Battery drain discovery

[DrNitun]

Hello,

I read in a post a couple months back indicating that on Windows Phone 8.1, 3rd party battery apps can ACTUALLY tell us what is causing the battery drain most of us are experiencing. Is this true??

I am not sure, if 3rd party apps can display battery usage. But with 8.1 we get an app called "battery sense" which will display battery usage of each app ;-)

FrostieDE,

Ahh ok then that was it then..."Battery Sense". So this will tell us which app is the battery HAWG? Now I hope it will also check the whole OS and not limit itself to scanning 3rd party apps!

Just hope this ridonkulus battery drain will be a thing of the past!

I hope it does and I hope 8.1 increases the overall battery life because the drain I get is ridiculous

I had this battery drain as well, but it dissapeared when I uninstalled the battery app. (I have tried many, it is the same thing with them all)
In WP8.1 we don't need them, as we have battery percentage when we swipe down.
