Very high battery consumption

[vinc3nz]

Describe the bug
SchildiChat is using way too much battery since three days.
Three days ago, SchildiChat used 0,7% of my battery per day. Yesterday it used 14% of my phones battery, while being on the screen for less than 1 minute. Today, I am already at 8,9%, and it's 16 o'clock.

To Reproduce
Well, that's the question

Expected behavior
Use 1-2% of battery, but not 14%.

I can't provide any upstream relevance or real steps to reproduce. This battery drain just appeared, I did not modify any settings.

You could look into unifiedpush, or download the gplay version if your device supports FCM. F-Droid version without unifiedpush is polling which is battery-heavy. But that's just how it is for Element, we won't touch that.

Well, the point is that the battery usage was way lower a few days ago. I am using the app since a few months now and never had any battey issues.

I haven't done anything recently that would affect that, so you may want to test upstream and report there then
