Embodiments of this application disclose a method for reducing power consumption and a device, and relate to the field of mobile terminals, to further reduce power consumption of a terminal device when the terminal device enters a doze mode. A specific solution is as follows: After detecting that screen-off duration of the terminal device is greater than first duration, the terminal device sends a transmission control protocol reset packet to an application server of a to-be-controlled application, so that the application server disconnects a TCP connection to the terminal device. Therefore, after the terminal device enters the doze mode, the power consumption of the terminal device is further reduced. The embodiments of this application are used to reduce power consumption of the terminal device.
