Although smartphones certainly add a lot of convenience to everyday life, the batteries on these devices don’t last very long. Luckily, there are some tricks you can use to keep your phone charged longer than others. The best advice is to limit browsing the web or using mobile apps until you’re in a place with internet access. While keeping your Wi-Fi function on when you’re not using the internet can drain the battery life on some phones, relying primarily on Wi-Fi when you are online will keep your phone going strong for hours.

You already know that you don't need to be in a place with high-speed internet to access the web from your smartphone. That’s what data plans are for, after all. The problem is that using your data to get online isn’t always a good idea unless you have no other option. You could risk going over your data plan, which will result in higher bills at the end of the month.

On top of that, though, using your data when you want internet access will drain the battery on your phone much more quickly than if you were to use Wi-Fi.

As such, you should get in touch with a local internet provider and ask them about setting up a high-speed internet connection in your home or office. In the meantime, it's also a good idea to try not to use your phone for the internet until you’re in a spot with a strong Wi-Fi network you can connect to. Doing so could drain your battery a lot more quickly if the connection frequently drops.
