Seems like kind of a "duh." The Facebook app is =always= busy with something. Battery life on my Note 5 is so great I barely even think about it anymore though.

It was one of the first things I looked up to do when I got my phone.

That one talks about how it drains iPhone battery. Has anyone here done any research on this? Enough to make you ditch the FB app? I didn't know it was constantly data mining your info, even when "off." WTH.
