New battery draining fast

I installed IOS 12.4.8 on my iPhone 6 last week. My fairy new battery (98%) drains quickly now. How can I fix this?

iPhone 6, iOS 12

Give it 72 hours (it is probably indexing your iPhone) and see if it slows down. If not check Settings > Battery and see what apps/processes are using up the most battery.

You just said it’s Facebook.

Facebook is not an Apple product.

Facebook is not part of the update.


So I fail to see your logic. Several hundred million iPhones are currently running iOS 13.6. If it was the update there would be tens of thousands of posts about it, and headlines on every major news site.
