I have done what google says, and deleted recent apps, but I don’t know if it would leave files behind, which I believe was the main cause, because it started when I installed a game I seen on here, but I can’t remember what it’s called, it was posted like a week ago
anyway, my battery used to last all day, but now it’s like less than 30 minutes
each day it loses another 8% on battery, it now switches off, at 51%
I’ll finish this later, because it’s about to go

and I know I’m being paranoid on this, but I used to get like 1 spam email, but since my phone started doing this, I’ve been getting like 20+ a day.. and one was saying, I have control of your device, and I have made it not work properly, unless you send me money, it will never work again, blah blah blah.. like I said I know I’m being paranoid, but the timing and wording, just got in my head, and it’s messing with my brain, I just need reassurance that it’s just a unlucky coincidence, I’m sorry
