iOS 13.1.2 Battery Drain on iPhone

I am also facing the same issue after installing IOS 13.1.2

my iPhone SE battery drains within a hour after fully charged the phone and overheating when talk to someone over call.

really very disappointed by Apple service. They are giving more features and degrading the quality. Not feeling no more interest in Apple phones.

I have followed the advice of all experts regarding power save on iPhone 6s since updating to iOS 13 (latest as of 10/16) and battery’s charge diminishes to single digit level within a couple of hours. Prior to this update my battery only needed nightly charging. Is an update to resolve this something we might expect soon?

What a miserable update. It has absolutely ruined the battery performance on my 6s Plus. Is Apple yet again so desperate to sell more phones that they’ve AGAIN ruined older phones with an inappropriately designed update? This is not the first time, just the most recent.

Shame on you, Apple. Shame!

iOS 13.1.2 Battery Drain on iPhone

too.

My iPhone 6s was working great before this.

All I do is charge my iPhone.

Very unsafe not to have a cell phone working.

I should not have to buy a new

battery for my iphone, because the update caused this.

Please fix this Apple.

Very disappointed!

You have ruined a great product.

The same thing is happening to my Iphone 7.

Battery health is 98% and below is a list of the things I have done:

• Reset the phone as new and installed all the apps again.

• Turned off all the notifications except phone calls and messages.

• Turned off background refreshing.

• Turned off automatic updates.

• Turned off most locations, only maps and find my phone are on to (while using).

• Turned off vibration

• Cloud backup is set only for contacts, notes, reminders and calendar, NOT for photos, videos and apps.

• Display is set to low brightness

• Turned off analytics

• Email is set to "Manual" Fetch and Push are off

• I only use the original apple charger and cable.

• the phone has had plenty time to index everything and it should be settled now.

• I don't use Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter and Whatsap

Don't know what else to do to get better battery life. Sometimes I use low power mode which helps a bit.

The phone goes from 100% to 40% in stand by.

If I make a 10 min call, the battery drains about 25% of it's charge.

It's even worse now with the 13.1.3 update which I hoped it would fix the battery problem.

This is what I think, this new system is geared to the new phones with better batteries, processor and RAM.

I doubt that the battery will get better life on the iPhones 6S, 7 and 8 like it used to under IOS 12.

I'm thinking about buying one of those cases that has a built in battery pack to help and keeping me from charge my phone all the time.

I'm not buying a new iPhone I just can't afford, the iPhone 7 is still a great and capable phone.

If Anybody has any more suggestion I'll be happy to try.

I am having the same issues with my SE phone. Last night it was turned off and it lost 65% of the battery. I also have the 13.1.2 updates. I am heading to the Apple store this AM to see if they have any additional fixes, I don't run a lot of apps but I do leave my wifi on...but that is pretty much it. I should have stuck with update 12.

Hi all, I had the same problem with my iPhone SE. After the update I could literally watch the battery charge counting down and also my phone got quite hot. I tried different things (Disabled Location Services - had some impact but not a lot, Disabled optimized charging - nearly no impact, ...) but the only change that really had a great impact for me was disabling the Peak Performance Capability (https://www.digitalcitizen.life/what-is-how-disable-peak-performance-capability).

After disabling it, my battery lasts again like before! Hope this maybe also works for others!

I went to the Apple store and they tested my phone and it had 100% battery life left so all of the capacity standards were good.

I reset the email refresh to 15 min and turned off the background app refresh on the apps I do not use frequently. I will fully charge today and see how long the phone holds its charge through normal use. Before the update it lasted at least 2 days based on my usage habits. I do turn it off at night.

Ok here is my battery drain up date. I fully charged my SE at noon 10-18-2019, used it normally....I think I only had a couple of Google searches and checked a couple of e-mails, a few texts and 4 phone calls. I turned the phone off at 10:30 PM last night turned it on at 8:30 this am and as of 9:45 AM my charge level is 79%. So it is not draining as fast as it did before I made the app changes...but still annoying that we need to make these adjustments for an inefficient update.

Hi everyone

i have a 6s. For the first few days of the

latest version of iOS 13, my phone battery was draining very fast like everyone else posting on this discussion. I followed the directions in many of the posts, but also, there were comments from articles that stated that the first few days after the 13 iOS download there’d be many updates taking place in the background and that’s a battery drain attributable to new software. Many apps were updating in the background.

it’s now three days since I updated to 13.1.3 and I have noticed that the intense battery drain has diminished. The battery Power is lasting longer again. I’m not running on dark mode as someone stated that seemed to be a battery drain

I thought I’d report this information to all having battery issues

You can definitely reduce the symptoms by progressively disabling features but the iphone 7 still manages to drain out with no reported background activity and then fails to recharge (with an apple smart battery). disconnect the case and then a couple reboots and it starts to charge up again. the sudden depletion of power when idle and asleep is strange. and this definitely coincidentally started ios 13.1.x updates. and it will randomly shutdown even after reaching 100% power...

I use 6S for years, never tried the situation like yesterday! my iphone updated the system automatically while i was charging my phone with wifi on from ios 13.1.1 . There was no battery problem of my phone with ios 13.1.1,but the phone was overheated after the update of 13.1.2. I googled the news of battery problems of 13.1.2, so I updated 13.1.3 right after the new update of 13.1.2. Even the news claimed that the new ios solved the battery problem, but for me the problem is even worse!!! it drained from 52% to 20% in 15mins while i just using whatsapp without videos and photos. I lost my patience to bring a phone with died battery out.

Apple had me backup the phone and did a hard restart to recovery phase then do update from my I tunes. after that it reloaded everything back on my phone and so far the battery has been fine. Might be worth trying. they remoted in and my battery was fine.

Keeping an eye on these post for a week. Been suffering all that's reported in the previous posts on my iPhone 6s; overheating, major battery loss over 1015 minutes. You name it I've had it.

Following couple of call to Apple support, reset phone to bare bones "as new" ststus...but thios loads 13.1.3 - so guess what, same problems. Have done all posted means of reducing battery drain; no change.

Went to local Genius Bar today for hardware test. Result? No problems and problem stated to be a software fault... that might or might not be resolved in the near future. Thanks Apple!! Even more so as my husband now using his iPhone more than the usual "very casually for very short periods". I think you might guess what the outcome was...but, in case you haven't, his iPhone 6s has the same problem.

To rub salt in our wounds, while in Curry's looking to source an Android replacement, a lady came in reporting the same problems on her 6s as the reason for now wishing to by an Android replacement.. Then, to increase my aggravation (and ire with Apple) while in the Genius Bar, another lady came in reporting similar problems and the technician (just back from holiday) said that he'd had another report on this issue earlier in the day. Thanks a lot Apple....NOT!

Please, Apple, resolve asap and let users know there's a problem, what you're doing to fix it and an estimated time for resolution. Management by mushrooming does not work.

My 6S has had issues since 13.1.2 update. From the MANY users who have given the EXACT issues I’ve experienced (and the charts in my Battery Health have the graphs to support what I say), Apple MUST recognize a problem and offer us a fix. I am a die-hard Apple fan, but I’m on the verge of buying a new MAC (because of update and battery issues on a 2014), and am SERIOUSLY considering bypassing Apple on the computer and —if I need one—on a new phone. My 6S was PERFECT, and overnight it needs replacement. Apple, this is something you did. Fix it!
