My current phone, Moto Z Play, has been the best I've ever had for battery life. That was until recently. Looking at the drain since last charge shows in order,
Google Play services
Screen
Phone Idle
Android OS

After that, I see apps I actually use daily, except Hangouts is there, and I never use that.

Any idea what problem(s) I am having?

turn off google play
dim your screen

make sure nothing is updating automatically

set email to poll every 30 minutes and not push

When this happens to my phone I just do a factory reset and it completely resolves the issue.

Any other answer is just guessing because there could be 1,000 different things that could be hanging up and causing battery drain

I started turning off WiFi outside my house until I know i will use it.

That and turning off the location settings has helped my G5 a bunch.
