I have had a different experience from the other reports from users . I have an iPhone 6s and before installing the tile I easily had enough battery for a full day starting around 7:30 am - recharging again around 11pm with still a decent reserve. After installing the app and using 3 tiles I find I am in the red (below 20%) battery left by 5pm. To check I turned the tile Bluetooth, background refresh and location off for a day and consumption went back to normal.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.On my phone (iPhone X), over the past 10 days, the Tile App has consumed 4% of available battery. I use two Tiles (keys and wallet).
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.In the couple minutes it took me to read the responses, my phone lost 4% power. Turned location to only while using app and no power loss in last 15 min. Hmmm
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My experience has been so bad that I deleted the app from my iPhone. It really shouldn’t use much but Battery Health show heavy usage by Tile and my phone just shuts down due to low battery. I hope that Tile can fix this as it is a useful product otherwise.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My Iphone 6s drains super fast with the tile app location service set to always on. It will drop from 100% to 20% overnight. This is a brand new battery with 100% health capacity. If i turn off location services my battery lasts 3 days. I have to set location services to only while using.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.iPhone 6S. Tile app is by far the biggest power consumer. Used 28% over last 6 days.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It drains the battery terribly on my iPhone 8. I’ve tried it many times. I cannot leave it on the always allow setting.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have not noticed any difference in my phone's battery life after installing the Tile app.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have several tiles and I had te app running today as I changed out some old tiles and replaced batteries in 4 others. It used half my battery over several hours. iPhone X. Love Tile, just close the app until you need it I guess.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thought it was just me iPhone 7 Plus and it is 60% of my battery usage. I can go to bed with 60% battery and wake up to 35%. I plan to upgrade to a new phone soon and hope that resolves the issue but it is sad that something I use once every 3 months uses the bulk of my battery. I used to go 2 days without a charge now I charge twice a day sometimes. Battery is 88% life being a 3 year old phone.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
