Battery Saver for FydeOS devices

Battery Saver helps you get more usage time out of your FydeOS device by adjusting certain settings to conserve power. When enabled, it can:

  • Lower the brightness of your display.
  • Turn off the keyboard backlight (if applicable).
  • Activate the Browser’s built-in Energy Saver mode.
  • Turn on Android Battery Saver when you’re using Android applications. (Learn more about managing Android battery settings).
  • Reduce CPU performance to lower power consumption.

Turning Battery Saver On or Off

  1. On your FydeOS device, click the battery icon located in the bottom-right corner of the screen (the status area).
  2. Navigate to Settings > System Preferences > Power.
  3. Under the “Power” section, find the Battery Saver option and toggle it on or off.

Important Notes:

  • Battery Saver cannot be active while your FydeOS device is plugged in and charging.
  • If you haven’t manually turned Battery Saver on, it will automatically enable itself when the battery level on your FydeOS device becomes low. A notification will appear to inform you.
    • You can disable the automatically activated Battery Saver directly from the notification by clicking Turn off.
    • Alternatively, you can go back to the Power page within Settings and toggle Battery Saver off there.
    • Connecting your FydeOS device to a charger will automatically deactivate Battery Saver.
  • You can easily tell if Battery Saver is active by looking for these indicators:
    • The battery icon in the status area will display a yellow ”+” symbol.
    • When you open the Quick Settings panel, the battery icon will be highlighted with a yellow circle containing a ”+” symbol.
