If your battery is really draining that fast, check the report of what applications are using Battery, as there may be something incompatible with iOS 13 that is in a tight loop.


If you don't want to do that, take your phone in to be examined.

Not true. My phone was fine before OS upgrade to iOS13 (ie IOS12.x). There is a bug in the power manager or the battery manager or some process/task that is draining power somewhere. Let's assume the phone has a battery capacity of 3000mAh. Now if my battery drains at 6%/minute (as per my video below) that would be a current of


3000mAh/60 = 1 minute of power at full power= 180mA. Assuming a 3.3V internal power rail, that's 0.594W (which you would feel as a temperature rise). I didn't feel the temperature rise but it may be there.

Anyway whatever the issue there is a massive battery drain somewhere and Apple needs to fix it.
