No problem. 😆

Well, this feedback is from our testers, the app is in closed beta test yet. So i receive it as a tester feedback.

I will ask user about OS version, etc... Any information that can help ?

I have literally no idea, 90% seems quite impressive thought, did you tried on your devices ? You'll maybe find an explanation

Yes, just completed 2.5 hours on my device, with 1% consumption. Good so far!

In theory looking for new location should just happens in specified interval, so between this interval there shouldn't be any GPS request.
Please try lowering accuracy and let me know if anything changes.

Well, this happens only with one of my testers. So i think this is a damaged battery issue, not from plugin... User battery is damaged?! I don't know, but have 500 users testing my app and just one has this issue.

Because of that, I'm closing the issue. Thank you!
