iPhone 7 battery draining ridiculously quickly

Recently my iPhone decided to start draining really fast. It loses 4-5 percent per minute even when not in use. I’ve tried the tips online like disabling mail from checking all the time but it doesn’t work. Another strange thing is that it will last on 1% seemingly forever compared to how fast it drains the rest of the time. It’s an iPhone 7 any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hello:


1) Have you tried a restart?  If not, do it now.


2) See the section "View battery usage information" in the link below to see the apps that are consuming your battery:

Maximizing Battery Life and Lifespan


3) If you have not upgraded to iOS 12.1, do it now and then check “Battery Health” in the link: 

iPhone Battery and Performance


4) If all else fails, consider a battery replacement:

Good luck.
