Are you struggling to save battery life on Android device?
All of us hates frequent charging. Battery backup always matters now when we plan to buy our new smartphone.
Lots of Android smartphones are out there in the market with good battery backup but unfortunately, they don’t have endless battery life. So here are some simple hacks to save battery life on your Android devices.
So why we have to plug in our Android smartphones into power socket every day?
A number of factors have conspired to reduce gadget endurance over the past several years. Thinner designs with less room for batteries, larger and brighter screens, faster quad-core processors, more software that runs in the background, and power-hungry GPS radios all share responsibility. The move from 3G to 4G networks a few years ago—particularly of the LTE variety—has also taken its toll.

Save Battery Life On Android Devices :

Here are the golden tips to extend your Android handset’s battery life :

1. Black Wallpaper Save Battery Life

Yes, its strange but true,  black wallpaper can save battery life of your Android smartphone.
Why black wallpaper? — Because most smartphones in the market AMOLED screen which only illuminate the colored pixels. And black pixels are unlit, so the more black pixels you have, or the more darker pixels, the less power is needed to light them up.

2. Find Out Who Drains your Battery

This method is important, just find the culprit who is responsible for draining your battery.
You can do it by going to “Settings > Battery“.
This option will breakdown of what’s consuming your phone’s battery. Applications and features will display in a descending list of battery hogs. If you find an application which you barely use or a feature you never use, you’ll want to uninstall the app or turn off the feature.

3. Home Screen Widgets and Live Wallpaper are Bad

Lots of people are using home screen widgets on their smartphones, they think it will ease up their work. But it makes adverse effect on battery life. Since widgets function took more RAM and also background process will fasten draining of your battery. If you really want to save your battery life avoid adding widgets to the home screen.
Yes, live wallpapers give life to your smartphone home screen. But don’t forget it’s using a lot of battery life because live wallpapers make screen always active and this consumes battery.  So go for regular still images as wallpapers or as we already said use black wallpapers and save battery life.

4. Turn Off Automatic Brightness

Automatic Brightness — sounds useful feature, but don’t go for it.
Actually, automatic brightness is usually way brighter than you really need. It’s better to manually set the brightness to a level that is low but comfortable, and bump it up when necessary. This is one of the best ways to save battery life because the screens are one of the biggest battery suckers.

5. Control Apps Refresh Frequency

Next method is controlling refresh frequency of some apps. Apps checking for new emails and other data in the background updates frequently to fetch new information. This frequent background fetching of data will drain your battery fast.
So to disable this just go to “Settings > Accounts” and uncheck Auto-sync data to prevent your Android device from automatically syncing with your Google accounts (and other accounts) in the background. uncheck Auto-sync data to prevent your Android device from automatically syncing with your Google accounts (and other accounts) in the background. And also force off apps that work on background.

6. Shorter Screen Timeout Setting Save Battery Life

Set your display’s screen timeout to as short a time as is practical for you.
Just think, if your screen timeout is set to a minute, it’ll use four times more power than if it were set to 15 seconds. Studies report the average smartphone user turns their smartphone on 150 times a day, so the difference between a long screen timeout and short one soon adds up. Reducing it will help keep your battery running for longer.

7. Switch Off Vibrate

Switch off vibrate. Unless you really need that added awareness, turn off vibration alerts for incoming calls. It actually takes more power to vibrate your phone than it does to ring it.

8. Use Lock Screen Notifications or Widgets

Lock screen notifications or lock screen widgets can also help save battery life. This is because you can see your notifications at a glance without having to turn your whole screen on. This is especially useful if you get lots of notifications that aren’t worth following up on immediately.

9. You don’t Need to be Connected 24/7

You don’t have to be connected to internet 24/7, that will increase your data usage and also drains battery.So use internet when you needed, like turnoff it during your sleep hours and office hours.

10. Only Use Original Batteries

This one is important, use only original batteries – direct from the manufacturer. Saving a few bucks on a battery that might damage your beloved smartphone is a poor choice indeed, and may also deliver sub-standard battery performance.
These are some few tips to save battery life of your Android smartphone. If you know some other method to sava battery life do comment below.

Google released a keyboard app for the iPhone some months back called Gboard, and everyone was wondering if it would come to Android. Well, now it has as the v6.0 update to Google Keyboard. It's not only a name change, though. There are a few important new features, including a search shortcut and true multi-language support.
The update is still rolling out, and Google has not yet posted an official changelog. Here's what we've spotted so far.
UPDATE: Some other new stuff we’re finding…
  • You can permanently pin a number row.
  • “Gesture” typing has been renamed to “Glide” typing.
  • Pixel phones have 2 special themes with blue accents to match their UI, though that could have been there from day 1 and I just never noticed.
  • Again, you can enabled the G button to always show, or allow for there to be a menu with additional options.
  • Gboard should be able to “suggest” Search queries as you type, as well, though we have yet to get that to work.

It's not the worst thing that can happen to your smartphone, but if you have a ton of duplicate contacts it can be really inconvenient when you try to communicate with your friends and family, probably sending a message or trying to reach an old number. Let alone trying to dial in with the help of Google's voice assistant. The good news is that these can be easily managed and organized.

From your phone

Android's stock phone app should be the first thing to try. Go to your Contacts -- we tried this on LG and Samsung phones, but depending on your phone's brand it can be a little different -- on the app, tap the Menu button > Manage Contacts > then select Merge. A screen with all repeated contacts will show up, so you can confirm which you want to merge one by one.

From your desktop browser / Google Contacts

A second method is made available from your Google Account. Log in to your Gmail Account and then go to your Contacts (or enter directly from this link). On the right sidebar there's a "Duplicates" option, which will show a list with all the candidates to be merged. Select "Merge" on each and you're done.

An additional word of caution

The two alternatives above are easy and accessible default options that Google provides to merge contacts. Unless you have thousands of contacts and hundreds of duplicates, they should serve you well. But an additional word of caution. There are a ton of "free" apps on the Play Store to merge contacts, however even if some of those promise to automatically merge with one click, we wouldn't compromise on security by letting a third-party ask for Google account credentials solely for this purpose.
