Same here! I wish there was a notification when it gets turned off. That would save us from the hassle.

You can actually set up shortcuts to quickly access power saving modes! Just swipe down from the top and tap on the battery icon to toggle it. So much easier!

Anyone else feel like the battery percentage drops faster with Adaptive Power Saving on? Sometimes it feels like a trick, but I still use it to manage my battery life.
Haha, I get that! It’s like watching a magic show, but the trick is losing battery instead of gaining time! 
I think the battery drop is due to throttling. It sacrifices some performance for battery savings, which might lead to that feeling. Just a trade-off we have to accept.
That makes sense. But if it keeps my phone from dying on long days, I’m all for it!
I’ve had times when it unexpectedly shuts off. Not sure why, but it’s been frustrating. Has anyone found a consistent solution for that?
Yes, I’ve experienced that too. I recommend checking for software updates regularly. Sometimes bugs can cause these issues.
Good tip! I’ll keep a lookout for those updates; maybe that’ll fix my issues.
Adaptive Power Saving adjusts your settings based on how you use your phone. To optimize performance, try combining it with Battery Saver mode and lowering screen brightness. It really makes a difference!
I tried that too! Also, disabling background app activity for less used apps really helps extend battery life.
I’ve noticed that when I enable Adaptive Power Saving, my phone saves a lot of juice even when I’m multitasking! Just make sure to check the apps that use the most power.

Absolutely! Plus, resetting the network settings occasionally helps too since constant searching drains the battery.
I’d recommend toggling off features like GPS when you’re not using them. Pairing that with Adaptive Power Saving should result in a pretty significant battery life improvement.
Wait, does anyone else find it annoying that sometimes Adaptive Power Saving seems to kick in too aggressively? I’d love to hear how others balance it out with their normal usage.
Honestly, I find it helpful but I do check my settings. If my phone’s too slow, I toggle stuff back on!
What I also do is change the screen resolution to HD+ instead of FHD+ when Iam looking to save power for longer periods. It helps!
That’s a great tip! I’ve also heard that reducing the refresh rate can help, anyone tried that?
Yeah, setting it to 60Hz can help! But honestly, I think Samsung should make this feature more intuitive. Anyone else agree?
Hah! Yes! Sometimes I feel like I need a PhD just to save battery! But humor aside, using dark mode can enhance the effects of Adaptive Power Saving too.
