In a <a href=\"https:\/\/support.google.com\/android\/thread\/347265896?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new support post<\/a>, Google says that Instagram has updated its app to address the issue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The fix comes in Instagram version 382.0.0.49.84, which you can grab <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.instagram.android&amp;hl=en_US\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">from Google Play<\/a> now. If you don\u2019t see the option to update, it could be that you\u2019ve already got it. You can check by long-pressing the Instagram app, tapping \u201cApp info,\u201d then scrolling to the bottom to look for the version number.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">It looks like Instagram may have been responsible for <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/05\/28\/android-battery-drain-instagram\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">complaints about battery drain on Pixel devices<\/a> since a Pixel software update earlier this month. <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/05\/28\/android-battery-drain-instagram\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>9to5Google<\/em> reports<\/a> that, when asked about the battery drain issue, Google pointed to the support post announcing the Instagram update. The outlet <a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2025\/05\/19\/google-pixel-battery-drain-may-2025-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote in mid-May<\/a> that the issue seemed to impact every Pixel model that got the May update, from the Pixel 6 through the Pixel 9. It\u2019s not clear whether other Android phones were hit with the same issue, or whether Instagram was indeed the main culprit.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019ve been having unusual battery drain issues on your Pixel phone lately, Instagram might be to blame.
