Battery Optimization for Apps

When you have connections such as Wi-Fi on while the phone is in sleep mode, some apps may still
continue to use the battery. Starting from Android 6.0, battery optimization is enabled for all apps by
default which helps prolong battery standby time when you're not using the phone.

The phone needs to be sitting idle for an extended period of time before battery optimization takes effect.

Turn Battery Optimization Off in Apps

If there are apps that you don't want battery optimization enabled, you can turn the feature off in those
apps.

1. Tap

Settings.

2. Tap Power.

4. Tap Battery optimization > All apps to see the complete list of apps.

5. To turn off battery optimization in an app, tap the app name, and then tap Don't optimize >

Done.

6. Repeat this process to turn off optimization in other apps.

Use Power Saver Mode

Power saver mode helps to increase battery life. It reduces the usage of phone features that drain the
battery such as the display and data connection.
