Facebook fixes iOS app's battery drain issues
- 9 years ago
Facebook has figured out why its iOS app has been draining your iPhone's battery, and thankfully, it's fixed the problems in a new update.
The company had said last week that it was investigating claims from users that the app was draining user's batteries more than usual, but today the social media giant has revealed what exactly the issue was.
"The first issue we found was a 'CPU spin' in our network code," Facebook's Ari Grant said in a post.
Hopefully the new update fixes the battery drain issues for users, and though Grant didn't say there are other issues still causing your battery life to struggle, he did say, "We are committed to continuing to improve the battery usage of our app and you should see improvements in the version released today."
