Amazing Ways to Boost the Battery Life of Your Touch Phone

The following tricks will help in extending the battery life of your touch phones, by simply curtailing the phone’s moment to moment power necessities.

1. Relax on the GPS

The GPS is another battery sucker. This feature can be described as a tiny radio that transmits and receives signals to and from satellites to disseminate an individual’s location on earth. An array of applications access a person’s mobile phone to offer services such as locating the nearest fast-food joint to signing in the phone's owner to social networking sites. When installing GPS most apps normally ask for authorization to use a person’s location.

2. Minimizing the Screen’s Timeout

Under the touch phone’s display menu settings one should locate a preference labeled ’Screen Timeout’ or something close to that. The setting allows the user to control how long their phone’s display unit will stay lit after getting input, like a tap. On most devices, the bare minimum is 15 seconds. If the screen timeout of a person’s phone is at present set at 2 minutes, they should think about reducing their phone’s timeout to 20 seconds or less.


3. Switching Off Wi-Fi

Turning off the Wi-Fi feature when it is not in use also adds to a battery’s life. The Wi-Fi is a severe battery drainer.

4. Dimming the Screen

Most people love their touch phone’s big, colorful display, but the phone’s panel is the cellular device’s fatal enemy. The phone’s screen consumes the most battery life of the phone and at an overwhelming speed. Most touch mobile devices have an auto-brightness feature, which automatically adjusts the device’s screen to suit ambient system activity and lighting levels. The mode makes use of less power than constantly running the mobile device at full brightness would, of course, though one is bound to achieve better results by turning their phone’s panel down to the lowest level that one can possibly tolerate and letting it remain there.

5. Turning off the Bluetooth

Disabling the Bluetooth of the phone when it is not in use enables a person’s phone battery to last even longer. By regulating the Bluetooth feature when it is not in use allows the phone to add an extra hour to the battery.

6. Stop Extraneous Applications

The ability to multi-task is one of the greatest applications that have ever been developed for touch sensitive phones. This feature uses up a lot of power, as nearly all applications one runs use up a share of a person’s phone processor cycle. By stopping the use of applications that are irrelevant, one can drastically reduce the CPU’s workload, while cutting down on power consumption.

7. Disable the Vibration Function

Most people prefer to have their touch phone vibrate to alert them of incoming messages or calls. This is quite understandable. Unfortunately, the vibrating function uses up more energy than playing a ringtone. The phone’s vibration causes the phone to use a lot of power.
