    We can try to save as much battery life as possible, but without stopping any applications or without being too serious. If you press down on this, it says, "Optimize battery life." It's going to make some changes to make your battery life longer. There are other changes you can make which are more significant. You can find some videos on this website. Make your choice if you want to turn it On or Off. Just press down on the icon until you have the desired effect.
