Kaspersky Battery Life for Android
Stopping apps
All apps running in the background are displayed in the main window of Kaspersky Battery Life in the Running apps list. You can stop these apps without causing any problems for your device; all system apps and your favorite apps are excluded from this list.
Tip: use the following estimates to stop the apps that drain your battery the most:
- On Android 4.1-6.x, Kaspersky Battery Life displays estimates of how much additional time you can get by stopping apps. Apps in the Running apps list are sorted by the amount of time you can get by stopping them.
- On Android 7, 8 and 9, Kaspersky Battery Life shows the percentage of battery power consumed by certain apps (not all apps).
You can stop apps from the main window of Kaspersky Battery Life or from the widget.
Stop running apps from the app
- Open Kaspersky Battery Life.
- In the Battery life window, do one of the following:
- To stop all running apps (except your favorite apps), tap Stop <number of> apps.
- To stop only certain apps, tap Clear all, select the checkboxes for the apps you want to stop, and then tap Stop <number of> apps.
The selected apps will be stopped.
