To monitor and control what uses the battery

The Battery use screen allows you to see which applications are consuming the most battery power. Information on this screen allows you to identify downloaded applications you may want to turn off when not being used, so you can get the most out of your battery power.

From the Home screen, press the Menu Key and touch Settings > (scroll the screen up) > About phone > Battery use. The screen will display battery usage time. Either how long since last connected to a power source, if connected to a power source, and how long you were last running on battery power.

The list of applications or services using battery power are displayed in order of energy used, from greatest amount to least.

Touch an application in the Battery use screen to see the details about its power consumption.

Different applications offer different kinds of information, and they may even include buttons that open settings you can use to reduce power consumption by that application.
