The most “greedy” feature of your smartphone: it can drain your battery in just a few hours

Experts told what needs to be changed in the phone settings so that it does not discharge so quickly.

Most smartphone users are familiar with this problem. It seems that you have just taken your gadget off the charger, and within a few hours the battery is again «winking» with a red light. Moreover, quite often, rapid discharge is not associated with active use of the smartphone, launching energy-intensive applications or watching videos. So it is logical to assume that charging is «eaten’up» by certain basic functions of the device, the work of which we may not even notice.

Which function discharges a smartphone?

Electronics experts say that the secret enemy of every smartphone owner is the vibration function. It turns out that the vibration motor consumes the most energy compared to all other functions of your gadget. However, we are so used to it that we consider the vibration of the phone an integral attribute of its functioning.

Experts are convinced: as soon as you turn off the vibration function – you will immediately notice that the phone is discharged much more slowly. After all, the vibration signal is turned on much more often than we might think. In modern smartphones, vibration not only notifies you of calls, but also of messages, emails, not to mention notifications from various applications.

How to turn off vibration on your phone?

To prevent your smartphone from vibrating for every occasion, you need to do the following:

1. Open the «Settings» section on your device. It is easy to find in the main menu of the gadget.
2. A list of settings will open, where you need to select the item «Sounds and vibration».
3. Next, go to the sub-item «Vibration during a call» and move the slider there to the left.

After performing these simple steps, you will forget about the need to recharge your gadget every few hours. In particular, you will not have to carry a charger or power bank with you everywhere. However, it is worth remembering that if you turn off the sound signal, you will not hear any notifications. So you will have to constantly check your smartphone so as not to miss an important call or message.
