Morpheus' Kingdom: A simple feature will help your smartphone keep a battery charge
On the Samsung phones, the list contains applications that are translated into a deep sleep, which prevents their work in the background and consumption of smartphone resources, especially the battery. Applications that are rarely used can be strongly discharged by the battery. They should be added to this list. As soon as the application is on the list, its background activity automatically stops, and it becomes active only when it is opened.
But he again goes into sleep mode, as soon as they cease to use. Other manufacturers offer a similar function, although it may not be in the list format. Users will have to manually turn off the background activity for individual applications. As soon as it is disabled, the messages from the applications will stop coming. Also, such applications will cease to be updated automatically, and at the subsequent opening of their download may take more time.
If certain programs are rarely used, Samsung smartphones automatically add them to the list of applications for deep sleep. If the user wants to add apps manually, you need to do the following: go to "Settings" - "Battery" - "Background Use Restriction" - Click on "Deep Sleep applications" to open the list. Then you need to press the "+" icon in the upper right corner, select the applications, indicating the mugs next to them, click "Add" in the lower right corner.
Applications added by manual will appear in the "User added" section, and those that are automatically added by the phone will be listed in the "added" category. On Google Pixel phones, you will need to manually disconnect the background activity for each application. To do this, go to "Settings", then find the battery settings and click "Using the Battery".
Then find and touch the application for which you want to disconnect the background activity, and disconnect the switch next to "Allow the background activity". For smartphone owners, the instructions may differ from other manufacturers, but they will be able to find this parameter either in the battery settings or in the application information.
Although adding an application to the list of applications for deep sleep can extend the battery life, there is a risk of missing important notifications from these applications. Remove the programs from the list easy: "Settings" - "Battery" - "Restriction on the background use" - "Applications for deep sleep" - press three vertical dots in the upper right corner - note the circles next to the applications you want to delete and then press "Remove".
Other phones will need to turn on the background activity for individual applications in the settings in the same way as it is switched off. In addition to deep sleep applications, the background use contains several other settings that can help manage the cost of Samsung's smartphone battery. You can turn on the switch next to "Translate unused applications into sleep". In addition, there is a list of "sleeping applications".
Programs that are there can sometimes work in the background, which allows you to receive notifications, albeit with a slight delay. If the user does not want to miss notifications at all, he can add annex to the list "Apps that never go into automatic sleep". This guarantees that they will always remain active in the background, but can consume more battery charge. These settings may not be available on phones from other manufacturers.
