do.
- Uninstall apps that are known memory hogs — some users report that removing Facebook's Android app gave them 20 percent more battery life.
- Turn down screen brightness manually and switch off auto-brightness sensors.
- Switch off services like GPS and Bluetooth until you actually need them.
- Use silent mode or turn up the volume instead of vibration notifications that use more battery.
- Change push notifications to a fetch notification to only look for new messages at set intervals.
- Use the power save mode.
