Description

BatteryFu (pronounced Battery-Foo, like in Kung-Fu) extends battery life (and lowers data usage) by changing always-on mobile/wifi data to periodic sync (meaning it disables your mobile data and/or Wifi, then checks your accounts every X minutes). This also provides a way to manage your data usage.

BatteryFu is also great for tablet use to keep accounts sync'd even when the tablet is in sleep/standby. Normally accounts won't sync due to WiFi going to sleep (see "WiFi sleep policy").

*NOTE*: BatteryFu requires root on Android 5+ to toggle mobile data.

BatteryFu is open source software.

Features:
* Lean and fast (see download size!)
* Work for all networks (CDMA/GSM) from Gingerbread up
* Notification icon: lets you switch modes even while inside another app.
* Data while screen is on, with screen off delay
* Data while charger is plugged in
* Pre-defined modes: Travel mode, Online mode, Offline mode, Night mode, etc.
* BatteryMinder shows battery stats, like usage during screen off, kernel wakelocks, etc.
* 3rd party app support (using intents) so that you can control BatteryFu from your own app.
* Open source

Tips for even better battery life:
* Select "2g networks only" in Android settings
* Turn off "Network notification" under Wifi settings
* Uninstall apps if your phone is running out of RAM (e.g. slow to get to homescreen or switch apps)
* If your battery life is out of control, reset phone to factory defaults, install BatteryFu and be amazed! Then slowly re-install some apps
* Do not put apps on SD card if they run in the background. SD card access drains battery.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Saves my battery better than any other....... wow nearly doubled my battery life
5 ★Super apps
5 ★Innovative and impressively powerful.
4 ★It helped save my battery keep it up
4 ★a very good no nonsense which does what it says but lacks whitelisting of apps. Internet radio won't work or other similar streaming apps won't work when the screen is off. other similar battery saver apps have this feature and this app lacks only this feature. very light weight and friendly to ram memory.
5 ★like juice defender (which I paid for but didn't work) except it's so small. only thing is I had to install wifi fixer because wifi wouldn't resume automatically on screen unlock, similar to jd
5 ★I have been looking for something like this for ages but missed it because I was searching under WiFi for a toggling device. This app is totally user configurable and you can choose whether or not to toggle mobile data, which I would not want to do unless I had an unlimited data plan. You can choose to have an icon on the notification bar and detailed status information is also given in the notification area, which is useful. The app is only a few kilobytes and uses virtually no power itself. If you use BatteryFU's own menu (main screen) to control your WiFi, you will not create any conflicts with scheduled events. A 2-star reviewer has not realised this! It works perfectly and is completely reliable. Also works well on my wife's Sony Xperia. BatteryFU is better than some similar paid-for apps, is free and I have not seen any adverts so a big thank you to the developer. EXCELLENT
4 ★This is a really good app, and a real batterysaver. The only thing missing is a choice to disable batteryfu when clicking on the notification bar. Now we have the option to set "Travel" or "Always off". Hoping for an option to be "Always on" as well. You have to enter the application and disable the app to do this.
3 ★As far as I can see it doesn't automatically flip into night mode properly. At least the battery left after a night unplugged is different if you manually select night mode as to when you leave it in standard to do its own thing. Either way, it doesn't seem to do a particularly good job of saving that battery compared to turned wifi off entirely. If the wifi is turned on only a fraction of the time, then much more should be left available. Needs work.
5 ★Best of its kind. A battery saver that has no equal. This dev has raised the bar and is miles ahead of the wannabe competition with their high priced bloat ware. Bravo & thanks.
1 ★Does not re-enable data after night mode. SGS3.
5 ★Don't move to card or it stops. Seems to work,unlike others.
