@jiminycricket @harriskenny That's a hard point due to the distributed nature of Jami.. You move a lot of things on the device. The DHT proxy is used to avoid that point. Maybe on some devices there is some optimization to do, but without any reproductible devices, we can't really help. (Firefox and Jami use the same percentage with my devices now).

@AmarOk
Maybe something was wrong with my setup. I use firefox too. Ring was using almost 25% of my phones battery, and I was barely using it. Firefox uses less than 1%. This might have something to do with Google Cloud notifications not existing on my device but I didn't thing ring/Jami used gcm anyway (I guess it's now firebase cloud messaging (FCM) but same idea)
@harriskenny

@jiminycricket On Fdroid I don't think the proxy is enabled by default, so indeed, the app will work as a node of the network and will always sync with the rest of the network and store data for other nodes. @harriskenny

@AmarOk @jiminycricket

So I was worried about this too when I downloaded it but haven't seen it heavily draining battery yet

I may have it idle in the background in the settings? also, I haven't messaged with anyone yet 🤣 so i'm not a good person to ask
