Use a solar powered charger

This is a multi-purpose device that can charge your phone as well as illuminate your home. It will keep your phone on for as long as there are sun rays in the clouds.
Laptop as backup
Although some tech experts argue that it is not good to use your laptop to charge your phone, there is always an exception to the rule. In case, you cannot afford to run out of battery and you have a laptop, connect your Universal Serial Board charger to your phone to power it on for a short while. This can also keep your phone on.
Stop running Apps

Use battery life app
There are countless apps that have been developed to extend your battery for Android and iPhone. You can download them to provide support to your battery. This can also do as much.
Take your phone to your neighbour
