It\u2019s important to keep them healthy so that we can have them at our fingertips (literally). But, a fully-charged battery doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s healthy. The biggest complaint with some mobiles is battery-life \u2013 and it\u2019s usually a short one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How can we prevent the slow electronic-sucking zombies from taking our battery-life? Keep it healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some tips on how to keep your smartphone alive longer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Don\u2019t overcharge.<\/strong> Most smartphones contain a lithium-ion battery, which means it needs to be treated differently. Keeping it charged more than 50% is important \u2013 but not at 100%. Somewhere between 50-80% throughout the day will give the lithium-ion battery a good workout without overworking it. When the percent starts to dip down, just plug it in a couple of times throughout the day to give it a little juice. Don\u2019t go from zero to 100, as that is more damaging and straining on the battery.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Keep it cool<\/strong>. No one (or thing) likes to be overheated.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Check those apps.<\/strong> Some apps can be a real drain on your battery. Maybe you think the battery is dying, but really, all your games are running in the background. Check the settings to see what is running and when. Location Services is usually a culprit!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Sleep.<\/strong> We all love it, and your mobile does too. Turning your mobile off to give it some rest can help it charge more quickly. And, if you\u2019re in a \u2018dead zone\u2019, your mobile will continue to search for a signal, whether it\u2019s Wi-Fi, Bluetooth (which should be turned off unless you\u2019re using it) or network \u2013 shutting it off will minimize its efforts.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Basically, treat your smartphone like you\u2019d treat yourself \u2013 it likes to be comfy and relaxed too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our mobile devices have become our lifeline.
