Battery drain after iOS 14 update.
I had installed the new ios 14 and my battery drained from 90% to 10% without me even touching the phone. This has never happened before.
Please Apple fix asap.

Hi, you can check this: iPhone Battery and Performance
Check the battery health, go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health & if the maximum capacity is less than 80%, you need to replace the battery on your phone.
You can restore your phone as new:

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings
If the issue persists, you can take your phone to an Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider. Book an appointment on getsupport.apple.com or use the Apple Support app.
Why would we turn off a feature of owning the phone? This is Apple doing it once again; your solution is appreciated but is nothing more than a bandaid for the consequences of their update.
So do you just leave find my off? I am just interested to know as that seems like a pretty important thing to have activated.
Apple does this so you consider buying a new phone. It intentionally done to trigger more sales
I have brand new 12 pro max its battery health is draining 1% every week it all happens after updating to 14.7.1 can apple fix this or we have to face this issue rest of our life.
As you are under warranty, I would make an appointment to visit Tech Support at your Apple Store or, if that's not convenient, try online / telephone Tech Support. Something is terribly wrong if their flagship phone is having issues.
Apple is doing this intentionally to promote sale of new devices. They are doing business with bad ethics. Not at all desired from such big name.
My phone had less than 2 hours of screen time today, literally sat in my pocket during my 12 hour shift, and went from full battery to under 20%. This has never happened before, and only happened after I downloaded that “emergency” update that just so happened to be put out right before the new iPhones were announced. Seems to me that apple is still putting out phone-damaging updates to force people into new phones. Complete bullshit. And before you ask, I have an iPhone 12 Pro, battery life at 98%, so this is just apple pulling its bullshit to force people into new phones. Complete joke.
Sorry, I don't buy into the "Apple is doing this to force people to buy new phones" theory. But I do agree that Apple is completely responsible for these problems and needs to (1) greatly improve the quality control process for all iOS updates, and (2) stop with the silent treatment when so many people are having the same problem. They should come right out and acknowledge the problem and give an estimate for when it will be fixed.
I have an iPhone 7 purchased new over 4 years ago. It's been through major OS upgrades every year and countless minor upgrades and patches. There's no question that some releases caused battery drain issues (and other undesirable behavior). Usually the following release fixes the problem. Not always, but most of the time. The worst are, as mentioned in this thread, "emergency" patches that get pushed out with (obviously) very little (or no) quality control. I made the mistake of upgrading to one of these a few months back right after it was released (hence being a part of this thread), and it took Apple way too long to fix it. But they did fix it and my battery stoped draining in a few short hours. When the latest patch was released with lots of drama about "this is serious, upgrade now!", I put it on the back burner hoping to avoid dealing with this yet again. I'm glad I did.
The take-away for users is, don't install upgrades or patches for at least 2 weeks after they are released (I usually wait at least a month, sometimes longer, unless I fall for the "quick, do this now!" drama) and keep an eye out for reports of problems (Tidbits forums are helpful for this). The take-away for Apple is, put on your big-boy pants and stop acting so indifferent. Acknowledge your mistakes and fix them asap. You can certainly afford to do so. You want your users to trust the devices you produce, but you keep breaking that trust.
You dont buy into this? Apple literally had to pay millions in a lawsuit = “Batterygate” because they were doing just that.
Hello~ While I firmly agree that Apple is not “doing this intentionally to promote sale of new devices. They are doing business with bad ethics. Not at all desired from such big name.” as stated in post by SatishRawat…I myself have not experienced any of these problems with any of the updates and if I did I would be using another phone but I find my iPhone has fewer problems than other family members non-Apple phone. Nothing is perfect.

After numerous attempts to find a user name not taken I realize this is more than a coincident. I and a coworker with diffent apple phones also have same problem after update.this is the last time I own one. will be gong back to other brands. My wife has my five year old Samsung ,still works!My I-phone is two years old! My kids told me not to buy one, once I should have listen to them. Very dissatisfied with apple at this point. Last night powered it down so batt would be good in morning and it was 1% in 8 hours turned off. Past warranty they go to heck (want to use profanity) . Not a coincident I think they do intently! And done
My phone is only a year old and I had to upgrade my phone because of a battery issue last! Is there any way to remove iOS 14 it’s killing my phone and this is not fair I cannot afford any phone.
I also updated 14.8.1 and I was at 100% battery life and within 15 minutes after unplugging my phone I was down to 1% battery life. This has got to be away for Apple to sell new phones and if that’s the case I hate Apple
I had installed the new ios 14 and my battery drained from 90% to 10% without me even touching the phone. This has never happened this crazy I don’t want to switch to different phone service but if i got to I will but loved my phone until u all did update
I agree
