Battery drain on Ipad Air 4 watching AppleTV+

I have just subscribed to the AppleTV+ and have been watching it on my IPad Air 4. I realised that the app drained 90% of my battery in under 5 hours or so. Is the AppleTV+ app not optimised for iOS?

iPad Air, iPadOS 14

Brand new 7th gen ipad - Battery life only 4hrs max – Video playback I have a brand new 7th gen iPad. I watch a lot of Sling TV on my iPad. Unfortunately the battery is down to 60% in 1.5 hrs. By this rate I will only get 4hrs of battery if I continue to watch. I checked which apps are using my battery and I see that SlingTV shows 100%. A visit to Apple store for this issue resulted in they resetting my iPad and reconfiguring it as a new iPad but it hasn’t helped in increasing the battery life. iPad is suppose to give close to 9hrs of video playback, right? I wonder if others are also experiencing this issue. I have a 4year old LG Tablet that is giving better battery life than my iPad running the same App. Another aspect worth mentioning is that SlingTV does require access to location to provide local channels. I wonder if it tries to keep searching for location every few second, that will definitely kill battery especially if I am indoors.

Battery draining issue over YouTube app Battery draining much faster when using YouTube app in iPhone 14 (New iPhone 14 with ios 16.5.1). When using other platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime for the same period as youtube, there is no issue of excessive battery consumption. Even on saved videos, i have tested. Note - All tips and tricks of battery saving have been tried and done. No further suggestions are needed. Want a target-specific solution from Apple (only YouTube). If not, i have to believe that the iPhone 14 (ios) <= android phone of the past.
