Mobile app battery drain — optimization tips?

in my experience the app drains battery like crazy when you have location tracking on all day. my phone is dead by 2pm most days and i got jobs till 6. tried turning off bluetooth but that didnt help much.

anyone found actual settings that work? not interested in buying a battery pack just to do my job.

  • Hi Art! Happy to help with this — battery drain is a common concern for all-day field use.

    In addition to the great tips above, I recommend checking out Mobile App Battery Optimization Tips in our Help Center. It covers device-specific settings for both iOS and Android.

    One thing I'd add: if you're on Android 14+, there's a known issue with battery optimization incorrectly flagging FieldPulse. The article above has the workaround.

    Let me know if you're still seeing drain after trying these steps!
