I have a triangle, circle, and square. The square shows all running apps, not background. You can use it to change which has focus. But no, my battery problem is not when apps are minimized. And I very rarely use Ignite. Right after I installed it I noticed that after closing, it remains in the list of "notifications" in the top left beside the time. That's equivalent to the system tray of Windows, it's presence there means it's still running in background. So I went into settings, then into apps. It lists "Recently opened apps". I selected Ignite and "FORCE STOP". It's the only app refuses have to do that with. There is no setting in Ignite to tell it not to remain after close.

I disabled Chrome because it has spyware built-in. Use Firefox both on Windows and Android. But the battery issue seems to happen when everything I can identify is closed.

At the bottom of most Android screens (though it is customizable) is
the back arrow nav button, the "home" circle button, and the 3-vertical
lines "what apps are open" button... The "hamburger" one is the 3
lines, though I didn't realize it was vertical lines, so therefore it's
not really a hamburger icon!  So call it a hamburger someone has
propped up on its side  :-)

So once you force-stopped Ignite, did your battery problem go away?
