iOS 13.5.1 battery drain

Yes... when the device started to fail (and it was a lot of days after

13.5.1 update), the battery drained, the CPU was at 100% all the time,

the phone was very hot and apps hanged a lot or directly died (don't

know the word... I'm from Spain... dissapeared) and volume control was

loooooooot buggy and slow and perhaps appeared 1 minute after pressing

it.... Wifi doesn't disconnected... 4G swithched to 3G and switched to "no signal" and switched to "no sim" and again 4G... All horrible.

Hopefully the official 13.6 will solve our issues completely. Although Apple doesn't read here (as some say), they must be aware of this issue. (yesterday there even was an article in iCulture about it)

As a "very new" Apple fan, I made myself believe this issue is introduced because of the necessity of the Covid tracking app.

Not earlier in a previous os, they had to implement a new feature in an existing OS as fast as possible.

Hopefully that's the reason 13.6 takes so long to be stable, to carry tings out.

If Apple still takes this serious, our battery lives will be in mint condition in 13.6

I would like to know that if my iPhone 7 battery drain also takes place during switched off position (side button long press and slide to off) is it true that then the battery is broken? If some can answer this question especially.

I have updated to iOS 13.5.1 on June 1st and since then this battery drain has begun. Before this the phone was functioning perfectly. There was no issue at all.

What I’m facing is almost 40 to 45 percent drain through the night in switched off mode... means 100 percent to 60 percent or 55 percent in the morning when switched on - after almost 12 hours in switched off condition.

My phone does not seem to be heating up a lot... little warm yes.

Also I observed screen off activity is not increased much... and maximum activity is shown by mail or home & lock screen to be almost 28 percent or so.

Can anyone help me with the above situation as I’m unable to understand if it’s the iOS 13.5.1 which is causing all this battery drain or some real hardware issue. Battery health shows maximum capacity as 100 %.

I had purchased this iPhone 7 in November 2019 so its yet be one year old.

Please help me out.

I too am having the same issue. For me, it’s Music just eating up my battery in the background. I haven’t even been using the app due to the battery drain and it’s still cranking away in the background.

Same with my iPhone XS compared with my work phone which is an iPhone 7 and running 13.5 the XS battery drains within a day even not using much during the day. And more shocking after I checked the battery health within a month the health indicator dropped 3%!! I hope this get fixed soon. Bit disappointed that phone needs battery replacement soon of faulty software :-(

I have purchased Iphone 11 pro max from about 6 months. Recently in the past 3 months, I started to have extremely battery drainage. It drops very fast without even using the phone. I searched online and found that could be an update issue that uses the processor in inefficient way. It was recommended to disable “siri” service which I did, but didn’t help too. My battery health is currently 88 % and gets very hot while charging with the fast charger which came with.

I have same problem after updated to 13.5.1 yesterday. Battery is draining faster and also even charging also very slow. Is in airplane mode with charge of 100% it will drain 60% with in 1 hr but battery health is 80% what is the solution to solve the problem

Well like a lot of others my iphone11’s battery is being drained by the background music app while not using it! I have 13.5.1 and I’m getting very disgusted with my Apple products! They better fix this quick or I’m going back to androids. I’ve tricked ever suggested thing and nothing works. The music app so far today is 80% battery usage and I haven’t even opened it!!!! FIX IT APPLE

Does anyone know when this will be fixed?? Now that we are working remotely I need my phone for work. The battery drain from the music app is insane!! 75% usage and I’m not even using it and I have the background refresh turned off!! Im at 15% battery after only using my iPhone for texts today.

Already given and waiting for 13.6 update, just a heads up battery life is fine now but in certain times when Wifi is off and its on standby in half an hour it takes 4% of battery directly and i dont want it is but this is all over, otherwise battery seems fine no issues, no heating issues as steps i have mentioned clears out the problem.

I am noticing that Apple's Music app is draining my battery at an astounding rate! Using the Settings app, and looking under the Battery option, it shows that Music is being used 77% of the past 24 hours! That's while it' sin my pocket, and I'm not listening to ANYTHING. I even tried to kill the app, but that didn't help.

What's going on Apple? Other apps look like they're using the appropriate level of backgrounding.

I've tried all the suggestions listed in this thread and my battery is still draining at a quick pace. The music app is running constantly in the background and my phone is extremely hot to the touch.

Anyone back out of the upgrade and have things straighten out?

iOS13.5.1 // XR

Your music app is running amok and uninstalling it and reinstalling does not help?

Nor setting back to factory as new condition either???

Your phone hardware has a problem IF that is the case, but I wonder if you did try this.

No you cannot downgrade.

Both of our iPhone 7’s and iPad 2017’s have noticed a dramatic decrease of battery life since installing this update 13.5.1. It is especially noticeable on our iPhone 7’s when battery drops from 80% to 60% in about 2 hours after doing nothing but checking email. Battery drain has never been this bad. Please fix Apple.

Thanks for the reply. I have noticed that if I restart my phone, things are fine... until I play a song. As soon as I've done that, the Apple Music app starts going crazy. It's like it stays running in the background all the time, pretending to play music. If I open the app, nothing is playing, so I don't see why it would act that way.

Sounds like a software bug to me.
