Tech Tips: If you do these five things, the phone's battery will definitely get damaged, and the phone may even catch fire!

Nowadays, people have started falling in love with smartphones more than themselves and due to this love, not only the battery of the phone is getting spoiled but also the health is also getting spoiled. Even though the phone's battery capacity is high, some of your bad habits can quickly damage the battery. Even the phone's battery may explode. Let us know which bad habits regarding smartphone batteries you should give up today. 

Overcharging

Charging the phone for a long time puts pressure on its battery. Therefore, it is better to remove the charger once the battery is charged. Experts also recommend charging the battery up to 95 per cent instead of charging it 100 per cent. At the same time, frequent charging of the battery should also be avoided.

Battery overheating

Exposing the battery to excessive heat can increase its pressure and reduce its lifespan. This is so dangerous that it can even cause battery fire. At the same time, during fast charging, the battery gets overheated, which can reduce its lifespan.

Use higher watt charger

To charge the phone quickly, we often think of using a charger with a higher volt. But this can also be quite dangerous. This puts stress on the battery and can cause damage. Therefore, use only chargers designed for the specific phone.

Running until the battery is completely drained

Running the battery until it is completely drained may reduce its lifespan. It is better that you keep the battery between 20-80%.

Run more apps

Running too many apps can drain the battery quickly, especially when apps keep running in the background. Actually, excessive use of apps creates more performance pressure on the smartphone, which also reduces the battery life. In such a situation, you can close background apps if not needed. 

Set to higher brightness

Increasing the brightness of the phone can drain its battery quickly. In such a situation, you can use the phone in auto brightness mode.

Battery saver app 

Many times battery saver apps increase the battery consumption of the phone. Actually, these apps run continuously in the background which consumes battery even when not needed. Also, running it repeatedly can affect the performance of the phone and increase battery consumption.

Put the phone in the snow

When the phone gets too hot, sometimes the thought of keeping it on ice or in the fridge comes to our mind. But this can harm the phone's battery.
