I know that ye me hearties would be much interested on this one like I was when I first learned about it. The app that we will talk about today is called Battery Doctor (Power Saver) by Cheetah Mobile Inc. (NYSE: CMCM). I know that many of ye buckos have the problem of your phone running out of battery life fast. ‘Tis why I knew I had to share this with ye. So batten down the hatches and let’s start.
Simple User Interface
Battery Doctor has a basic user interface. With a few use and a little exploration, you’ll get used to it quickly. It’s no rocket science. Just a tap here and there and you would be able to access its options and features. The background is black, which makes it look neat. The options and their icons can be seen clearly because of the nice contrast on the background. There are no unnecessary graphics, which it doesn’t need anyways, considering its main function of helping you save battery.
Convenient to Use
This app provides convenience, especially for those who find it inconvenient to browse on the different settings of the phone, which concerns saving battery power. The features that has to do with saving energy of your mobile device are listed in one window, which is convenient as you don’t have to go from one area to another. These include WiFi, brightness and data usage. Turning these features on and off, and making adjustments can be done on the app itself too. While it gives you the option to check the running apps and manually close them by yourself, it’s nice that it has a one tap option to optimize your battery usage, which will automatically close apps running in the background that use the most power.
It’s Free
There are paid apps that promise to optimize your battery life. While they may deliver what they were designed to do, you need to said some cash. If your main concern is to enhance your battery life and you don’t want to spend money, you may want to consider this app since it’s free.

The Verdict
