Android-Based Battery Saver System: 1) Background/ Problem Statement

The document describes an Android-based battery saver system. The system monitors app usage and battery level, and notifies the user when battery is low and certain apps are consuming significant power. It displays a list of apps ranked by battery usage to help users identify power-hungry apps. When battery level is low, the system triggers an alarm and recommends stopping or closing apps to preserve battery life. The system was developed using Android Studio and monitors the phone itself, without using any backend services.

Android-based Battery Saver System

1) Background/ Problem Statement

There is 70 per cent of people or even more than that use the Android
Operating System in the world. Android Operating System has
groundbreaking features like Mobile Hotspot, Calling, Texting, Gaming,
WIFI, Bluetooth etc. in such small devices that fit in the palm of the
hand.
Because of the battery, it is portable, it can be carried anywhere and it
doesn’t need to be connected continuously to an electric socket like
desktops, TVs, etc. while using it. But still, it needs to be charged at
least once a day. The battery can’t withstand the android applications
for a long-time. Android Operating System uses a lot of resources which
in turn reduces the battery charge too quickly.
There are various ways to enhance power management. One of them is
a battery saver application. To tackle this situation, our android-based
Battery Saver System can help the user to reduce power consumption
slightly.
2) Working of the Project

This System is an innovative Application allowing the System to take


the usage from Build-in classes and put a list in front of the user for
him to review. The List also consists of the applications taking the
battery usage and also determining the battery level.
If the Battery level is low and the consumption of apps is more the
system will trigger an alarm telling the user to force stop or close the
apps. This System uses Android Studio as its front end and doesn’t
use any backend as this type of application doesn’t need one since it
uses the data from the phone itself and projects to the user.
So basically, the system helps the user to refrain certain apps to
consume more battery power and drain it quickly and the user can
take some actions on it.
3) Advantages

- It is easy to maintain.
- It is user-friendly.
- The user gets a list of applications used in a single place.
- The system notifies the user if the battery is low and
indicates which app is using more power.
- The consumption rate is accurate
- Also indicates which app consumes more power.
4) System Description
The system comprises 1 major module with their sub-modules as
follows:
 USER:

 App list
- The user can view a list of applications with the highest
usage application from the top.
 Battery
- The system will display the battery level and status of the
battery.
 App details
- The user can click on the app details to get more details
about it.
 Notification
- It will send a notification if an app is consuming too much
battery.
5) Project Life Cycle

The waterfall model is a classical model used in the system


development life cycle to create a system with a linear and sequential
approach. It is termed a waterfall because the model develops
systematically from one phase to another in a downward fashion. The
waterfall approach does not define the process to go back to the
previous phase to handle changes in requirements. The waterfall
approach is the earliest approach that was used for software
development.
6) System Requirements

I. Hardware Requirement

i. Laptop or PC
 Windows 7 or higher
 I3 processor system or higher
 8 GB RAM or higher
 100 GB ROM or higher

ii. Android Phone (6.0 and above)

II. Software Requirement

iii. Laptop or PC
 Android Studio
7) Limitation/Disadvantages
- This system doesn’t use any backend.

8) Application – This application can help android users in reducing


power consumption slightly.
