iPhone 6 battery drain

Since installing IOS 14 my iPhone drains very quickly. I have changed brightness, turned off Bluetooth, Siri and adjusted many settings, however it still drains overnight when not being used, even on battery saver mode. Is this an issue with the iOS update?

iPhone 6s, iOS 14

iOS 14 on an iPhone 6:

An iPhone 6 is incompatible with iOS 14. So, how did you install it? Your device is shown as an iPhone 6s, which is compatible.

See Here: Supported iPone Models - iOS 14 - Apple Support


Where to Go From Here:

I. View the Battery Health?:

When the Battery Health is 80% or lower, it is time for a new battery.

  1. Go To: Settings
  2. Tap: Battery
  3. Tap: Battery Health
  4. View: Percentage.

Is it less than 80%?


II. Get this Serviced:

You have a One-YearOut-of-the-BoxLimited-Warranty. So, if less than 80% contact Apple Support, and see if you can get this serviced.
