Did you know that closing apps on your phone DRAINS your battery instead of saving it?! tech stem
AI Summary
This video from Tiff In Tech discusses the common misconception that closing apps on your phone saves battery life. Instead, the video explains that swiping away apps doesn’t actually fully close them on modern iPhones and Androids. Both Apple and Android indicate that background apps are effectively frozen and do not consume system resources. Manually closing apps can actually drain more battery as the entire app has to reload when reopened. The analogy used is that it’s similar to turning off your car at every red light—while it feels efficient, it actually isn’t. The video emphasizes that letting your phone idle is the better option unless an app is misbehaving.
