There is a list of applications that destroy the battery of your smartphone every day.

Yurent Ilya Kazakov, technical director of the MTS Powerbank service, spoke about the most energy-consuming programs.

In a conversation with Gazeta.Ru , the expert warned that one of the reasons for a smartphone's battery draining quickly is "heavy" applications that run in the background.

At the top of this ranking are mobile social networking applications.

Even in the background, they “eat” Internet traffic and energy, playing audio and video files, displaying notifications, geolocation, microphone, cameras, etc.

The expert cited VK, Bumble, Snapchat as examples. According to him, these applications "do not spare smartphone batteries." Messengers, including Telegram, are not far behind.

Mobile games are another category that mercilessly kills the phone battery. Such applications load the processor and graphics services to the maximum.

Various auxiliary services also consume energy. First of all, we are talking about those that use GPS and the Internet at the same time (Google Maps, Yandex. Maps, 2GIS).

Another category consists of applications for viewing video content (YouTube, Twitch, Netflix).
