1 big negative issue

I love Track Kit- it has a nice collection of features and the generally work well. If Im using it regularly, navigating the app is very clear. If Im not I need to re-orient myself since the interpretation and clarity of symbols is not always clear.

The negative? Tracking the location is either always on or always off. I just checked to see where my battery power was going and, surprisingly the largest category is Track Kit, both in the last 24 hours and last seven days. I dont think Ive used it in the last week but I had spent some time resetting location tracking a few days ago. I guess thats when the power consumption ramped up although, Chrome is much worse. Its not OK to compare to very power hungry apps and conclude one is slightly less awful than the other.

I dont understand why am my choices for this app are to either track never or always. Whats it doing fiddling around in the background, consuming 36% of my battery? Of course there are plenty of apps that allow me to track my location only when the app is open. That makes sense so I can have a choice getting the data its gathering when Im not using it, whatever that is, or not.
