charge your phone

[Tsutarja]

so how often do you guys charge your phone? is it nightly? when it hits a certain percentage?

 

[Nah]

Nearly every day. Usually don't like to let it drop to 20% or less.

 

[tokyodrift]

every night before bed unless i have to charge it before then.

 

[Fleurdelis]

i only charge it when it is at 0%

 

[FlameChrome]

usually charge it the night before the school day, due to it can be fully charged during school and i can do stuff on it without worrying about battery life

 

[Sylphiel]

Either 20% or if I know I'm going to be out and want to make sure I have enough of a charge. Usually the former though because I tend to set my phone aside and forget about it for a bit.

 

[Auticorn]

I usually charge mine every other day. It depends on how much I've been using it at times. I like to keep it at 100% a lot because if I go out and stuff without it being fully charged, it has a tendency to die faster. I also charge it in the car a lot if it's not fully charged.

All the damn time. Really need to get a new battery installed...

 

[mishy.]

My battery isn't so great anymore either so it's every night (unless I'm off the next day) and depending on how often it's used during the day I have to charge it a bit midday. On my days off it varies on whether or not I charged it the night before and if I'm doing anything/bothered touching my phone, etc etc.

I try to charge it every night. I don't like it when it drops below 60% and I'd rather avoid that if at all possible.

 

[Juno]

I charge it every night, but when I'm at work I also just leave it plugged in so when I leave my phone will be at full charge again. Is that bad? I heard something sometime a long while ago you shouldn't overcharge the battery, but I don't know if that was with a different type of battery.

 

[Kitty]

I charge it every night and when it reaches down to 15% :')

Also @Juno I've heard about it and kinda..? I've left my phone at full charge only to have it rly hot the next time I touch it. Not completely sure tho

 

[Sheep]

I guess once it hits 70% or so? Seeing the battery get any lower bothers me. :'< dk if it's better to let the battery die entirely from time to time but ya

It is indeed true, that's how my girlfriend destroyed the battery on my phone.

I charge it overnight and... honestly, once or twice a day in addition to that. I tend to mindlessly grind in mobage on the side while I do whatever it is I'm doing during the day, and it runs the battery down pretty quickly. If I notice it's dipped below 40%, I'll just swap my laptop charger to my phone for half an hour and it's usually good to go for a few more hours.

 

[Brendino]

One of the first things that I do when I get home from work everyday is to go and charge my phone if it's anything less than 70%. I've got a wireless charger, so anytime I'm not using my phone I put it on there, so that pretty much anytime I'm at home, my phone is always at 90%+ battery. The only time I charge my phone overnight is if I see it drop below 60%, and I know I've got to go to work first thing in the morning.

I'm always so on top of charging my phone, that in the year and a half I've had it, I've probably let it drop below 20% only once or twice.

 

[Tsutarja]

Usually i try to charge mine every night when I get to bed, but some nights I do not plug it in as there is often not times where I need to.

 

[Yue Han]

I guess when it's around 50/60% is when I like to start charging it. I never leave it charging overnight because I don't want to kill the battery if it's already got to 100%.

 

[Drayton]

I charge when the battery hits 20% or below and I often times leave it overnight so it be fully full in the morning

 

[Percy]

i always charge it whenever i get the chance / or / when it dips around 30% since my phone has aged and the battery is hitting the dirt, too :(
