Q: it seems my iPod touch 5th generation drains my battery quickly
I do not use my iPod touch frequently during the day. I do use it for internet and a few games, not video, just board games. Yet I frequently find the pod touch low on power every other day. I am surprised. My iPad mini retains power for a longer period of time, and I use it more frequently. Bigger battery? I don't know. I have have been upgrading my iPod touch over the years to the latest generation and this is the worst experience I have had for draining the battery. Could it be the latest generation of IOS? i don't know. Any comments would help. thank you.
iPod touch (5th generation), iOS 9.3.5

My 4th, 5th and 6th gen touches all had short battery lives. As it is even now I charge mine every night.
I do think it is a smaller battery that is part of the issue.
I've invested in one of those portable chargers so that could be an option you could look into. I also have a charger at work that I use in the middle of the day.
