MILLIONS of Android phones have buttons that can instantly extend your battery life.
It’s the perfect solution for when you’re running low on charge.

Sometimes you simply don’t have enough juice to get you through the day.
Maybe you forgot to charge your Android phone, you’ve been away from a socket for too long, or you’ve been using your handset more vigorously than usual.
Whatever the reason, there are two buttons that you need to know about.
The first is called Battery Saver.
Users can turn it on manually or set it to come on automatically when your charge runs low.
You’ll know it’s on because there will be a new battery icon at the top of your screen.
Battery Saver limits apps and features to reduce power consumption – although the changes will vary depending on your phone model.
You’ll find that apps stop refreshing or running in the background, and Dark Theme will switch on.
It won’t listen for OK Google and will turn Location Services off when the screen isn’t on.
To turn it on, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Saver and turn it on.
You can also set schedules here based on routine or battery percentage.
What about the second button?
Some Android phones also have a more powerful version of this feature called Extreme Battery Saver.
“Extreme Battery Saver lets Battery Saver turn off more features, pause most apps, and slow processing for even more time between charges,” Google explained.
“After you choose when to use Extreme Battery Saver, it notifies you each time it turns on.”
Extreme Battery Saver will pause most apps and block notifications.
Your phone’s processor will slow down, some Wi-Fi and Bluetooth features will stop, and hotspot tethering will end.
The screen timeout drops to 30 seconds, and any work profiles will be switched off.
To turn the setting on, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Saver > Extreme Battery Saver > When To Use.
