    Does anybody have any thoughts/tips on how to reduce the overhead on AR apps generally? Getting alarming amounts of battery drain running AR on mobile devices. Just two minutes of use can drain a battery from 100% to about 40%! Most users won't put up with that I suspect.

    What devices and features are you using? That seems like an extreme amount of battery draining.
