Extensive Battery Drain Mobile App Android

Android 14, One UI 6.0, Samsung S22+

Firefox is using a large amount of battery while idle. You can see my app runs open a lot of the day, but not in use much. It has drained 20 percent of one days battery, and I am watching YouTube videos on another app (Grayjay btw check it out!) and it has used far less battery. If I set Firefox into a sleeping state, the app still drains a lot of battery. When in deep sleep,it stops draining as much power, but then Android keeps auto pushing their own browser to be my primary browser. I'm not sure what to do in this case, as it's too much of a hassle to have links not auto open in Firefox when in deep sleep. This excessive battery drain doesn't make sense, and I was wondering if there was any fix for this. Thanks for taking the time.

Thank you for the update. I hope this gets solved soon!

Fixed battery usage reporting in Firefox for Android: Firefox no longer triggers a bug in Android 14 which was causing Android to report massively inflated battery usage when Firefox was not running. You may need to restart your phone for the fix to take effect (fixed in 127.0.2)
