Battery life
Your phone is like a small computer that processes tons of information and apps at lightning-fast speed. Depending on what you use, that can take a lot of power.
When your phone is stationary, not charging or not in use for a period of time, unnecessary background processes are shut down to optimize battery life.

Here are a few tips:
To help prevent spyware, phishing, or viruses, use apps from trusted sites, like Google Play.
In Google Play, check the app’s ratings and comments before installing.
If you doubt the safety of an app, don’t install it.
Apps use up memory, data, battery, and processing power—some more than others. If you’re not happy with how much memory, data, battery or processing power it’s using, uninstall it.
Monitor children’s access to apps to help prevent exposure to inappropriate content.
Certain apps may not provide completely accurate information. Take care, especially when it comes to personal health.
Set app permissions
You will only be asked for permissions when you use a feature in an app, instead of all at once when you install the app.
