Apps & Battery

[XperiaU-ser]

Hello..If there are any apps in the "running" tab,will that cause battery drain..?? Or is it enough to force stop the running app in the Power management..??

Please help.

if you force stop an app it will be re-open soon after, and this will drain a LOT more battery than letting the app run in the background.

taskillers

antivirus

ram apps

battery apps (yes, even battery apps)

will drain your battery faster and will make Android unstable, uninstall them ASAP

Android apps that use power control APIs are often 'battery killers,' oh the irony

Thanx for the reply. I have posted this query since I have a problem with my battery. It keeps discharging even when the phone is idle.I dont understand why this happens.
