This article addresses how to manage battery usage when Nexar Classic consumes more battery than expected or causes your phone to overheat.
What to Do if the App Uses Too Much of Your Phone’s Battery or Causes Your Phone to Overheat?
Nexar Classic's battery consumption can be significant because it uses settings on your phone, such as GPS, WiFi, & Bluetooth simultaneously during recording. Please check our guide and tips below to manage the app's battery consumption:
1. Mount your phone or place it in an area away from direct sunlight and in a stable position to avoid overheating and overworking the phone’s sensors
2. Reduce screen brightness
3. Close apps that are not in use but are active in the background
