Uninstall dormant apps
Apps are one of the major component involved in causing battery draining problems. Now, you have an Android smartphone i.e. Mobiistar or any other smartphone that has bloatware or pre-installed apps. Then again, there are a bunch of third-party apps that everyone installs of which, only a few are used while leaving some of the apps installed but never used. Even after you aren’t using an app, it is still installed and uses memory on your storage while some might even use other resources even after not in use. This increase battery consumption which is one of the triggers why your phone’s battery drains out quickly.
The best way to get rid of these unwanted or dormant apps is to uninstall them. Navigate to the Settings tool and then, open Apps section and slide to Downloaded apps that gives you access to a list of all the apps that are downloaded. You can uninstall the downloaded apps that you no longer need and you can disable the bloatware since they are easy to be uninstalled. You’ll notice a sharp performance boost when you uninstall these apps.
Use power saving mode
Most of the smartphones have a power saving mode that automatically activates when the battery reaches 15 percent. But the best move to get the most of the battery left is to turn on the power saving mode in advance. But if you don’t have a power saving mode, you can check out apps on the Play Store and download the same to enhance life while using the smartphone as a feature phone for the time being.
Use apps that extend battery life
No, not all the apps on Play Store referred to as third-party apps are power-hungry or problematic, there are some apps available that enable the user to extend the battery life using some algorithms and methods. One such app is Greenify that identifies the apps causing the most battery draining problems and allow the user to hibernate these apps. Greenify boosts the functionality of the device by reducing the amount of lagging as it limits the apps from using more battery than usual along with alarms to alert the user about any power-hungry app that can be hibernated, uninstalled or disabled for some time. You’ll find a number of apps on the Play Store under ‘similar’ section.
Practice proper battery etiquettes
All the Mobiistar smartphones have Lithium-Ion batteries that have a certain recharge lifecycle. When the user charges the battery over time, the battery’s capability decreases and that is where battery draining problems kick in. There is a specific protocol recommended by experts that helps extend battery life even further. Some experts suggest that you mustn’t charge the phone over 90 percent and you mustn’t allow the phone to discharge below 10 percent which is referred as 90-10 proponent. But there is another group that recommends following an 80-20 proponent where you mustn’t charge the phone over 80 percent and don’t let the phone to discharge below 20 percent which is good for battery’s health.
Again, there is a third opinion of another group of experts that recommends the user to keep the battery between 80 to 40 percent but never let it charged till 100 percent. When the phone is completely charged, you might notice that the battery life decreases to 90-odd percent after few minutes of use which is a reason why experts recommend not to charge over 90 percent.
