High battery usage on Pixel 7 (discuss.tchncs.de)

I'm using the app for about a week and like it a lot but it uses a lot of battery (sometimes about 30% in 1.5h). Is this normal or could it be some config problem?

Are you using light theme or dark theme?

Dark theme

Hello again. I just released a new version of the app with some fixes related to performance/battery usage. Could you please give it a try and see if it helps with battery usage? The release is live as v1.58.2.

Hey, I'm using the newest version and it seems the power drain problem is still there. I browsed for 1 hour and the app used 20% battery

Hey, thanks I will try and report back 👍🏻

This might be settings related. Could you please DM me with your app settings? You can generate a dump of your settings by: Tap the three dots button (bottom right) on the home screen. Tap Settings. Tap Import & export settings. Tap Export settings.Tap Copy to clipboard.

Update

I did some basic profiling of the app and didnt see anything that stood out to me. Resource usage by the app seems to be within what you'd expect.
