Well that's reassuring. It's not obvious from scanning the first page that this is how it works and will potentially scare away users. So I guess then it only works if I have a reliable internet connection and my battery doesn't run out.

Do you know how battery/network heavy logdog is?

We keep battery consumption <1% and compress all data traffic.

>We keep battery consumption <1%

What does that even mean? 1% per hour? per day? 1% of your phone's battery? of my phone's battery?

Meaningless statements like the one quoted do not inspire confidence in you or your product.

Android settings -> General -> Battery. Power consumption divided by Android into percent per app
