iPhone 12 battery draining fast

I think pulling the cable out during charging causes irrevocable damage to the battery, so it doesn't charge properly.

You are incorrect.

You can disconnect the charging cable whenever you like, it will not damage the battery.

This is the only thing that has happened, that I can think of, why my battery has stopped working properly. Could it be that the battery is only now charging the 25% of the battery life? I'm not an expert, but it is very strange.

Hi I just looked at my battery and it seems to have stabilised over the last couple of hours (I've been recording it every hour). The only thing I did in this time was to clear the history of my cookies on my Mac (Safari). Could this have been causing it? External cookies on my Mac which is using the same wi-fi connection as my phone! I'll keep monitoring my phone and let you know if this has solved the problem.

Just woke up and my battery is still stable, only used 4% over night. This seems to have fixed the problem. So anyone having the same issue should clear the history on your browser on your Mac to see if this works. Good luck.

Same here, there is a significant ramp too steep for an iPhone on idle. And it gets warm sometimes when I carry it in my pack or in the outer pocket, too warm for "doing nothing". I had a contact with Apple Support, their answer: technically it's all to the best.

I had the same problem with energy drain. Cleared the cookies history on Safari on my iMac which is on the same wi-fi network, and battery is back to working perfectly again. It's worth a try if you use a Mac.

Do you mean deleting the browser history, along with the cookies, or do you mean something else? Because I did that, and it didn‘t have any effect (other than that me needing to log into all the websites again).

This really can’t be a solution, its just a coincidence that you cleared your history and your battery problem got solved. Non of us have been able to solve this issue with this method. A lot of people have mentioned so many ways like this but its just a coincidence that their battery problem is solved. We have tried even more than these solutions like contacting the apple support team and going to the service centre and if that has not been any help, then these weird solutions will definitely not be of any help.

I can't explain what happened, I just know that my battery is working fine now. Have you got any other devices, maybe you should try clearing the history on Safari on your phone, or any other Apple device you may have linked up.

I have restored my phone multiple times, its been at the service centre under observation for 24 hour's. Nothing has helped till date so I don’t even wanna try and do anything more to fix this issue until apple has a fix from their side. I’ve pretty much given up on this issue and if the mew iphone coming in September or October doesn’t have this problem I’ll just trade in this device for a new one.

I am also experiencing the same issue . I had noticed many time in night my iPhone 12 was 28-30% charge. When I wake up it was off there was no battery. And I only use 4g network. My background apps are also on close button.

And I had also buy 20 watt adapter from icrest it takes 40-50 min for 80% but after 80-100 it take 60-100 min more it means my iPhone 12 taking 220-250 min (2-2.5 hr) in charging full battery from 0-100

The warranty on the phone just exists for namesake. Apple support doesn’t value their customers anymore. They tell me losing 25-30% for a 1.5 hours call is normal. I have been using iphone right from the 2g and have never see this much battery get consumed during talktime. With previous iphones i have seen that talk time consumes the least battery but this is iphone is no where close to that. The 12 pro heats up too very easily and while using the lidar scanner it heats which maybe normal because of the mechanism but using the camera shouldn’t cause so much of a drain.

Can we turn off standby. Your information is very helpful for me. I am debating on this. I have 11promax and I have problem with this. Apple has no answer for me. They say get a new one. When I try to answer my call my call gets disconnected. I have to let people know I will call back because of this situation. I am frustrated.

Turning off optimised battery charging means that the time taken to charge the iphone from 80% to 100% would be quicker. If optimised battery charging is on the charging rate to slow to down to large extent between 80% to 100%. If you charge your phone at a fixed point of time everyday, iphone will recognise your charging pattern and your iphone would only be charged to 100% when you actually need to use it.
