    Yesterday, I played the game at minimum sound volume and brightness. After 30-40 minutes of playing the battery of my iPad mini dropped drastically (85% to 55-60%).

    This is not normal because I have the new iPad mini and don't have the problem by other games! Can you give more information about this problem?

    Anyone else with this problem?!

    I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. My issue is the background battery drain. As in, the app is using battery and CPU while not playing. I always exit out of the game properly by selecting the Exit button.

    As you can see from the screenshots, my SOT is 1 Hour 10 minutes and Battle Bay app has used 1 hour and 51 minutes of CPU power. That means that the app is continuously using heavy CPU power even when it has been closed. For today's test purposes Battle Bay is the only app I've used because I wanted a clear indicator of battery drain. I also get the App battery drain warning on my phone every day for Battle Bay at which point I have to "put it to sleep".

    It seems like the issue is occurring for IOS devices as well.

    Battle Bay is a big app (storage space wise)
    So yea it will use up your battery quick depending on your device

    What does storage space used for an app have anything to do with battery and CPU usage?

    I appreciate your response but I don't think you know what you're talking about.

    Also, I was complaining about the background CPU and battery use (when the app is not running). I'm not worried about the battery drain when I'm playing.

    I use samsung and if I run an app that took up lots of space to download my phone gets hot and the battery drains when I play. Doesnt happen to me on ipad so I switched to that.

    Okay...o_O
    For comparison, I play CSI racing 2 which uses around 900 MB and also The Simpsons Tapped Out which uses around 1.5 GB (1500 MB). Neither of these apps use nearly as much battery as Battle Bay.
    To be clear again, I'm worried about the background CPU and battery use. Not active play CPU use and battery use.
