the ad services (Google, etc.) doesn't care about your phone's battery life as long as they can serve their ads. They don't get anything in return if they spend time and resources making their ads "more efficient". These companies don't care about the user experience or providing a better product. They're in the ads business not in the making-a-better-phone business.
as far as they're concerned your phone's battery life is a hardware/OS issue.
sad but true.
- megablast 15y agoGoogle certainly has an interest in extending android battery life, you would be silly to suggest anything else.
- beatle 15y agoAll evidence to the contrary (including this article).
- timrichard 15y agoAll evidence to the contrary? Android releases since Gingerbread have made much more use of black elements (status bar, menu shortcuts, app launcher background). Bright colours on OLEDs are bad news for battery life.
- notatoad 15y agogoogle is an ad company. the whole reason android exists is to make sure you view as many ads as possible. you think they don't care about how that affects your battery life? if your phone battery dies, you're not viewing ads anymore. the goal is to have you connected to the internet as much as possible. the more usable their stuff is, the better they can accomplish that goal. the making-a-better-phone business is the ad business for google.
