Huntloci requires a data connection to work and GPS-based positioning, which is quite a burden for your mobile phone. Here are 10 recommendations to help ensure that the mobile phone would work the whole day of hunting:

  1. Turn on GPS and mobile communication only during hunt. At other times (eg, lunch break or a meeting turn it off.
  2. Turn off other possible applications that continuously exchange data to the server (eg, e-mail, calendar, Skype, etc.).
  3. View the phone screen when it is necessary. Mobile screen takes a lot of energy, and it strains the battery significantly.
  4. Set the phone screen brightness as low as possible. Very high brightness of the screen is nice to look at, but it takes lots of power.
  5. Set Huntloci application data exchange intervals, depending on whether you move, or you stand. Huntlocis position reporting interval can be determined even one minute. This saves battery power. Changing the location of the interval is available since version 1.5.2.
  6. Use Power Bank. There are different sizes and allow to charge your phone several times.
  7. Use car charger to charge your phone during longer pauses while you can.
  8. Examine the acquisition of a new phone battery capacity. The higher the number, the longer the battery typically lasts.
  9. Hold the phone as possibly warm. Cold battery capacity decreases very significantly.
  10. Get a new battery for your phone .
