Smartphones have greatly influenced our lives. These phones come with lots of features that help us perform the various daily tasks. Smartphones are different from the conventional mobiles phones as they are much bigger in size and have got more advanced features than the conventional phones. It is true that 4G connectivity, huge screen, in-built hotspots and a slew of many other factors have played a much bigger role in luring the users, however, all these great features affects the battery life of the phone and reduce it to a great extent. Thus, it is important that you should know how to use your phone and close all the features that are really not required in order to extend the battery life of the phone. Even though the battery life of various phone varies, there are some basic tips that will help to prolong the battery life of your smartphone.

Adjust screen brightness
The brightness of the screen has got a great impact on the battery life of the phone. Thus, you need to adjust the brightness and keep it at an optimal level. This will surely help to increase the life of the battery.

Turn GPS updates off
These updates help in locating the phone and are useful in navigation purposes. However, using GPS updates require a lot of power consumption and you should activate them only when you actually require it.
Avoid using live wallpapers/themes
You must have often seen many smartphones having live wallpapers or themes. No doubt that these look beautiful on your phone, however, they consume more power than the static backgrounds and if you want to prolong the battery life of your phone, you must avoid the use of live backgrounds.

Task killer app
You must have a "task killer" app on your phone that will help you in shutting down all the apps that are running in the background. Many a times it happens that the users forgets to exit the app and they keep on running in background, thereby draining the battery. A good "task killer" app will ensure that no unnecessary processes run in the background.

Avoid areas with weak cell signals
The battery of your phone gets drained when the cell phone signals are weak or fluctuating. The same applies to Wi-Fi signals, thus you should avoid these areas or switch your phone to Offline or Airplane mode in such situations so as to save the battery

Uncheck your bluetooth
Scream timeout must not be more than 1minute
Install 2x battery saver, at night use it utilities to place screen filter, or download uc browser click night time mode to save battery when browsing at night
Uncheck google/location search service, goto settings-location-uncheck
Uncheck wifi after leaving location, it drains battery like leaking drum, same as bluetooth
Place phone on airplane mode,
Install trustgo antivitus+mobile security, it comes with its appkiller widget

Check those applications that were previously killed by that task killer again after like say 10mins in the list of running applications and you will be amazed that they have successfully restarted themselves,this is so frustrating......any help?
