# Power Saving Process Overview

In this section, the power saving process of GIZO SDK is explained in more details.

## **Monitoring Battery Levels on iOS Devices**

On iOS devices, the battery level is reported with a granularity of 5%. This means each range of battery levels from *`p−2`* to *`p+2`* is represented by *`p`*, where *`p`* is a multiple of 5 (e.g., *`p = 0, 5, 10, ..., 100`*). For example, battery levels between 8% and 12% are reported as 10%. Consequently, the selection of battery thresholds for the power-saving mode in the SDK is constrained to *`p+2`* values, as the reported battery level only updates when it crosses these thresholds.

## **Monitoring Battery Levels on Android Devices**

On Android devices, battery levels are reported with a 1% granularity. This allows unrestricted selection of battery thresholds for the power-saving mode up to 1% precision.

## **Monitoring Battery Levels in the GIZO SDK**

To ensure consistency across iOS and Android devices, the GIZO SDK maps the reported battery levels on Android to mimic the behavior of iOS devices. As a result, on both platforms, the choice of battery level thresholds for power-saving mode is uniformly limited to *`p+2`* values.
