Facebook has admitted that its app drains iPhone batteries - but a fix is here.

The company has been investigating claims from users that the app is killing their device's battery more quickly than usual.

Facebook engineering manager Ari Grant has admitted that two issues with the software are responsible for the problem, and that his team has now fixed them.

"The first issue we found was a 'CPU spin' in our network code," he said in a Facebook post.
