Love Your Battery: Tips for Longevity
February 14, 2025
Batteries are the heart of our mobile devices. Show them some love this Valentine's Day with these maintenance tips.
Avoid Extremes
Don't let your battery drop to 0% or stay at 100% for too long. The sweet spot for lithium-ion batteries is between 20% and 80%.
Temperature Matters
Heat is the enemy of battery health. Avoid leaving your device in direct sunlight or hot cars.
Smart Screen Usage
Using the Screen Wake Lock API (like on MyScreenOn) is more efficient than setting your system sleep timer to "Never", as it allows you to easily toggle the state without digging into settings.
