Even in standby mode, a smartphone can quickly drain battery due to background processes and the activity of VPN apps that run even when you're not using the device. This can lead to a significant reduction in battery charge over a short period, especially when combined with a worn-out battery or extreme temperatures.

Such programs can not only consume a lot of energy but also use your device for questionable purposes, increasing the risk to your privacy and data security.
