Battery life
Your phone is like a small computer that processes tons of
information and apps at lightning fast speed. Depending on
what you use, that can take a lot of power.
When your phone is stationary, not charging or not in use for a
period of time, unnecessary background processes are shut
down to optimize battery life.
To see what’s using up battery power, touch Apps
> Settings > Battery.
To turn on Battery saver, touch Apps > Settings
> Battery, then touch Menu > Battery saver.
Tips & tricks

reduce:
