Power drain

Ian Spencer

Around about 10 May 17 Sophos home AV started to drain huge amounts of power (30% of battery in an hour).  I have uninstalled the app and re-installed it with no effect.  For now, I have completely removed the app as it made my phone unusable  

Phone is a Galaxy S5 running Marshmallow (6.0.1).

    I have been using this since early 2012 and it was a great product which served me across multiple phones, until now. Last few months I realized that the battery drain is faster and every time I checked the culprit was Sophos mobile. I was hoping that it would improve over time but unfortunately it did not. So with a lot of reluctance I had to uninstall. Overall it consumed over 18%. Hope this would be fixed soon so that I could reinstall.
