Battery drain with the last version ?

Hi,

since the last update, I seem that battery drain is heavy. 22% by day on my fenix5 !

I do some test :
Remove Widgets,
Remove BT connection.

I'm alone with this issue ?

I noticed extreme battery drain and phone overheating at the moment when syncing with watch is not working properly, e.g. due to the extremely slow or unreliable mobile internet connection. S6edge discharges from 100% to 0% in approx. 2,5 hour. Shutting down the app does not help, only restart of the phone solves it. Seems like some timeout has been forgotten.

Good find! I'm in the US right now and the roaming is really bad. That explains why my S8+ is draining battery and gets hot...

The whole app is crap. Yesterday I kicked it off my phone (S4 mini) due to blocking BT and WiFi. I wasn't able to download anything with WiFi if BT was switched on. Connect mobile didn't load anything with WiFi, I had to use mobile data. The problems were getting worse with every update. Also the bug with the sleep graph isn't fixed yet. Now I have uninstalled that crap. I'll use Garmin Express for sync.
