Welcome, in front of me is a Nokia G21 and today I'll show you how we can enable the
0:13
power saving mode. So to get started you want to pull down your notification panel like so, come on, there
0:23
we go, like so, expand it and look for the toggle for me, it's right over here
0:28
Now it is greyed out so let me quickly fix that by unplugging my device because I am
0:32
charging it, there we go. So my battery is quite low, right now at 28% so let's go back to it, we can tap on the
0:40
toggle, as you can see it gives us a pop-up, turn on battery saver, battery saver will
0:46
restrict power consumption activities, background apps, app activities, visual effects, gestures, touch sounds, vibrations, etc. automatically to save power
1:00
So let's just proceed by tapping on OK. Now it did drop the brightness a little bit as you probably just realized, so that's one
1:07
of the things. Now I'll mention one more thing that it will do, I'm also going to plug it in back to charging
1:14
what it does when charging your device or plugging it to charge, it automatically turns
1:21
off the power saving mode as you just see right here. But going back to the power saving mode, once enabled, apart from what it said, I'm going
1:31
to quickly go into explaining it, so it basically terminates background activities like apps
1:36
that are running in the background, even though we can see a bunch of them, they are all at
1:42
the moment kind of turned off so if I would open them up, they should technically need
1:46
to reload, for some reason they didn't, maybe because I'm charging. So anyway, that's one of the things
1:52
Number two would be it turns off Wi-Fi and mobile data when the device is in sleep mode
2:00
This is considered a sleep mode, just so you know. And because of that, any kind of application that will require internet connection like
2:06
Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, and so on, will not give you any kind of messages
2:13
that someone might have sent to you when the power saving mode is enabled and when you're
2:18
not using the device. Now once you wake up the device again, so like this, it will reconnect to Wi-Fi and
2:26
mobile data, one or both of them, and then sync up whatever it was missing
2:30
So if you're wondering why you're not getting any kind of messages that are internet-based
2:35
that's basically why. And that's basically probably one of the more important things that I can say about the
2:43
power saving mode. Now one last thing for some people that might be interested, you have the option right here
2:51
to change the brightness. Now power saving mode did change the brightness just a little bit by decreasing it just a
2:58
tiny bit, but you can actually utilize that if, for instance, you're using the phone at
3:03
night, you can just drop it halfway, and I know it's barely visible right now, but dropping
3:08
the brightness does significantly increase your battery life. So you might want to utilize that more over the actual power saving mode, just because
3:18
the display brightness has a better or bigger effect on your battery life rather than the
3:23
actual toggle right here. But anyway, that being said, if you found this very helpful, don't forget to hit like
