Hidden Smartphone Tricks You Probably Didn’t Know You Could Use

Try these tips:

  • Turn on Low Power Mode (iPhone) or Battery Saver (Android) to limit background activity.
  • Reduce screen brightness or use Auto-Brightness so the display adjusts to lighting conditions.
  • Disable unnecessary background app refresh and auto-sync options.
  • Close or uninstall apps you rarely use, especially energy-hungry ones like video or social media platforms.

These adjustments can add several extra hours of battery life every day — and help your battery stay healthy longer.

Keep Your Phone Running Smoothly

Just like a car, your phone performs best when maintained regularly. Over time, too many background processes or full storage can slow it down.

Here’s how to give your device a quick “tune-up”:

  1. Clear app cache to remove old, temporary files that clutter memory.
  2. Limit background apps — they consume energy and processing power even when you’re not using them.
  3. Free up storage by deleting unused apps, photos, or duplicate downloads.
  4. Keep software updated. Updates often include security fixes and performance improvements that help your phone run faster and safer.

Doing this once a month can dramatically improve your phone’s speed and lifespan.
