Tweetcaster App

[JMarttn]

Hi everyone,
This is my first post to the forum. I'm curious what refresh interval seems to work best in regards to battery drain. I'd like to have it updating frequently, but balanced w/ battery life also..

Thanks for your input.

Welcome, JMartin. I have the default setting for Tweetcaster of 10 minutes. I also turned off notifications for new tweets as I found that annoying, lol... I don't believe this app causes a big battery drain though. It doesn't take much data to do a background update from what I understand, so it probably doesn't take very long. Other things like screen brightness, wifi vs 4g, etc. have bigger impacts on battery life in my experience.

+1 ^^^^^. Ten minutes is a good starting point but a lot will also depend on signal quality at your location. Try adjusting up or down from there and see what works best in your location.

Thanks jdpeters79,
I will go for that setting then. I did the same thing on notifications as well.
