Have you ever noticed your phone’s battery draining inexplicably even though you haven’t used it much? One culprit is that many apps are running silently in the background. That’s where the “App Battery Optimization” feature comes in! With just a few simple settings, you can limit apps running in the background and extend your phone’s battery life, making it especially suitable for phones with smaller batteries or older models. Here’s how to do it.
What is “application battery performance optimization”?
This feature is a built-in power-saving mechanism in the Android system. It allows users to manually set the battery usage of applications according to their usage frequency and habits, thereby achieving a power-saving effect! Frequently used or important applications can be set to “Unrestricted” so that the application can run in the background and continuously receive notifications; less frequently used applications can be set to “Optimized” or “Restricted” to reduce the power consumption required for background operation and receiving notifications, making the phone more power-efficient.
How do I set “App Battery Performance Optimization”?
Using app battery optimization is very simple. Just follow these steps to adjust battery performance for a single app:
▲ Open Settings and tap “Apps,” then tap the app whose battery performance you want to optimize.
▲ Next, tap the “Battery” function for that app to adjust its battery performance. There are three options for battery optimization: “Unrestricted,” “Optimized,” and “Restricted.” Choose “Optimized” to save power, or “Restricted” for even greater power saving. This will significantly limit the app’s battery usage and may even reduce notifications.
“App battery optimization” is a great way to extend battery life, especially after a few years when battery performance may decline. Regularly checking and preventing unnecessary apps from secretly draining the battery will help your phone last longer and save power! If you often find your phone’s battery draining quickly, take a few minutes to adjust these settings!
