I Thought "WOW!", When

Tom6068 — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 10:43:24 GMT

I awoke this morning and noticed my home screen was still on next to me in the bed seeing the glow of it. I thought charge time! I was watching YouTube independent channels when I got sleepy fast and took out my ear buds and I thought I closed the YouTube app. Or perhaps I did but I accidentally touch it sleeping and activated it. In any case, it was on for over 6hrs and this is what I got form my battery.

It happened to me before also. I was totally shocked that my phone lasted so long and the amount that was drained

It showed I watched Tiktok for 5 hours and 47 minutes on screen time (6 hours and 12 minutes running total) and only used 23% battery.

Bro I really don't like how TikTok keeps your screen on so if you fall asleep on tiktok it keeps your phone on and running and could also make the screen burn in if you're not careful

Post a screen shot next time! My experience this time is an exception, not the rule. YouTube was for on, but not any actual video was streaming, just the page with looping video examples. It is however common that I see over 10hr minimum SoT and often hitting near 12hrs. But my setup uses black background and very areas of of highly bright colors so my screen itself is not going to use much energy for brighter tones. I also don't use social media apps, except maybe X every now and then (it's mostly asleep).
