Google said on its website: “You can take several actions to extend your device’s battery life and make a charge last longer.”

Under the “Fix battery problems that won’t go away” section, you’ll find four helpful steps.

The first is simply restarting or rebooting your Android phone.

Google said: “On most phones, press your phone’s power button for about 30 seconds, or until your phone restarts.”

You might need to tap Restart on your screen.

If that doesn’t work, Google suggests checking your Android device for updates.

You will be able to find these under Settings.

On most devices, you go to the Systems section and click on System update.

It’s advisable to have automatic updates switched on.

Thirdly, Google said checking for any app updates could help improve battery problems.

Go to the Google Play Store app and click on your profile.

Then select Manage apps & devices and update apps that need it.

Finally, Google suggested resetting to factory settings as a last-resort solution to your battery problems.

It warned: “A factory data reset will remove all data from your phone. 

“While any data stored in your Google Account will be restored, all apps and their associated data will be uninstalled.

“Before you perform a factory data reset, we recommend backing up your phone.”

Google also noted that the length of your battery life can depend on the Android device you have.

It added: “Get help with your specific device on your manufacturer’s support site.”
