3. Home Screen

Another most used section in a smartphone is the Home Screen. We all have the habit of putting all our most used applications on the Home Screen for east access. This is a huge mistake. Nothing drains the battery faster than having the home screen filled with icons. So you should refrain from keeping the Facebook, Twitter Live Feeds widgets on the main screen.

Another way to reduce the battery drainage is to activate the “calls only” profile which means that it would alert you when you get calls and not keep beeping as updates come on your mail, Facebook profile or Twitter account.

Another battery drainer is the animated wallpaper that we love having on our screen. Having animated wallpapers does make our phone exciting but remember it is being done at the cost of battery life; this is because even when the display light is out the animation in the wallpaper still works in the background.
