Facebook continues to have one problem in developing the application for Android. Facebook's central item officer, Chris Cox, even encourages his staff to use Appliances Android, in order to see the problem up close, to understand it in order to find a solution.
What problem are we talking about? Of course the battery life.
This particular problem has been reported since January in Android Central specifically for the Facebook application. But it seems that there are others who are still testing how long the allegations about the reduced battery life are.
Ashu of the TWZ (Tech World Zone) decided to test on his device, and found that the battery performance and battery life of his Android improved dramatically when he completely removed Facebook's phone application.
A team Redditors then they started their own tests and they were all excited about the impressively improved battery performance when they deleted the application.
The TWZ columnist even tried the application Metal for Android, which is simply a wrapper for Facebook's mobile site. Using a Huawei Nexus 6P for the essay, the phone had 20% more battery life during the day. This continued for a week, as long as the tests lasted.
The TWZ website contacted the company and a spokesman replied:
"We've heard reports from a few people who are dealing with it problems speed data coming from our Android app. We are investigating the matter and will update you as soon as possible.”
The company's spokesman said nothing about the battery life.
