I have a Motorola G60S - I recently started noticing that the battery is draining pretty fast, about 10% every couple of hours. There's no apps running. No apps have been installed recently.

I've spent hours going through suggestions online, but basically when I looking at the Battery Usage from Settings, Battery I see 'Android OS' on 43%. Of course tapping on that does nothing so I can't get a breakdown of what is sucking the life out of the battery.

So I've enabled Developer mode and looked at the Services - this is sadly of no use whatsoever.

I've gone into the Apps from Settings and checked each one's battery usage individually but most are at 0% and only one or two at 1%.

So I'm very stumped - how can I find out which background app is using the battery so much?
