Clean Master Tips (Garlic) for Preserving Battery Life on Android Smartphones

• Disable automatic time zones/time and the clock manually otherwise your device wil constantly be requesting location/time data and its almost entirely unnecessary.
• Reduce the push frequency of email/weather/social media.
• Disable wi-fi/data while playing offline games which present ads, for many apps they will be unable to push you ads during gameplay without a connection.
• Try to charge the battery before it falls below 20%, it's not good to run them completely dry.
• Use the official chargers for your devices, an aftermarket charger may not charge at the correct voltage or have other deficiencies.
• Charging via a power outlet is often times much more effective than charging via USB.
• When you are done with an app try to actually shut it down instead of pushing it to run in the background.
• Try to avoid playing graphically intense games while charging.
• Try to run a full charge from around 20% to full at least once a month.
• Disable giving location based information to your apps unless necessary (i.e. Maps, Dating, etc.)
• Turn off your GPS whenever not needed.
• Reduce screen brightness.
• Avoid leaving your phone plugged in once fully charged.
