Good morning all of you lovely people,

I thought i'd come here and see if any one else uses the Torn app on Android and finds that it is a battery killer?

Also does anyone else have 'pinch' issues when zooming in or out, where it refreshes the page instead?#

Have a good day!

Mr C.

I wouldn't really call it a battery killer, but it does seem to consume more battery than other apps of a similar kind. I haven't compared the battery use of the app, and just using Torn on android chrome without the app, but I imagine the battery use will be improve in future versions.

Since installing it I've noticed that my battery has depleted more at the end of the day yes, weird... I thought my phone was just getting old.

I don't use the zoom feature, but tested it just now and it does refresh when you zoom at the top of the page. Feel free to make s bug report.

Glad its not just me, another member of my faction has the the same issue with scrolling up and down and it refreshing as well.

bug report sent in :)

Same here! After the install the battery wont take a full day. It´s consuming above all other apps and the mobile already reported that.

Enabling more or less notifications at app, i presume it wont decrease the battery usage, right?

I reported an issue with the desktop version on mobile refreshing unintentionally because of the page becoming unresponsive when trying to move around. I think this is probably related to that but making a new report is probably best to be safe.

I've noticed battery drain too. Hopefully this gets looked into and something can be done about it. Also, mine sends me directly to Google Chrome and opens www.torn.com and I can't use the apps features whatsoever apart from notifications. Is this normal haha?

Torn is good for using a lot of things. I notice it also uses more data with custom racing being a killer.

Not noticed any battery issues but the refresh when scrolling gets irritating pretty quick. Could do with DoctorN integration as well

using galaxy s4 doesnt seem to deplete battery. more because of the age of this phone than anything. Just wish i could have my own notifications, these things are scary some times
