330 0

Battery life is something most people think about, but what about battery health? This is important for the long-term usability of your phone. Unlike the iPhone, Android devices don’t have a super-easy way to check this.  For iPhone users, they can find the option directly in settings and then Battery. But there is no such option on Android devices. In this article, we have detailed how to check battery health in Android devices and why they are important. Also, how can you keep your battery healthy? Let’s start.

How to check battery health on Android

The more you use AccuBattery, the better it gets at analyzing your battery’s performance. Here’s how to check your Android phone’s battery health using the AccuBattery app.

First, let’s swipe down from the top of the screen to reveal the Quick Settings tiles. Tap the setting icon to open the Settings. Next, scroll down and select “Battery and Device Care. Under the Additional Care section, select Diagnostics. Now you’ll see some information about the battery. The “Life” reading is what refers to the health of your battery. It will either be “Good,” “Normal,” or “Weak.” By checking the battery health, you could confirm the same. That’s why it’s important to check battery health.

Other Methods to Check Battery Health

Some Android phones do let you check the battery health using hidden menus. OnePlus lets you check the same using its Diagnostic app- we’ve done a detailed post on it here.  There’s a hidden code that you need to dial to access the testing section of the device. For that, you need to dial  *#*#4636#*#* on the number pad and a testing section will open. Look out for the battery information menu and it will tell you if the battery health is good or not. Do note that this method is supported on very limited smartphones.

How to Check Battery Health on Samsung Devices?

Samsung is one Android manufacturer that includes a method for checking battery health. It does require an app, but it’s an app that is most likely already on your phone. If you don’t have the Samsung Members app, you can download it from the Play Store.

How to Check Battery Health on Xiaomi’s?

When you use your phone for many years, you may notice that over time your battery performance has decreased. However, there is no option to check the health of your battery on Android devices. This is a bit different with Xiaomi phones. You can check the health of your battery from a special menu with a special code included in the MIUI software.

What you have to do is not complicated at all. Enter *#*#6485#*#* code on the dial interface to check the battery loss and health status, and whether it is necessary to choose a battery replacement.

How To Check Battery Health On OnePlus Smartphones?

To check if your OnePlus smartphone is suffering from a bad battery backup, you should check if it needs a battery replacement following these steps.

  • Download OnePlus Care by Servify from the Google Play store.
  • Once downloaded and installed, launch the app and register using your phone number or email.

You will need to add your OnePlus smartphone using the IMEI provided on it to diagnose the phone.

Adding your device will also show you if your phone is under warranty. In case if your battery status is not in a healthy state, it would be covered under the warranty period if you opt for a battery replacement.
