Why Your Phone Battery Drains Fast — and 5 Fixes That Actually Work

 We all hate it when our phone hits 20% before lunch. But often, it's our own habits (or hidden settings) that cause it. Here’s what worked for me on both Android and iPhone:


1. Disable Background App Refresh

Apps like Facebook or Gmail refresh constantly—turn this off in settings.


2. Lower Screen Brightness or Use Adaptive Mode

Your screen is the #1 battery killer.


3. Avoid Live Wallpapers

They look cool but constantly consume CPU.


4. Turn Off Location Services for Unused Apps

Many apps track you even when not in use—review app permissions.



5. Use Battery Saver Mode When Idle

Especially useful when you’re commuting or not using the phone actively.
