Device Personalization Services Battery Drain. In naptime google play services shows as not optimized with find my device set to off. If i restrict background activity for this, what will i be losing out on?
Since it's a secondary device my only aim is to reduce idle drain to as low as possible. In phones that have android 6 or later, you'll see the top overall contributors to battery drain. Well, google play services actually includes several packages that are necessary for your android device to function.
In my experience with this particular device, with gms doze working idle drain is lower than no gapps at all.
The fewer notifications you enable, the less impact it will have on your device’s performance (and battery life on tablets and laptops). You can also look at the location services under apps and check the battery usage. If you're running a recent cm based rom you've most likely encountered some pretty severe battery drain from google play services (or android os as it sometimes shows up as). Go to settings, and then tap power.
