What are the things that shorten battery life (Android)?

In one of our applications, we need to use GPS continuesly , the goal is to get the user's speed. I recently discovered that while using GPS it continues to drain the deviceโ€™s battery. If the GPS device is not used, the deviceโ€™s battery will last for several hours, but if GPS is used, this will significantly reduce battery life.

  • I was wondering what โ€œwhat are other thingsโ€ that can shorten battery life?

  • How can we avoid them?

  • What are the best practices for using them?

Everything is heavily loaded with CPU. Each processor cycle reduces battery life. Thus, programs running in the background, or anything that requires constant updating (GPS), will drain battery life.
