It is pretty hard on the battery if you let it run on an unplugged phone. However, I believe the app is set to autolaunch whenever plugged into power and after some delay of inactivity. It works best and receives the least amount of light noise when it runs at night, where it won't interfere with your phone usage. I don't know how the day to day battery life is affected if it only runs at night.
