Hi,

I'm not sure why but I went to bed at about 3am with 100% battery in my Samsung S22+ but 9 hours later at 12 o'clock my phone shut down with zero battery power left.
I checked the battery on the phone for usage and it said BubbleUPnP had used 86% since the last charge while I was asleep. When I use Bubble for playing music the phone sits on a charging cradle so is always at 100%. The phone knows charging ended at 3am.

Before I went to bed I turned off my music and swiped BubbleUPnP player off the screen and thought this closed it down.

Should that be enough to close it or how should I go about closing it down properly on the phone so it doesn't burn through my battery when I'm asleep?  I don't transcode files on the phone and they're played from a NAS to my hifi.

Ordinarily my phone would use less than 10% of the battery overnight.

thanks in advance

Hi,

You can full kill the app when not in use via More > Exit (in v4.0 released yesterday) or More > X icon (in previous versions).
The X icon in the expanded notification does the same thing.
You can also enable More > Settings > Battery saving mode, if you do not use features that requires it to be disabled.

You need to disable Local and Cloud > UPnP/DLNA media server settings > Enable remote browsing.

The label for the grayed 'Battery mode setting' is wrong (it says: 'Local and Cloud > Enable remote browsing'), which I will fix.

The only thing that can disable (gray out) the 'Battery saving mode' toggle is
if 'Local and Cloud > UPnP/DLNA media server settings > Enable remote browsing' is enabled.
