Hi there, 

 

Saving your battery is important especially when you're running your business on the go. I'd be happy to assist with the issue you're having with your mileage. 

 

If you're tracking the mileage using your mobile, there are some ways you could use to preserve the battery health. Here are some ways: 

  •     Prevent overheating
  •     Try not to charge overnight
  •     Don't completely drain your battery or keep it fully charged always. Keep it between 30–80%
  •     Use the charger provided in the box
  •     Don't charge your phone while using heavy apps that use a lot of battery (PUBG, Google Maps)
  •     Don't charge your phone when it is under direct sunlight
  •     Don't leave your phone in the car when your car is in direct sunlight.
  •     Minimize your use when operating your phone in hot weather (direct sunlight)
  •     Remove case while charging
  •     Don't keep other apps running in background while your phone is idle
  •     Turn off Bluetooth, Hotspot,NFC while charging or when in direct sunlight

The reason I recommend implementing these steps is that there hasn't been issues with the Mileage Tracking feature draining the phone battery.
