Knox Matrix draining battery and overheating the phone

[Sergio_Blanco]

Knox Matrix is draining the battery and overheating the phone. Impossible to work that way. I hope that Samsung publish an update soon to fix this. I'm concerned that the battery can start expanding or leaking because it is to hot and i need to keep the phone charging to go thru my work shift. Really bad situation...

It's the fact that we cannot turn the Location service off. It's my phone, it should be up to me to change my settings.

I think some of the problem with battery drain has to do with location service it was never a problem until the update now it keeps popping up about sver min

Location service was always being accessed in the background. It's now more noticeable because of the green icon. On devices other than the S25 series, the icon pops up when location is accessed and is not shown otherwise.

I'm bemused that after all this time people still do not realize that their location is always being accessed if they have location services enabled.  People worried about location access battery drain would be better off  just going through their apps and checking which apps have permission to access their location all the time, instead of just when using the app.  Even the apps that use it "all the time" don't really.  They just send up a periodic flare to check. It just means that the app does not have to be in use to access the location.  Some apps, of course, NEED to have location accessible all the time.

Spot on. Extra points for "bemused."
