Android app 2.10 battery usage

[jerschmidt82]

Anyone else on Android app version 2.10 noticing a huge battery usage since the update? Despite not actively using the app, it's using more than double the battery of any other app on my phone. There's also always a notification of whether it's connected or trying to connect to the vehicle. I have the widget enabled, but didn't notice these issues prior to this version.

Update: I did an infotainment restart and my battery usage is about an average of 1/3 of what it was when I made this post.

0.3% for me. S24 Ultra.

Mine is over 7%. S10e.

Mine is inconsistent. Some days it was fine, single digit percentages. Other days it was 58% of my battery. Started at 100% battery at 8am, by 3pm I was at 19%, with barely any usage of my phone while I was working. All background usage by the Rivian app according to my phone. Pixel 8 Pro. I've disabled background usage for now and am just accepting that my phone as a key proximity unlock/lock won't work. Hopefully they fix this soon. I submitted feedback via the app about it.

I have the same, above normal, drain since updating the app on my Pixel 7 Pro. It's nowhere near 7% like OP, but it is averaging around 0.5% more drain than normal.

Looking at my ElectraFI data shows that the truck doesn't go to sleep nearly as quickly as it did before the app update.

Here's the graph of my commute this morning. I walked away from the truck at 6:43am and it went to sleep at 8am. Lost ~1% over that time.

Same drive a few weeks ago with similar timing. The drain while sitting was ~0.3%.

I was getting a bunch of those notifications about connection to the vehicle, but I turned them off on my phone. Obviously, that doesn't change the extra drain phenomenon.

FYI, I did an infotainment restart and my phone battery usage is about an average of 1/3 of what it was when I made this post.
