IOS update 12.3.1 now Battery draining

Yep, you have a problem with the same app that gets me many times, Facebook. Try completely removing the app and downloading and installing it again. If you can wait until the next update by Facebook. I don't use WhatsApp but I know some of those that do also have a battery drain problem after updates until the app is updated.

If you had both running 12.3.1 and only one had the draining problem how would this make it an update issue? Logically shouldn't it have done it on both?

If you do a Google search for battery problems on iPhone after update you will see the first complaints back with the first update of iPhone OS 1.0.

I may have stumbled on the root cause but haven’t tested it thoroughly. Turn off installing apps and see how the battery works. My Bluetooth headphones didn’t drain it like it had been and it seems to be draining normally again.

I haven’t tried it with apps on and auto update off but the battery setting showed uninstalled apps was the biggest drain and that was all that I changed.

If this is the cause and Apple can now fix it they owe me a pair of Beats.

Nothing to say other than now it’s all upto Apple itself to fix this mess. Every update all along has effected one user or another with many bugs and issues and one of then is the unrecognizable and high batter drain.

I have the same problem after last update.

My phone is iphone 6

it happened after update to IOS 12.3.1. My battery status is also good.

It might be deliberate again. no idea.

Apple wants to sell more phones lol .

I shouldn't have updated it :(

Apple so evil.

I have THREE ipad Airs and all three are having battery life problems after the update. You can watch the numbers do a two second a piece countdown....then it gets to forty-something percent and turns off. It is horrible and as far as I can see, Apple support isn't admitting to it. They asked me to delete everything and re-install. All of the websites I have seen ask that you turn off everything and practically delete most of your apps to help battery life....it is HORRIBLE!!!! I see Apple recommended the one post that said "No it doesnt"...hahaha Yes....yes it does.

I finally, and reluctantly updated my 6S Plus last night. I started out with a full charge this morning. Took it off the charger and watched it drain down to 40% in less than an hour, and I wasn't even using it. I put it in low power mode and charged it back up, and the same thing happens. It drains down to zero while watching it. I have not placed or received any calls, haven't been using social media or any apps. Just sitting in my pocket it drains away. Battery health says 83%. Something in the update goofed things up.

Sorry but I have no idea specifically to which question at which point I've asked is you are referring to right now. And I'm gonna stand by my point and blame this at APPLE NO MATTER WHO SAYS WHAT !. Not every country or origin has Apple stores or genius bars and some take great care and save for a lot of time to buy their dream iPhone. When satisfactory is not met up to the cost and specifications of a product a customer is not gonna stay and be happy at all.

I seem to have solved my iPad Air2 battery drain.

If it helps - I completely drained my battery, then plugged it in. When it started back up, I switched it off with the slider.

I let it charge completely over night.

I am on 98% now after three days with no use.

Previously my battery drained completely in a matter of a few hours from 100%, with no use at all.

I turned off all notifications on my iPhone, shut off all background refresh even turned off phone message notifications and charged 100% last Tuesday. I called my dad and we talked 11 minutes and battery was down from 100% to 68%. From an 11 min call

Pls apple provide a fix. Battery pattern is unusual after updating to 12.3.1 phone loses battery while calling and using apps like YouTube and safari at an alamaring rate. NEED A FIX ASAP. It is affecting the batteries of our iPhone

My battery was replaced 8 months ago and now I need a new battery. I also think this is due to the update IOS 12.3.1. I contacted Apple Support and they will not stand behind the battery that was replaced. They have a 90 day policy, but hey whose battery goes bad before 90 days. Just sayin. Poor customer service.

I have checked this and doesn’t reveal what is draining the battery. Also noticed the battery will not charge more than 93%. It has been on the charger for 5 hours and no change.

Wifi and LTE delays when viewing videos.

SIRI hasn’t worked since the update.

Keyboard keys have been “stuck” several times.

Please fix this Apple.

thanks

iPhone 6 Battery draining rapidly since 12.3 update. All locked screen + background apps have been switch off bar essential low app usage (phone, message etc). When is next update coming or will Apple release fix around. This is the same issue we had a few years back. I hope this is no a ply Apple are using to force us to purchase new phone when the one I have works perfectly, until recently - we’re all waiting a proper response, which involves acknowledging this battery issue - hello Apple

Yes!!

I updated my phone a little over a week ago and within about 3 days my battery started to drain at lightning speed.

I went online for 45 min and my battery went from 89% battery to 36%. My battery was fine before the last update, I could go all day on one charge but now I'm having to charge my phone at least 3 times during the day. Its really starting to **** me off!!
