Android phones will soon warn you about apps that are sucking up too much battery juice

Google is implementing a new metric called "excessive partial wake locks" to reduce battery drain on Android devices. This metric identifies user sessions as excessive if an app maintains non-exempt wake locks for over two cumulative hours within a 24-hour period. Apps exceeding a threshold of 5% excessive sessions over 28 days will face penalties starting March 1, 2026. Non-compliant apps may be excluded from prominent discovery surfaces in the Google Play Store and could display a warning label indicating high battery usage. The metric was co-developed with Samsung and is now available through the Android Vitals console for developers to access and make adjustments before the enforcement date.

Google Maps is testing a battery-saving mode you’ve always needed

Google Maps is developing a power-saving mode to address battery drain issues during navigation. This feature, found in version 25.44.03.824313610 for Android, will prioritize essential information like upcoming turns and estimated time of arrival, reducing visual clutter to minimize power consumption. Users can activate this mode easily by pressing the power button during navigation, and it will work for driving, walking, and two-wheeler routes, though not for public transit. The mode operates independently from Android's system-wide battery saver, allowing activation at any time. However, it may not support landscape mode and could transition to a monochrome display, which might affect visibility for certain elements. An official release date is not yet announced, but it is expected to appear in a future beta version.
