Diagnose the Drain:
- Check Battery Health: See if your tablet recognizes any battery issues in settings. Low battery health might require replacement.
- Identify Culprits: Open battery usage settings to see which apps are guzzling power. Uninstall rarely used or resource-heavy ones.
Optimize Settings:
- Dim the Display: Lower screen brightness significantly impacts battery life.
- Reduce Connectivity: Turn off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS when not in use.
- Location Services: Limit background location access for most apps.
- Automatic Sync: Disable auto-sync for apps like email or social media. Sync manually at intervals.
- Power Saver Mode: Activate battery saver mode for immediate juice conservation.
- App Management:
- Background App Killers: Close apps running in the background instead of relying on built-in task killers.
- Push Notifications: Limit push notifications for unnecessary apps.
- Update Apps: Outdated apps can drain the battery. Update them regularly.
Bonus Tips:
- Dark Mode: Use dark themes whenever available to further reduce screen power consumption.
- Short Timeouts: Set shorter screen timeout durations to dim the screen quickly when idle.
- Airplane Mode: When on the go and offline, use airplane mode to save battery drastically.
