If you haven’t had the powersaving Lollipop update, IFTTT’s new features are here to help
The IF for Android app can now control your battery. The easy-to-use automation app was already pretty great, but now it can effectively bring Android Lollipop’s Battery Saver Mode to older phones. While there isn’t currently a recipe to restrict apps when power is low, it can shut down Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. If you already have Android 5.0, IFTTT also has recipes to send low power alerts to your PC and monitor when you charge your device. If you’re not familiar with the IF app or IFTTT online service, it ties actions to triggers, for example, turning off Bluetooth when the app senses your battery is low. IF doesn’t just work with your battery, it works with hundreds of apps and online services to offer a simple alternative to Tasker. Before you read on, first download IF by IFTTT from Google Play and set up an account.
Steps to go:-
1. Search for recipes
In the IF app, tap the pestle and mortar symbol to open a side menu and tap the plus symbol to go to the Add a Recipe menu. Tap Search and look up Android Battery. Tap the one you want in the results, then press Done.
2. Get low power alerts
Try the recipe that sends a notification to your phone when you have a low battery (https://goo.gl/SHcFtz) or, to make sure you don’t miss the alert, have it sent directly to your Android Wear smartwatch (https://goo.gl/Orlmi4).
3. Turn off functions
Even when you’re not using blutooth or near a wifi hotspot, these sensors sap your power. when your battery is getting low, IFTTT can automatically turn off Bluettoth and Wi-Fi.
4. Mute when charging
There’s a recipe to mute your phone when you put it on charge (https://goo.gl/v1R6I4). To save you adjusting the volume when you wake up, also install this recipe to unmute when you unplug.
5. Knowledge is power
If you think you’re charging your device too much, keep track with IFTTT. You can record every time your phone’s battery is low in a spreadsheet, or keep a tally of how often you charge it .
6. Create your own
Return to the Add a Recipe screen, press ‘+’. Choose a trigger and an action. We selected Android Battery, then selected Android Device and Update Device Wallpaper as the action to imitate Lollipop’s orange Battery Saver Mode theme.
Enjoy Great Battery Backup!!!
