Samsung does not stop: Android 12 came to another model
Galaxy M21, which is also mentioned in the list of Samsung phones that will receive Android 12, got the new update this week.
Google did not accept the claims for the application!
According to the announced reports, the Google Messages application revealed that the battery life was consumed after using the camera. Even if the application remains open, this problem still persists. Battery consumption also causes the smartphone to overheat.
The battery drain of Google Messages happens when the app stays open or stays in the background after you want to take or view a new photo. Google did not accept the claim about the battery consumption of the application. However, according to leaks, the company will release an update soon for this reason.
Users who do not want to wait for the update can minimize their battery consumption by revoking the permissions of the Google Messages App. To revoke Google Messages permissions, simply follow these steps:
- Settings
- Application Information
- Permissions
- Camera
- Not allow
