Android Apps That Kill Your Battery by Sheenor: 12:01pm On Nov 30, 2014 |
Research has found the top 10 battery draining apps on your Android smartphone, here’s what to avoid. Is your Android battery always running out before the end of the day? The following apps may be part of the problem, research has now confirmed the biggest battery draining apps on Google’s platform. AVG researched anonymous data from over 1 million AVG Android app users to find the worst apps for using battery. With the advent of Android Lollipop (and things like Project Volta) and very large batteries inside modern phones, battery drain isn’t the problem it once was. Nevertheless, you’ll still want to get optimum performance from your handset and in order to do so it’s worth keeping an eye on the applications you use most –– they could be hurting your battery more than you know. The research was conducted throughout Q3 2014 and each app had to have over 1 million downloads from the Google Play Store. Here are the results courtesy of CNET. Top 10 Battery Drainers -- Run at Start Up 1. AllShareCast Dongle S/W Update (Samsung) 2. ChatON Voice & Video Chat (Samsung) 3. Beaming Service for Beep'n'Go (Moheam) 4. magicApp: Free Calls (magiclack VocalTec) 5. Samsung WatchON Tablets 6. Facebook 7. Path 8. PPS for Mobile 9. Vault-Hide SMS Pics & Videos 10. Al-Moazin Lite Prayer Times The two biggest culprits come straight from Samsung - those running Samsung devices aren't able to delete either app. WatchON Tablets from Samsung also sits at number 5 on the list and can't be removed either. AVG also revealed some more statistics on performance draining apps. Top 10 Performance-Draining Apps 1. Facebook 2. Path 3. 9GAG Funny Pics & Videos 4. Instagram 5. Spotify Music 6. BBM (BlackBerry) 7. QQ (Tencent Technology) 8. textPlus Free Text & Calls 9. Wattpad Free Books & Stories 10. iFunny : ) Top 10 Battery-Draining Game Apps 1. Puzzle & Dragons (GungHo Online Entertainment) 2. Hay Day (Supercell) 3. Candy Crush Saga (King) 4. Minecraft -- Pocket Edition (Mojang) 5. Cookie Jam (SGN) 6. Pet Rescue Saga (King) 7. Clash of Clans (Supercell) 8. Bubble Witch 2 Saga (King) 9. Farm Heroes Saga (King) 10. Angry Birds (Rovio Mobile) Top 10 Storage Eaters 1. NY Times -- Breaking News 2. Tango Messenger Video & Calls 3. Spotify Music 4. Facebook 5. Chrome Browser 6. 9GAG Funny pics & videos 7. Instagram 8. LINE camera -- Selfie & Collage 9. Vine 10. Talking Angela These apps don’t include the less popular options on the Android platform - anything below one million downloads could drain more battery but wasn't included in the lists. Also note the fact Facebook appears on all three relevant lists. If you really want to tap into some more Android power it may be time to give up on Zuckerberg's mobile app and just use the mobile site itself. It’s certainly worth having a look how many of these apps you are using on your Android smartphone and seeing if you can save some battery power by not running them. www.knowyourmobile.com/apps/battery-problems/22832/android-apps-kill-your-battery
