Overnight Battery % Question & Closing Background Apps

I've been using my S7 for about a week now and I've noticed that the battery drains on average about 1% per hour when it's not used OVERNIGHT.

Is this acceptable or is it considered too much?

Also is there a useful app that you can restrict or close other applications running in the background when they aren't even open?

For example my biggest battery draining app is 1Password. Even when I don't have it open, it's apparently running in the background. I want to close this and other non-system services from constantly running in the background with the convenience of one-touch app.

Any recommendations please?
 
Use ultra battery save mode

Using the Ultra Power Saving mode is for extreme cases when you are low on battery. Not useful for my situation

If you have always on display on, that's pretty normal.

And never use those close background apps services. They are running for a reason. Trying to close them will just increase your battery usage.

I don't consider 1%/hr that bad. When my S7 background usage (according to AccuBattery) gets up around 1.8 % I do a cache partition wipe and it goes down to around 0.6%/ hr.
