Health app draining battery on iOS14
Since updating to iOS14 the health app has been draining my battery. Can anyone help?
iPhone 11
Same here. Health app is now draining the battery at 30%.
iPhone 11 Pro iOS 14.
Question marked as
I’m glad I found this thread and that I wasn’t alone. Depleting battery, hot phone, unable to delete apps, Apple Watch not syncing and any app related to health constantly crashing.
I’d already noticed that Health app was always at the top of battery usage, but I hadn’t quite clocked how much storage it claimed to be taking up.
14.2PB.
PB. Not MB. Not GB. Not TB. I had to Google what on Earth a PB was. A Petabyte.
Nothing I tried helped other than to back-up and perform a fresh install having disabled syncing of Health app. That is how I spent my Sunday morning, but it seems to have worked. No more battery drain, Apple Watch syncing and Health app behaving itself.

Nope, I have a series 3 and am having the same issues. :(
also updated to latest iwatch update...
Have the same issue here, iPhone 11 Pro Max and apple warch S2.
my handy is now quite unusable, it heats like coal right out of fire.
Yeah I sat through a genius telling me the same as well... I decided not to follow their L1 troubleshooting support.
Same. Just updated to iOS 14 couple of days ago.. Health app taking up 7 Petabytes which is impossible. Storage bar shows 26 GB used out of 64 GB used though.
I am also facing the same issue. after the iOS 14 upgrade, I’m having to charge my iPhone 11 at least 2 times a day and it is also getting overheated during use
I’m havIng the exact same issue, battery drain caused by the Health app, and 27 PB of health data on my phone.
I’m having the same issue. My health app says it’s taking up 56 PB of storage. I only have 64gb. Phone gets super hot and dies super fast
How do you disable it?
I haven’t figured out how to do it and from what I can tell no one else has either
I am having exact same problem? Is there any resolution? I was hoping Apple will come back with a fix but it’s been almost a week and ni fix yet
I’ve tried most of the things people are recommending with no success. I’m assuming Apple will come out with an update right away. Hopefully
I can’t even do half of these because when I select whatever it is, I get the spinning thing and it locks up. I hope Apple fixes this soon.
Wow, thanks for nothing Apple genius. I’d be frustrated too!
