Iphone 11 pro max battery dying fast

Wife and I both got the 11 Pro Max, mine battery is awesome, but hers is horrible. Set up our phones identical and after all day of very light use my battery is 94% and her's is at 30%. We took them off charge at the exact same time so I could run these tests. She is now getting multiple messages that her iPhone doesn't see her battery as an official Apple battery. We ordered both phones the same day off the Apple website. Now we have to drive 1.5hours to nearest Apple store to get this resolved. There goes half my Sunday :(

I will say this -- I googled (ha!) and found an article that advised on what to do, turn off siri, don't refresh background apps, I even factory reset (make sure you back up first!), etc. I did probably five out of the ten recommendations, and my battery draining has stopped. I think there is a glitch in one of the updates and that caused the problems. Here's hoping they will fix it soon!

First for Keeping the Battery Health maintained for Iphone 11 Pro Max charge it with 5w orginal charger which came in the previous iphone generation not from the box one which is 18w as it charges quickly and take away the battery cells more to take heat and give you more charge quickly, Second for battery drain issue try to switch off location, Background refresh off, Siri app off for suggestions also, icloud off also your phone backup then you will be good to go :)

Is this a new phone that is being restored from an iCloud Backup? That is the only reason I can think of that would cause Photos to run in the background for that long.

Took my wifes phone to Apple store yesterday and they swapped hers out with new one

I had the same issue with my watch which came down to an app. I would get in touch with support and have them check it out. I have had an issue in the past with the battery getting smoking hot but everything seems to be rocking along pretty good with the 11. Hope all turns out good for you! Apple will take care of you.

Hi Faust_One, my 11 pro max doesn’t like that. I use airplane mode 9 hours at night and it’s not drops even 1% battery. have you turn down the brightness? See your screen time and battery usage that night. Capture it here.

I would contact Apple are if your phone is fairly new I would contact your provider and have them get you a new phone. Make sure you’re using the wall charger that came with it. I turned off all my apps I don’t used . My provider is giving me a new phone. Hopefully Apple will get back with you soon .

Today I went through my iphone 11 pro max to reduce the usage of my battery. So, I made all kinds of changes like removing all the apps from my home screen (moving them to the app library) so now from the lock screen I tap and scroll up than swipe left to view library. If I don't see the app I want in the groups, I enter the first letter of the app in the search bar and pick from the list. Or I can use Siri to open Safari, Notes or excel... etc. I believed I have stop all background Refreshing and email to fetch, dark mode. One thing I noticed while doing all that is the Easy Access Camera App, from lock screen, tap and swipe left could be my battery drain problem. I'm left handed and when I put the phone in my belt pouch its possible that I activate the camera when i slide the phone with the screen facing inward into my pouch. I've often seen it lite up and hot when I go to retrieve it. At work I use my iphone 8 to scan barcode of the product I need the product info because using the face ID on my new phone is to time consuming (put in the lock code everytime to open phone) With the 8 I just need finger print ID. So, I've only been doing this for the pass week and thats about how long I've been experiencing this issue. I could disable the Easy Access Camera App but, I rather not. So now when I slip my phone in my belt pouch I will still have the screen face in but rotate it 180 so there is no accidental left swipe of the screen.

I would keep it on a charger and on WiFi whenever you can during the first few days.

Are u sure? I think you should check your battery to apple store. I have ever do that to. My battery is 100%, and i streaming movie from my iphone for 2 hours and the battery still 91%.

I am having the same issue. My battery is draining super fast. My son went on youtube for about 40 minutes and it went from 100% to 61% in that time. We were home so he was using WiFi. This is ridiculous.

My humble opinion: It's pretty normal. It all depends by the apps you use. For example, I noticed that facebook and instagram devour battery life.

Remember to charge your battery when it's 25 % or more to avoid its premature degradation. It's not really good make die your iPhone every day

Why don’t you charge your iphone until 100 percent before sleep? Because i always do that from my iphone 7 plus until now and it works well for the battery health. beside that we have a fast charging battery hahaha. So i only need 1 hour and 20 minutes to charge from 45 to 100 percent.
