Dealing with your phone’s battery life can be frustrating, especially when you don’t know why it’s draining.
Luckily, Google has some tips and tricks on how to extend battery life with your Pixel phones.
To extend the battery life of your Google Pixel phone, you can set Battery Saver to turn on automatically.
This useful feature conserves battery power by minimizing background activities and visual effects.
You can turn on Battery Saver to activate automatically when your Pixel’s battery reaches 10% or 20%, with notifications alerting you.
You can also manually turn on Battery Saver at any time.
For even greater power savings, you can activate Extreme Battery Saver on your device.
AUTOMATIC BATTERY SAVING FUNCTION
There is a setting for the Battery Saver function to work automatically.
In other words, without having to manually turn it on every time you want to use it.

Google Pixel battery tips – the official guide
Here’s Google’s official advice for Pixel owners on how to boost battery power…
Tip 1: Let your phone close apps you’re not using.
Tip 2: Keep your phone and apps updated. Apps become more battery efficient with each new iteration, resolving bugs and crashes that consume unnecessary power.
Tip 3: Lower the brightness. Save your eyes by lowering your phone’s brightness and saving battery. You can also set your phone to the Dark theme, which turns the background black. It consumes less energy and also relieves some eye strain.
Tip 4: Know which apps and activities consume a lot of energy. Pixel users should be aware of which activities drain their batteries the most. Video calls and games are at the top of the list. Users should also shut down apps they have open but are not using.
