When we acquire a device we always pay attention to details such as its battery life, but as we begin to use them we forget all these details and we are not aware that depending on the tools we use, consumption may vary. For that reason today we present to you the applications that consume more battery and data so that you keep it in mind and can improve the performance of your smartphone or tablet quickly and easily.
The apps that consume the most battery
We start with the applications that consume the most battery and considerably reduce the autonomy of our device. It is important to pay attention to this section since currently batteries have not managed to grow sufficiently with respect to the evolution of portable devices, which means that we have devices that consume a lot of energy but we do not have sufficiently powerful reserve sources (and adapted to our pockets) or that allow us to increase autonomy considerably.
But let's get to the topic at hand, and that is that there are some functionalities and tools that consume excess battery in our devices, which we are going to reveal below so that you have an idea of what you can do to extend the time between recharge and recharge.
We begin by Google Search, an essential application but one that wins the gold medal by becoming the tool that consumes the most battery on our smartphones and tablets. However Facebook follows him very closely as WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger y YouTube.
It is a little below Twitter, mail servers, Hotmail and with a considerable reduction but within the 10 programs that consume the most battery, we close the list with gmail y Yahoo Mail.
The applications that consume the most data
On the other hand, there is the data, that is, how many megabytes each application consumes, and in this sense we also have a very interesting classification carried out by Alcatel.
In this respect, Facebook consumes 1 MB per minute just by browsing through your wall, but if we have activated the automatic video playback This amount amounts to up to 4 MB per minute. Just by starting the application we will already be consuming 0,4 MB.
As for the Instagram The study is based on the use of the application three times a day since it is estimated that this is the average use for most users. In this case we would be talking about a consumption of around 40 MB per day, but if we watch videos every 15 seconds we will consume another 10 MB extra.
Spotify It is also among the three applications that consume more data on Android with a consumption of 3 MB for each song played in low quality, rising to 9,6 MB if we use a Spotify Premium account.
From this study we can draw the conclusion that one of the applications that most undermine both the autonomy and data of our device is Facebook, being crowned the most harmful in this sense.
