The electronic gadgets we have today make our lives easier. However, we can still find ways to improve their functionality. Below are some of the most important electronics hacks for your life that can save you time, money and frustration. Prepare yourself to unleash the full potential of your devices!

Give Your Smartphone’s Battery Life a Boost

Do you always run out of battery power in the middle of something important? Here’s how:

  • Switch Off Background Apps: Many applications continuously run on background even when not in use and as a result they drain your battery power down. Tap into settings and turn off background app refresh.
  • Enable Battery Saver Mode: Most smartphones come with a battery saver mode which slows down performance and background actions. Use this option when it is low on battery.
  • Reduce Screen Brightness: The brighter the screen, the more energy it consumes; lower it to save energy.
  • Turn Off Unwanted Notifications: Continuous notifications consume a lot of battery power; switch off unnecessary alerts

Bring Dead Batteries Back to Life

Nevertheless, dead batteries can be a pain in the neck, but you can restore them back to life with this little trick:

  • The Freezer Trick: Put the dead battery in a sealed plastic bag and place it inside a freezer for about 12 hours. Then, take it out and let thaw at room temperature before using it again. This may reset some of the chemical reactions that power a battery thus reviving it temporarily.

Enhance Your Wifi Signal

This is because having poor signal strength on your WiFi can be very annoying. Here are some hacks to improve your connection:

  • Position Your Router Correctly: It should be put at the center of your house, away from walls or other electronic devices that could interfere with its signals. If possible, lift it above floors.
  • Use Aluminum Foil: Place a sheet of aluminum foil behind your router’s antennas to make an improvised WiFi reflector which helps the signal reach where you need it most.
  • Change the Channel: Routers use different channels. Should your WiFi seem slow, try changing this parameter under settings in your router to minimize interference from other networks.

Speed Up Your Computer

Does your computer run slower than usual? Give these tricks a try and see if you get a boost:

  • Remove Unnecessary Programs: Delete software that is of no use to you anymore. This will mean more space is available and the burden on your computer is reduced.
  • Disable Startup Programs: When you start up your computer, many programs are set to start automatically. This slows down the startup process. Disable them in task manager to speed it up.
  • Clean Your Hardware: If dust accumulates inside your computer, it will overheat and slow down too. Open the case and blow out any dust with compressed air?

Extend the Life of Your Earbuds

Earphones are known to be fragile, not lasting long enough as expected; here’s how you can make them live longer:

  • Wrap Them Properly: When storing your earbuds loosely gather them around your fingers before fastening with a clip or tie; don’t wind tightly since that might spoil wires.
  • Use a Case: In order not to entangle or damage earbuds they should be kept in a cover.
  • Avoid Pulling the Cord: At any time when removing earbuds always pull from the plug not from the cord to avoid loose or frayed wires.

Enhance Your TV Sound

It is possible that the speakers built in your TV do not give you the best sound quality. Here, we have provided several tips to help you enhance your audio experience:

  • Use External Speakers: Link your television set with external speakers or a sound bar to get clear audio.
  • Adjust the Settings: Experiment with different TV audio settings. For instance, increasing the treble and decreasing the bass can improve audibility of dialogues.
  • Place Speakers Correctly: Place them at ear level and away from walls to minimize echoes and enhance sound clarity.

New Uses for Old Gadgets

Do not just throw them out! Try these suggestions for giving new meaning to old electronics:

  • Use an Old Smartphone as a Security Camera: This is possible by downloading a security camera app on an old phone.
  • Spare Tablet into Digital Photo Frame: You can use it as a digital photo frame by repurposing any unused tablet.
  • Laptop Used as a Media Server: Use an old laptop instead of buying one to store movies and songs, streaming them all over your house or office throughout your home or office.

The life span of those electronic gadgets can be lengthened by applying these hacks hence improving their performance as well. By doing that, you may end up saving both time, money and frustration. Start hacking today for more efficient and tech-savvy living!
