BATTERY CONSUMPTION
Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. Life Cycle does not use the GPS in the background, but instead relies on cell tower and Wi-Fi locations. As a result, it consumes less than 1% of your battery per day, when the app runs in the background.
REQUIREMENTS
• Life Cycle needs to run in the background to be able to record your data. It only uses 1% of your battery per day when doing so.
• You need to carry your phone with you, for Life Cycle to accurately record and interpret your activities.
• Wi-Fi should be enabled on your phone for tracking to work.

The app is neat for seeing the breakdown of days. I like that it syncs with Health to see sleep, workouts and mindfulness. It's unfortunately not super accurate. I live in a place where it's a pretty short distance to most destinations and I think the app doesn't check your location very frequently so it will often miss destinations. Like the other day I drove from work to some shops then to another area of shops and the app picked up that I drove to the first shops, but not the second or the drive back and didn't pick up that I had visited the second area of shops. It'd be nice if turning on driving focus or something could prompt the app to rescan because this happens a lot.
