Additional Information

Since the first version 4.6 I have noticed an increase in battery consumption.
Even the newer versions do not solve this problem. Only a downgrade to v4.5 helps me.
On Reddit you can read about some people who have the same problem.
I have this with a Samsung Galaxy S24 and Samsung Galaxy A25
