Review on Battery Saving Apps on Android

While smartphones are considerably getting more advanced, it can seem as though battery life is one of the areas where the improvement is not so great or so frequent. It truly is difficult to find an application that actually saves you battery since most battery saver measures are manual, including turning the brightness on your screen down and turning down the frequency that apps sync data. Which means for many, daily battery usage remains an issue. However, there are a few apps that can help out so let’s check out the best battery saver apps for Android.

Clean Master (Boost & AppLock)

Clean Master is a very well-known Android app supplier and Clean Master (Boost & AppLock) is another very commonly downloaded app. Which means you can expect a very polished and thorough app here. Not to mention, this is another app which comes with a ton of additional features, so as well as helping to keep your battery clean, this one will also help to keep your smartphone clean in general.

Greenify

Greenify is one of the most popular battery saving apps. It identifies apps that wake up your phone more frequently. It can also help keep them from doing that so often. The app also has modern features for Android Nougat and beyond with Aggressive Doze and Doze modes. This app is useful for both root and non-root devices. However, you'll get more functionality and power with root. All of the features are free. There is an optional donate version that runs for ₹ 50 if you want to support development.

360 Battery Plus

Most of the apps that are designed to improve battery life take a ‘monitoring’ approach and 360 Battery is no different. This one looks to monitor what is happening on your smartphone and provide information back to you so you can better control the levels of battery usage and consumption. This one also comes loaded with other present modes which you can apply and let the app do all the work – including instantly killing battery-thirsty apps before they even launch in the background.

ShutApp – Real Battery Saver

Closing out the list today is an app which takes a much simpler approach to improving battery life. As the name suggests, ShutApp is all about the shutting down of apps as a way to prolong the battery. So whether this is shutting down apps which consume a lot of immediate battery or shutting down those which consumer battery over a long period (by running in the background), ShutApp will shut those apps down for you.

GSam Battery Monitor

GSam Battery Monitor is another popular battery saver app. It won't do anything to save you battery life on its own. However, it can provide you with information about the apps draining your battery. You can use that information to improve your own battery life. It can show details on wakelocks, wake time, and even CPU and sensor data. It faced some difficulties with the latest versions of Android. However, there is a root companion that can deliver additional information if you have root. It's pretty good for what it is.

DU Battery Saver – Power Saver

DU Battery Saver seems to be a very popular app among Android users and the Google Play Store listing even states that the app has over 400 million users. So if you would like an app which has been tried and tested by a fairly sizeable number of users, then this might be the one to go for. As well as the various tweaks to improve battery life (including a one-click option and pre-set modes), this one also comes with a ‘phone cooler’ feature for added hardware protection.
