Why Do Some Phones Feel Like They're Always Running Out of Battery?

Phones sometimes feel like they run out of battery fast because apps are always working in the background. Imagine your phone is a toy that never stops playing, even when you're not touching it. Some toys keep running, using up energy, and before long, the battery runs out. If you stop some of the toys (like turning off notifications or closing unused apps), the battery lasts longer.
