Conserve Battery Life
Conserve your battery life by turning off features and adjusting settings on your Fire phone.
Battery life will vary based on device settings and usage. Use the following tips to conserve battery life on
your device.
• Lower screen brightness – Swivel your phone or swipe down from the top of the screen to open the
Quick Actions panel, and then move the slider to a dimmer setting, or turn on Auto to have your device
adjust the brightness automatically.
• Turn off Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth – From the Quick Actions panel, tap the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth icon to
turn them off when not in use. If you don’t need access to your mobile network, tap the Airplane Mode
icon to put your phone in Airplane Mode.
• Use headphones - Plug headphones into the headphone jack on the top of your phone to avoid
extended use of the audio speakers.
• Adjust screen timeout to less than 30 minutes – From the Quick Actions panel, tap the Settings
icon. Tap Display, and then tap Change time to sleep to access the Screen Timeout settings. Select
the time it takes for your phone to go into sleep mode when you're not using it.
• Reduce the inbox check frequency for the Email app - From the Quick Actions panel, tap the
Settings icon. Tap Applications & Parental Controls, tap Configure Amazon application settings,
and then tap Email, Contacts, Calendar. Select an e-mail account, and then tap Inbox Check
Frequency to change how frequently your Inbox checks for new e-mails from that account.
