Android App Review - Data/Wifi Idling Manager
Friday, January 27, 2017
Battery saving and performance boosting are a land of snake oil and half solutions. It truly is difficult to find an application that actually saves you battery and improves performance since most battery saver measures are manual, including turning the brightness on your screen down, turning of mobile data when you’re not using it, and other tried and true methods. In many cases, it’s just a task manager with a battery saver name that can actually use more battery life than it’ll ever actually save. Not with the app we will review today.
