    EXCESSIVE BATTERY DRAIN

    How to reduce Radio Check's battery usage.

    Radio Check is designed to be lightweight, but here's how to minimize battery impact.

    Normal Usage

    Radio Check should use less than 2% of your daily battery. If it's using more, something may be off.

    Reduce Battery Drain

    1. Disable background refresh — If you don't need instant updates, turn off background app refresh.
    2. Reduce notifications — Fewer notifications = less wake-ups = less battery.
    3. Update the app — Battery optimizations are included in updates.
    4. Check location services — Radio Check doesn't use location, but verify it's set to "Never" in your device settings.

    Reporting Battery Issues

    If Radio Check is using excessive battery:

    1. Go to Settings → Battery → Radio Check.
    2. Screenshot the usage stats.
    3. Send them to support so we can investigate.
