Huge battery sucker found and fixed!

Hi everyone,

I have read dozens of complaints from Spotify users saying their battery dies unreasonably fast. I have found the culprit and I found how to stop this waste of energy.
the problem is Unless you turn it off, Spotify is publishing all of your activities on Spotify meaning what you listen to, favorite playlists etc... but if you turn off publish my activity, or go into a private session then the app uses no more power than the built in music app. now this is only me but so far I have listened to a lot of extreme quality music and my battery is still in the 90% for power please comment if you figure something out or if it does or doesn't work for you!!
thanks all 😄

I just went and turned the publish feature off! Fingers crossed that it helps because I have been so tired of my battery dying! I wonder if it automatically turned on during a recent update? Because I definitely noticed the issue after updating my app.
