Little-known features of your smartphone that you may not know about

Eye strain, headaches, disrupted sleep… Spending too much time in front of screens is not without consequences. Fortunately, the solution is both aesthetic and effective: activate dark mode. This option, available on most smartphones and apps, reduces glare, especially in the evening, while saving your battery (ideal for OLED screens). And to go further: try the  20-20-20 rule .  Every 20 minutes, look at an object about 10 meters away for 20 seconds.  Your eyes will thank you!

Gain autonomy without changing chargers

Does your battery  seem to drain quickly  even though you’re not using it that much? It could be that your smartphone is running at full speed behind the scenes. To help it breathe:

  • Activate power saving mode;
  • Reduce the brightness or opt for the automatic function;
  • Close energy-consuming apps ( especially social networks );
  • Turn off background app refresh.

These simple actions can  significantly extend battery life , especially when traveling.  Ideal  when you don’t have a power outlet handy!

A faster smartphone without changing models

Is your phone slow? Before you think about replacing it, try these tips:

  • Clear the app cache: a major cleanup that improves performance;
  • Limit background applications that consume large resources;
  • Free up space by deleting blurry photos and forgotten apps;
  • Keep your apps and system up to date: Updates often fix slowdowns.

A little maintenance , and your smartphone will be given a new lease of life. Sometimes, it only takes a little to boost it!
