The Smartphone Link app affects the battery charge level on my smartphone
The Smartphone Link app uses Bluetooth® wireless technology to send data to and receive data from your device. It is normal for an active Bluetooth connection to consume some battery power. The app also periodically checks for updates to available services, which may consume additional battery power.
You can change the battery usage settings in the Smartphone Link app to reduce the amount of battery power the app uses.
