battery issue

[ansa82]

I've had excellent battery life. All of a sudden this morning I've gone from 100 to 91 in an hour just checking email??? Any ideas?

AN app is most likely causing a wakelock. Something that get added, or just an app that on this day, for whatever reason is keeping the phone from going into sleep. Try a startup manager and greenify. These won't stop the app from misbehaving, but they will/should smack it back into line when it does.

If you set it up correctly and don't use it on important things that MUST run in the background (Messenger, alarm clock, etc) then you shouldn't even realize its on your phone... except the better battery life. It gets me about 20-35% a day extra.

Thanks! I'm giving it a try.

What does it mean that Greenify is "hiding" apps?
