Lithium Battery Charging Terminology: Are Battery management apps Useful?

Basically, all battery doctor, butler applications are from the software to optimize the phone to save electricity, remind, more meaning is auxiliary. First, we'll start with the "three-step charging" feature from battery management apps. So-called "three-stage charging" includes quick charging, continuous charging and trickle charging; The battery management app doesn't actually change the charging mode of the phone's lithium-ion battery, but rather acts as a kind of notification, time alert.


Generally speaking, the current of lithium battery in charge will show two stages of obvious change, the initial charge current is large, then gradually reduced until full. So-called "trickle charging," which involves charging the phone for a second after charging it, has been debated as to whether it actually works. If you think it's better to charge more, you can calculate your own time without using a battery management app, because the app can't change the charging IC, just as a theoretical form of reminder.


Second, battery management apps often have a "deep charge and discharge" reminder mode, suggesting that you fully discharge and charge your phone once a month or so, which actually makes sense. For the iPhone, for example, On its website, Apple recommends that users have an in-depth recharge once a month to keep the lithium battery alive and extend its life. Of course, battery management is just a reminder here.


As for the so-called "power saving mode," which basically works by turning down the screen brightness and turning off the data network, some Android apps also have the ability to slow down the processor's frequency, which users can adjust in their Settings, but battery management apps are more silly.


In addition, the battery app monitors hardware and software power consumption to determine whether the phone is running malicious apps in the background (mainly Android), which can also be found in the phone's Settings.


In summary, battery management apps do not have the ability to change the phone's hardware, but rather help users improve their battery life through software optimization and reminders. The most effective way to extend the life of your phone without affecting its use is to have a portable power supply.
