To block unnecessary power drains and improve your PC’s battery life, Avast Battery Saver applies the following actions:

• Lowers processor frequency
• Optimizes display settings
• Disables Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (only if these functions are not in use).

To specify exactly what actions Avast Battery Saver applies to extend battery life, enable and configure the Custom profile.

Depending which Battery Saver profile is enabled, Avast Battery Saver may reduce your processor speed to extend battery life. When working with office applications or browsing the web, you should not notice a difference. If you need more performance at the cost of battery life, you can tweak the performance level in our Settings menu.

• Custom: The effect on system performance depends on your customized settings. To adjust processor performance when the Custom profile is enabled, go to ☰ Menu ▸ Settings ▸ Custom mode ▸ Hardware and devices ▸ Processor performance. For more information about configuring your Custom profile settings, refer to the article below:
  • Avast Battery Saver - Getting Started
• Maximum: This profile prioritizes maximum power savings, so you may notice a slight decrease in processor speed while it is enabled. You cannot customize the Maximum profile.
