Today Smartphones has become one of the essential part of
our life. We couldn’t imagine a day without this because we use it daily mainly
to access different apps, saving our personnel stuffs and many more. But we are
not bothered about the battery usage. I will tell some methods to save our
phone’s battery life so that it can be used for longer period than before.
1. Battery Saver
By using Battery Saver method battery
life of your Windows phone will last longer. After using any app in your
Windows phone try to close it from the option otherwise, it will get worked in
background consuming battery charge. We can close all nonessential features
which gets worked in background by using Battery Saver option.
- Tap App list -> Settings -> Battery Saver -> Turn
ON (for Windows 8.1 phone)
- Settings -> Battery Saver -> Turn ON (for Windows 8
phone)
Note: To view nonessential features tap to usage
After Battery Saver is turned ON then,
- All background apps will not get functioned until you open
it.
- Automatic retrieve of emails and calendar get stopped. If
you have to update it then do it manually.
- Live tile which receive push updates will not be updated.
We choose three different options when Battery Saver get
activated. The heart icon inside battery level indicator is displayed when Battery Saver is running.
Tap on Advanced option given below Battery Saver. Choose whether Battery Saver
is activated when battery is below 20%, only stays active until the phone is
next charged, active all the time.
2. Screen Brightness
When Screen Brightness is set to High then your phone
consume much battery power. Sometimes Auto adjust brightness is ON. Then turn
it OFF and select Low brightness option.

Changing your white background to black color will also

3. Turn off wireless connections
Turn off wireless connections such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC
after using it. We all leave Bluetooth of our device in ON
condition after using it. This consume a lot of power so don’t forget to turn
it OFF. Use wired headsets other
than
Bluetooth headsets.
4. Charging method
When charging your new Windows phone for the first time
after purchase charge it completely. Sometimes it shows the battery completed
message suddenly. Then turn it OFF and once again charge it. Now it indicates
the correct battery level so charge up to 100% before using it.
Charge your battery only when it reaches below 10 %. Try to
charge it until it shows battery full. Turn OFF charger immediately after
charging is completed.
5. Turn OFF GPS
Turn OFF GPS when it is not get used. Otherwise it will
drain your battery in a fast manner. Turn it ON when you are using any location
based apps in your Windows phone.

gets locked faster.
App list -> Settings -> Lock screen then, set the time
to at least 30 seconds.
7. Increase Email Sync time

but you are using it frequently. Then turn Sync time to 30 minutes, 2 hours or
set it to manually.
- App list -> Settings -> Email + Accounts open your
account change the option under Download new content.
8. Turn OFF Xbox
