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've been getting alerts from my Samsung S9 (Android v8.0.0) for high battery usage by Sophos Mobile Security (version 8.5.2803.)  Looking at it now, it's using 0.6% per hour,  or 29% since last charge, 3 times as much as the next battery hungry app.
