Facebook location services taking lots of battery

[princesultan]

Hello everyone,

In my android settings under "location" it says that recent location requests from Facebook shows high battery use. The thing is, location services are turned off in the Facebook app settings itself. What's the deal??

The Facebook app has always been terrible for battery life. If you're rooted, you can use Greenify to hibernate it whenever you're not explicitly using it. If you're not rooted, I recommend this app which is just a wrapper for the mobile site.
