I can't say I use steam link on my phone allllll the time, but ya know I do sometimes. But I have noticed the last few times I did it I was only checking in on something for a few minutes. Usually no more than 5 minutes.

Each time I did this though it REALLY wrecked my phone battery. This phone is almost stock android, has android 11 so it's not ancient, has the newer background app killing stuff and such, usually I can get 3-4 days out of this battery if I'm not using my phone a lot.

But man, I dunno what it is, but Steam Link really really wrecks my battery, last couple 5 minute sessions I've done sucked like 20-35% battery out, that's pretty looney. Wonder what's going on with that
