Samsung Galaxy Charging Situations

Every Android user usually has a battery problem with their smartphone. Phone batteries gradually decay with repeated charging and eventually discharge more quickly than when they were first purchased. But, if you’re constantly on the run, you wouldn’t want to occasionally deal with a dead phone, would you?

What is battery health?

Simply said, a battery’s health is determined by how much it has deteriorated over the course of each charge cycle. Let’s pretend your Android phone has a 4500mAh battery to put things in perspective.

When the phone is fully charged, the battery will hold 4500mAh in perfect health, however, with frequent charging, the battery’s health may only be 95%.

In that situation, the battery’s degradation over time will prevent your phone from getting the entire 4500mAh capacity out of it, even while it is fully charged. The battery life is inversely correlated with battery health.

This means that a phone with a low battery life will lose power more quickly and may also experience problems like overheating while in use.

You’re in luck if you use a Samsung device! The Samsung Members app is already pre-installed on your device, making it simple for you to monitor the condition of your battery. This is how:

  1. Scroll down to the Get Help menu in the Samsung Members app, open it, and select it.
  2. Select the Interactive checks option from the menu that appears.
  3. Choose Battery from the list of choices to view the strength, capacity, and longevity of your phone’s battery.
  4. The health of the battery will be determined by its life (Good, Normal, or Weak).

In order to check the Battery life of your Samsung Galaxy device, visit system Settings > Battery and Device Care > Diagnostics > Battery Status.

WhatsApp to introduce reaction notification feature for status updates

WhatsApp Reaction Notification feature

WhatsApp for Android is rolling out a new beta update, which enhances user interaction with status updates by developing a new reaction notification feature. Users can identify the new beta update through version 2.24.9.29 on Android devices.

Previously, WhatsApp had been working on a quick reaction feature. The latest beta version goes a step further by providing an option to turn off notifications for ‘Like reactions.’ This means users can choose not to be notified every time someone reacts to their status, which could be particularly useful for those who receive many reactions.

This feature is beneficial as it allows users to reduce disruptions by preventing their notification panel from being cluttered with WhatsApp reaction notifications. But for those who prefer to view reactions at their convenience, this update will allow them to do so without the constant alerts.

Moreover, WhatsApp aims to enhance users’ control over their notifications and let them decide how they want to engage with status updates. This update is still under development, so stay tuned more details will be shared as they become available.
