Not sure what's going on here. But it's the only app listed that is constantly using a sensor.

My phone is portrait locked though. So it shouldn't be sensing anything.

Especially if it's on the counter not moving.

The app supports rotation and is checking the sensor.

[โ€“] Cypher@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago

The app shouldnโ€™t be polling the sensor when rotation is disabled, because rotation will never be required when the setting is disabled.

I can reword this a few ways to help you comprehend it if necessary. Maybe in a different language?
