50 Easy Everyday Habits That Internet Users Swear By

At the end of the day, when your phone battery gets very low, you may not yet be done using it. Whether you’re mindlessly scrolling through social media or catching up with a buddy, you’re willing to sit tethered to the wall while your phone charges. Tech experts agree this isn’t good for your phone.

Charging and using your phone at the same time puts undue stress on its battery. If you leave it alone when it’s charging, your battery is likely to have a longer, more productive life. So, at the end of the day, plug it in and walk away. Even better, put it in airplane mode so your phone can get a good night’s rest along with you.
