Smartphone Batteries Quit Too Soon

Sometimes smartphone batteries do not last out the day.

What to do?

Especially, turn off functions which require the phone to poll constantly for gps, bluetooth, wifi, cell connection, notifications, and so on.

In no particular order....

adjust your display brightness down (the biggest drain)

turn off Bluetooth

cut down on notifications

uninstall Facebook

turn off GPS if you can

don't leave apps running (tap on the square block at the right bottom of the screen to see them)

fetch email less frequently in settings

turn on battery saving mode in settings

turn the phone off when not using and where the signal is weak

charge frequently, as in the car

send notifications to lock screen

set a dark wallpaper

toggle to airplane mode
tuirn off cell data

To see how effective you have been, go to settings/battery after a full charge tio see how long you can go before recharging.
