I would like to know if apps consume a lot of battery power when it is used on Apple iPhone. Does the type of application being used affect the battery-life of the iPhone? If it does, could you explain how this process of excessive battery consumption affects the power level of the Aplle iPhone?
A normal app doesn’t consume much battery since it doesn’t do excessive processing or it doesn’t use more CPU. But with a game, it is a lot different. A game is also an app that you install on a Smartphone but unlike ordinary app, a game application consumes more battery because of its excessive use of the handset’s CPU and GPU.
An app’s battery consumption depends on its behavior and its use of the resources. When an app uses more of the graphics processing unit, it requires more power therefore consuming more battery. And of course, when an app uses more of your GPU, it will also require more processing from the CPU.
And again, when you have a high CPU usage, it requires more power therefore adding to the battery consumption of the GPU. When the graphics processing unit and the CPU are in high usage, expect that your battery will drain much faster. That’s why when playing a game on your phone with a fully charged battery, after 30 minutes or more sometimes the battery level drops to about 50 percent [50%].
