Since updating the Fitbit app a few days ago I noticed my battery life is significantly shortened on my Samsung Galaxy S6 Active. I checked my system yesterday and today and it's saying Fitbit is using 18-25% of my battery. Something is very wrong. I'm going to have to delete it if this isn't corrected quickly.
