iPhone 7 Plus with iOS 13.4 battery drain problem

In my iPhone 11 Pro after iOS updated from 13.3.1 to 13.4, battery back up is really really really poor in my iPhone 11 Pro. It will reduce very fastly and iPhone comes to heat very quickly also. Better keep same as before.

Regarding posts being deleted : In my experience posts critical of Apple are deleted

Posts that violate the terms of use are deleted. Sometimes, those are posts that are critical of Apple and sometimes, they are not.

I've said plenty of things that are critical of Apple in these forums. I regularly state that they are known for giving customers what they believe the customers should have, not what the customers ask for. And, they are frequently not, in my opinion sufficiently transparent. You'll note, however, that I can say those things and not have the post get deleted because 1) I'm polite, 2) I'm expressing an opinion, not speculating about Apple policies.

I don't have exact numbers but, I suspect most of the posts that get removed are the ones of a weird selfie with a caption that says something like "How never sosowbwheh". After that, I would guess that the ones that make personal attacks on other users are the problems.

Lots of people in this thread have said negative things about Apple. In fact, you just did. But, because you didn't attack fellow users, your post is still here.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. I certainly have never criticized another user or posted a selfie. It was a post critical of Apple that was deleted. The reason given was that it wasn't useful information and that may well have been true.

All my family reported to the developers about the battery issue as well as no sync with iTunes with OS previous to Catalina.

I wonder how long will it take the developers to do the modification. Also I heard that there is a way to go back to iOS 13.2.1

OK, I am done with this post, need to charge my iPhone, :o)

Anyone who has been here for very long has had posts removed. I certainly have. Some times I understand, agree and look at it as a learning opportunity. Sometimes, I don't agree and get a little angry. Then, I take a breath and remember that I agreed (we all did) to the terms of use when I signed up. No one forced me to agree with them. And, the last line (yes, I read the whole thing) says this:

Apple reserves the right to delete any Submission, or take action against any account, at any time, for any reason.

Either way, in the grand scheme of things, and, especially now, it's not worth spending too much time fretting about.

Just to piggy back on this post, drive 5 mins to work looked at 2 text messages..shut all apps down left phone on counter for 2 hours and battery is down 20%

* have done all recommended fixes.

** be back tomorrow to repost that it’s still not working correctly

Since the update on my phone my brand new battery doesn’t even last a day when before the update I could get 2 days of use before it went to 20 percent I have tried turning off the auto refresh and still terrible battery drain

Apple doesn't read comments, but if you report about the problem and there will be enough people to complain, there is a chance for a new update. Don't forget that because of the pandemic apple has less people at work.

You must have talked to level one support, who are not informed about this issue. Restoring it only restores the data. If Apple would include the restore to previous iOS, then you be OK. But the problem is that the servers keep the latest iOS 13.4.

I wish iPhones would have had the cloning like desktop computers can.

Exactly same here with iPhone XS. Before iOS 13.4 update battery was brilliant, never overheated or drained fast, if I can see massive drop in battery life plus extra heat accumulated. I did updated it on the day was available 24/03, software issues. I did fixed some iPhones in the last with hard reset, holding buttons together, will try this Xs and will update.

I have an IPad Pro, now running IOS 13.4, which previously had no issues with battery drain.

i have now, losing 20% in less than an hour.

it seems that the mail app is running far too much, I have placed mail on manuals updates and it’s made no difference.

I have contacted Apple help, to no avail.

and have to have the charger on very frequently.

Heres hoping Apple release an update to address this soon.

I’d like to make it clear that the issue is on my iPhone 7. I’ve watched lot of YouTube videos where they are telling people who are on iPhone 7 to not update because of this issue.

There are lots of videos where people describe being abducted by aliens or curing COVID-19 with random vitamins. That doesn't mean they are true. iOS 13 works very well on an iPhone 7.

I contacted Apple support on 3/26/2020 due to rapid battery drain on my iphone SE. This seemed to happen after upgrading to ios 13.4. My battery Maximum Capacity is at 100%. The Apple support person assisted me with the "Wipe and restore" process. It didn't seem to help. Today I upgraded to ios 13.4.1. I hope this fixes the problem.

I have did everything possible and it is still draining like crazy Updated to 13.4.1 new battery no apps no siri no location services download from ispw restore from icloud erased and restored over 10 times and guess what.

It Is The IOS Apple has not fixed yet...

Definitely an software problem, I have fairly new iPhone XS and iPad Air 3 both had great battery life on iOS 13.3.1 and after installing iOS 13.4 both devices are rubbish, the iPhone even heats up a lot, never had heating up before. Remember before with some versions of iOS 12 I had same issue on iPhone 6s and after another release and update everything went back to normal till now, we’ll hopefully Apple will get it fix soon.
