I've attached my battery usage screenshot. I came into work with 90% battery life. This was at 830am and it is no2 105pm and I am at 36%. I do use the fast charge at home but would that cause this kind of drain?7e98fc5b-9a6a-4ce1-9343-8a6708c0d199.jpg

Download AccuBattery
it will tell you what is causing your battery to drain so fast!

that is crazy!
Besides AccuBattery, there are a few other battery analyzer apps out there that can provide more details :)

It looks like your screen has used up 30% of your battery. Are you keeping the display on or is it accidentally staying on?

I have it to turn off after 30 seconds and it's only on when I'm using the phone... I've even changed it back to auto brightness as well

Go to settings, display, keep screen turned off and turn that on. This will prevent the screen from accidentally turning on.

Try clicking on screen to see what the screen on time Is, that will give an idea if the screen is the cause of the battery drain, and I suspect it is.

Factory reset it if all else fails. My S8+ battery is brilliant and I charge it for around 4 hours at night when I'm home that's it. It keeps slayin all day with me.
