Hi Mark, I've been running some tests, here are the results. Before the recent update, the card reader used to go into sleep mode as soon as you minimised the Paypal Here app on your phone. It seems that what happens now is the card reader will stay connected for about 14 minutes and the screen will stay on, all the time draining the battery. There doesn't appear to be any way to manually put the card reader into sleep mode, you used to be able to press the power button once, that no longer seems to work. The card reader bettery was down to 50% charge after 2 hours here, not a lot of use when you are out selling for 8 hours.... I have reported this to Paypal and it is apparently being passed onto the development team. What REALLY annoys me about software updates is that we, the customer are never told what the updates are or what they do, very poor practice. Simon
