Something fishy about the Startchat App
I downloaded it onto new phone month or so ago but hadn't used it as my partner and I use the WBBchat app. I opened it once but closed it again, now I was just looking through battery usage and it was far and away the highest use @ 13% of battery,(while not running) FB and the like is 8%, I use Youtube mostly on my phone and that wasn't even more.
Add the battery use to the long list of unnecessary permissions and I am very wary of it now, and I own shares in it!! Hopefully they sell all the data to NSA, should pay out ok  

Don't worry that's absolutely normal. "Messenger Apps" all run in the background even if they are closed! They connect every n minutes with the server.That's what causing battery usage. 
I am using Whatsapp/Skype alot with friends & family and it sometime takes up to 35 % of my battery. If you want to same battery just deinstall it and if you need it reinstall  Wink
