During the summer, mobile phones are widely used because you tend to travel more, spend more time outdoors, and take a lot of photos. Therefore, we use much more battery, data usage and memory. 

For all these reasons, here are a series of tips that you can put into practice during the summer:

How to save data usage?

There are many actions that we can take to surf the Internet for the whole month.

We suggest not having your mobile data activated constantly because, sometimes, even though you think you are connected to a wifi network, you are actually using your data. 

You should avoid playing music or videos if you are using your data. If you absolutely must watch a video, you can reduce its quality and therefore also reduce the megabytes you use. We also recommend planning ahead and downloading the content you want to watch onto your device while you are connected to a wifi network so that you can enjoy it at a later time. 

Additionally, you can take advantage of the moments when you are connected to wifi to download or send videos or images.

How to extend the battery life?

Nowadays, it is not easy to change a phone’s battery if it is damaged because most phones have an integrated battery and to change it, you have to go to a specialized store. It is best to know how to take care of it.

It is advisable to use the charger that comes with the mobile. If not, it’s likely your phone will not charge as fast or that the battery could be damaged.

In addition, you should not let the phone run out of battery or charge it up to 100%. It is also advisable to have Bluetooth functions and location services disabled if you are not going to use them.

Moreover, having the vibration mode activated uses up a lot of battery, so it is best to disable the vibration, especially when the phone is on silent. 

Another factor that influences the battery is temperature. You have to avoid extreme heat or cold.

As for applications, it is preferable to optimize them because some of them have optimized consumption.  It is advisable to deactivate all those that are on in the background.

How to free memory space?

There are multiple options for optimising storage:

The first thing you must do is get rid of applications that you do not use. It is very common to have apps that serve no purpose in your daily activities. . 

In addition, you can eliminate pre-installed applications, since it is very likely that you will never use them.

Another option is to download the photos that you are taking to your computer. In addition to this, when you download them, you can organise the photos and delete any you don’t want. 

Alternatively, you can store all your content in the cloud. This way, you can save everything you want and your phone will not run out of space. For example, you can use Google Photos to store images and videos or Google Drive for any type of documents.

Moreover, you can use the “lite” versions of the applications. Some technology companies,such as Facebook, have developed them in order to save stored data. 

Finally, we recommend clearing the cache and cookies. This way, you will avoid storing information that takes up space on our device.

If you follow all these tips you can relax, since you will have your device available and working properly whenever we want. Therefore, it is a good time to remind you  that you can make use of the Yudonpay app. It allows you to add countless loyalty cards, accumulate points and save money.
