Your phone is always talking, even when you’re not using it. It keeps saying hello to Wi-Fi, cellular networks, and Bluetooth, just in case you need something right away. All that talking takes energy, like a conversation that never ends.
Examples
- Your phone talks to Wi-Fi every minute just in case you want to open a video quickly.
- Bluetooth keeps listening for your headphones even if you’re not playing music.
- Your phone constantly checks messages from the network even when it's on silent.
