A low battery at the wrong time can ruin your day — but you can easily stretch your charge without changing how you use your phone.
Try these tips:
- Turn on Low Power Mode (iPhone) or Battery Saver (Android) to limit background activity.
- Reduce screen brightness or use Auto-Brightness so the display adjusts to lighting conditions.
- Disable unnecessary background app refresh and auto-sync options.
- Close or uninstall apps you rarely use, especially energy-hungry ones like video or social media platforms.
These adjustments can add several extra hours of battery life every day — and help your battery stay healthy longer.
