5 apps to save battery on your smartphone or tablet

One of the main concerns and worries of every smartphone user is battery life.

And although these have increasing capacity - and although there are excellent alternatives, such as the Energy Extra Battery - the truth is that we would all like to be able to extend battery life to infinity and beyond.

If you want to save battery life , you should first keep in mind that mobile data, Wi-Fi, and the device's screen are the main energy consumers, so it's best not to overuse them. Switching to airplane mode, setting the screen brightness to automatic, or turning off Bluetooth, NFC, and GPS can help you get a few more minutes out of your battery.

But in addition to these basic tips, there are applications that will help us achieve our goal of prolonging the use of our smartphone or tablet .

In this post, we have selected 5 of the most popular ones:

• Juice Defender : Considered one of the best apps for this purpose, it practically doubles the battery life of your device. It's very intuitive and easy to use, and comes in both free and paid versions. Among the features it offers is the ability to schedule internet connections for your smartphone or tablet at timed intervals. It also allows you to easily manage mobile data , Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and CPU speed, allowing you to better control power consumption and thus extend battery life. It has three modes: balanced, aggressive, and extreme , although the latter is not available in the free version.

• Greenify : It's also one of the most popular apps , and its main feature is that it hibernates apps that aren't in use. This prevents background processes that consume data and energy. It also offers users the option to choose which apps to automatically put into sleep . If you decide to use Greenify, we recommend not hibernating apps you use daily , such as alarms, social media, or WhatsApp.

• Battery Defender : A very easy-to-use, yet comprehensive and effective app. Its mission is to detect unused items and disconnect them to save battery life . It also allows you to disable connections while you sleep or when the battery level is critical. It also displays your device's remaining battery percentage in the Android notification bar and allows you to create a list of apps or processes you never want to close.

• Saver Battery Aid - Saver & Manager : Another free app that helps you get more out of your battery by automatically turning off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and data connections when it detects they haven't been used for a certain amount of time. It also lets you turn sync settings on or off, alerts you when your battery is low, and offers various ways to save battery life, such as reducing the screen brightness.

• One Touch Battery Saver : As its name suggests, with just one touch, this application automatically closes unnecessary processes , deactivates WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS , backlight, ringtones, vibration, etc. In other words, it puts your phone to a minimum, in a state of extreme battery saving with which you will not be able to do much... although you will definitely save battery. Indeed, this application is merciless. But you know that sometimes you can't have everything and you have to prioritize.
