Battery life is a concern for most people, but what about battery health? This is important for the long-term usability of the phone. Unlike iPhones, Android devices don’t have a super easy way to check this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what is battery health? The term “battery life” generally refers to how long a battery can last while being charged. Battery health tells us how bad the battery is. Poor battery health means worse battery performance – discharges faster, gets hotter, etc. So you should know about battery health on your Android!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check battery<\/a><\/strong> health on Android and Samsung Galaxy phones
Samsung, an Android maker, includes a way to check battery health. It does require an app, but it’s likely already on your phone. If you don’t have the Samsung Membership app, you can download it from the Play Store. Proceed as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. First, let’s swipe down from the top of the screen to reveal the Quick Settings tile. Click the gear icon to open the settings.<\/li>
  2. Next, scroll down and select “Battery and device maintenance”.<\/li>
  3. Under the Additional Care section, select Diagnosis.<\/li>
  4. This will open the Samsung Membership app with a bunch of icons you can check. Click the “Battery Status” icon to continue – if you haven’t already done so, you won’t see a checkmark.<\/li>
  5. Now you will see some information about the battery. The “lifetime” reading refers to the health of the battery. It will be “good”, “normal” or “weak”.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Other ways to check battery<\/a><\/strong> health
    If you don’t have a Samsung Galaxy device, you can try a method that doesn’t require third-party apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This method uses Android’s hidden diagnostics menu, which can be accessed by entering a code into the phone dialer. However, these codes do not work on all devices and mobile networks.
    Open the mobile app and enter #<\/em>#4636##<\/em>. This will open a “Test” menu, which may include a “Battery Information” section. You will see the battery health listed here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If that doesn’t work, then you need to use a third-party app. Thankfully, the Play Store has an awesome app called AccuBattery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    But unfortunately, you won’t get an answer right away. Because AccuBattery cannot access battery history information. It will only log data since you start the installation. After a few charge\/discharge cycles, you’ll be able to see a reading of the battery’s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
