Facebook draining the battery on my Galaxy Alpha and S6

[Lars-DK]

For the last few days Facebook is draining my battery and also the one of my wife (Galaxy Alpha and S6). Battery is completely drained during 6-7 hours and Facebook is accounting for 50% of the powerconsumption. I have not changed anything in the settings, but noticed that there recently has been a Facebook update on both devices.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

I'd try clearing the app's cache (or uninstalling/re-installing if possible...I believe the S6 can only disable the app, not uninstall it).

Or trying this:
It turns out uninstalling Facebook for Android is pretty great | Android Central

Facebook's app isn't the greatest, to be honest, and it does tend to go rogue with resources in some devices.
