Battery drain on iOS 14.6
my battery life on iOS 14.6 is terrible… is it just me or anyone is experiencing this thing too??
Question marked as
So after putting up with this issue of the App Store using around 50% of my battery each day for nearly two weeks (and with activity levels at 100% every hour, with almost all of it in the background) I contacted apple support online chat. They suggested a few things that I had already tried and so we went to the full restore whilst the phone is plugged into a computer. So I reset my phone 11 via my Mac (following their instructions) and then I restored via iCloud backup .
I have now had ten hours of normal battery behaviour; usually by this point in the day my iPhone would be nearly dead. It is still on 56% 👍🏻👏🏻
So if anyone on here is struggling with battery life since iOS 14.6 was released and has tried a number of things but not yet tried the full restore plugged into a computer (which is better than an untethered restore according to the apple support chat representative) then I would urge you try it. Yes, it is a pain resetting the phone and waiting for it to restore from backup (and I now need to reconfigure my banking apps and wallet) - but I'm very happy that the problem seems to be resolved.
Cheers

Same here, since I updated my IPhone 12 to 14.6 it reduces 1% it's 2months old from me
Normal, no
Expected if you mischarge your device, yes
Where can I find “find my network “ in iPhone 12 Pro Max
Well here is my proof, where is yours?
You might be right, I don’t know…
But the tone of your answer is arrogant 😏
I have the drainage problem, also lost 6 % of my battery health since the update, so you know…
Yes, everything is off.
What do you mean « the Podcast app has gotten better with yesterday’s update ? »
i didn’t see any update for Apple Podcast?
This is what I am referring to.
That feedback form does not list iOS version 14.6 in the options. It stops at 14.5 🤦🏻♂️
I submitted with clear comments and did NOT pick an iOS version since this was possible. I should have made clear: it is not a required field to answer.
Glad to hear you submitted feedback regardless. For some reason, it can sometimes take a while for the latest version of iOS to appear there.
Since i have updated my iPhone x to ios 14.6 it keeps on draining the battery and it restarts by it self after that it doesnot show neither battery percentage nor battery health
why apple why you are degrading the old devices by bugs
You’re not alone, bro. XS Max + iOs 14.6 = overheating and battery drain issue.
Inmediate fix requested.
They have ripped us off…
