Has anyone else noticed that Wallet is draining battery quickly since 14.5 update? In battery usage it shows 1 minute or less of activity for Wallet but that it contributed to around 30% of battery use over a day. I have noticed it a couple days in a row.

Same Thing happening to me. 1 min of screen time but using 60% of battery. We also have a shared Apple Card and my Apple Watch is dying too. Hopefully this thread will pick up some steam.
I don't use Apple Watch but I will have occasion to use Apple Pay today. I'll let you know what happens.
Wow! Yes, I didn’t notice that. I have a 12 Pro and over 10 days the wallet has used 57% of the battery.
Do we have to do anything to implement the fix, or was it on their end?
It was on Apples side. It wasn’t even an update. It was just back to normal.
Still not working for me. 46% battery use by wallet in last 24 hours. Come on Apple… get this fixed please!
Well, I'm on 15 and it's still there, so...
I'm currently going back and forth with Apple support to (hopefully) get them to understand that this is a software problem and flag it as needing attention. Stay tuned.
Jon did the battery drain get better after yesterdays update?
Yes having identical issue 48%
My update: I’ve been without the drain for 2 weeks now. I stopped sharing my Apple Card with my kids first - that did nothing to help. Then I removed the card from my wife’s phone (who is an account co-owner). My phone still says she’s a co-owner, but it’s off of her phone now. Since doing that, I can open the app, use the card and everything’s normal battery usage. I’m going on 2 weeks of that working. I also changed location for the wallet to be only when using the app. That alone didn’t do anything to help, but I still have that setting on. I do not have an Apple Watch.
