Type of Phone: Samsung Galaxy Express
Okay so i have had my phone since Christmas of 2013, which wasn't too long ago and too soon for any major problems to occur. However recently i noticed i've been charging my phone way more than i've actually been using it. Last night for example, before i went to bed my battery was at 85%... then when i woke up this morning it was at 13%. I found it particularly odd because i switched off my phone out of curiousity then switched it back on and the battery was at 47%... i plugged it in to charge anyway. How is that even possible when i wasnt using it? During the week i had been charging my phone at least 2-3 times a day. I never had this problem before. My charger seems to be in good condition. I got the charger along with my phone. I only have 10 downloaded apps. I dont have any games on my phone nor do i play them. I never leave any apps running in the background, i am always sure to log out of Facebook whenever i am finished. Although i do not log out of Instagram or Kik, thats a common thing for most people who have those apps. I never have the brightness on my phone set too high because i heard it drains battery. My GPS is off. I have Power Saving Mode ON. I don't have any widgets up display, so the only thing that should be updating on my phone is apps whenever they need to. I honestly can not think of anything else that could be wrong. As i said i never had this problem before so sorry if i lack other info. I have uploaded two screen shots below if they help some how. NOTE: I took these screenshots AFTER it finished charging. Any advice would be great. Thanks
