Google Messages no longer lowers battery: Pixel 6 users started getting the updateThis was exactly what Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro users complained about, who just had to open the Messages app to trigger this error. Also, using Quick Tap to Snap puts the camera in suspension in the background,
causing it to overheat and drain the battery.Google communications manager Scott Westover says the problem has been identified and has already begun rolling out a fix for the bug.
Until the update arrives, you can use a quick workaround. Go to Settings > Apps > Messages > Permissions > Camera and select Do Not Allow.
