Claim:
1. A method comprising: retrieving, by one or more computer processors, one or more applications (apps) on a mobile device; determining, by one or more computer processors, an app power consumption and an app priority for the one or more apps, wherein determining includes retrieving a pre-defined power consumption rate from a set of attributes from each of the one or more apps, wherein the pre-defined power consumption rate is based on actual power consumption for each of the one or more apps on the mobile device, and further defining the pre-defined power consumption rate as the app power consumption for each of the one or more apps; defining, by one or more computer processors, one or more app clusters to one or more logical battery partitions on the mobile device; and associating, by one or more computer processors, the one or more apps to the one or more app clusters, wherein associating includes determining the one or more app clusters to associate each of the one or more apps, wherein determining includes evaluating the app power consumption and the app priority for each of the one or more apps, and, based on the app power consumption and the app priority for each of the one or more apps, clustering each of the one or more apps together in the one or more app clusters relative to similarities in the app power consumption and the app priority.
