Is there any issue running Loop on your iPhone when it is set to low battery mode? Would that cause any problems?

Thanks!

@Eric I recall reading that Low Battery Mode did cause issues in the past. Not sure if it’s been remedied in cage current Loop version.

ETA: I just searched in the FB Looped group and there are comments as recent as a week ago to be sure not to use Low Battery Mode.

Ive used Loop on low battery before without any issues, usually only have it set low for a few hours at a time though.

Here’s the Loopdocs comments on low power mode: [Step 2 Compatible iPhone/iPod touch - LoopDocs](https://loopkit.github.io/loopdocs/build/step2/?h=low+power#avoid-low-power-mode)

The issue appears to be in low power mode some apps (Loop included) wont be allowed to work in the background.
