Hi,
Battery drain is happening after updated to iOS 14.7, the percent is jumping from 77% to 71% without almost any use, I am using the iPhone 11 Pro normal and my battery health is still on 100%.
Is anyone experiencing this too?
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 14
There IS a fix that works, guys. I had battery drain issues after 14.7.1 and now I don’t. First thing you can try: Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings. Then charge it and wait a couple hours. If that doesn’t fix the battery drain, you can connect your iPhone to a Mac (if you have one) and do a system restore via Finder. When that’s complete, set it up as a new phone. If you don’t have a Mac, do an iCloud backup, then go to Settings/General/Reset/Erase all Content and Settings. Set it up as a new phone. Once you’ve set it up as a new phone, if you don’t want to manually redownload your apps and customize your settings, you can restore again from your backup. I don’t think this will reinstall the battery drain “bug.” Give those things a try and let us know if the suggestions did or did not work for you.
Battery looks fairly dead at that point, replacement battery or pray and hope for a fix in the next update
This is not a battery fault, it’s a software issue, before update this battery works perfectly fine
After the last iOS update 14.7.1 my phone’s (iPhone 11) battery seems to be decreasing at twice the speed. Doesn’t even last 12 hours. It was performing fine till a day before the update.
Anyone else facing the same problem?
Usually not much to respond to, but in this case the situation is ridiculous.
After 14.7 / 14.7.1 my iPhone SE 2020 acts like an old laptop that can only run on an adapter.
It seems there is no battery any more in my iPhone.
Charging to 100% is useless, it drains in a few hours while doing nothing.
Idk if it’s just my iPhone but it seems that True Tone must be helping a bit with battery on my iPhone ( I’ve got iPhone 12) and after enabling True Tone it seems to be getting a bit better? Well idk for sure yet but it seems helpful at the moment
The tech at the Apple Store showed me this process using a Mac obviously not a pc.
However, she cautioned that success with this approach can be limited and that the best bet was erase and restore.
Yet it is good to hear that the update approach has worked for some having issues after 14.7.1 install.
Nah, I give up. Seems like every solution helps for a while, but then again phone starts to melt.
What I’ve tried so far during last 2 months:
After every fix I saw that battery becomes ok. But next day all of a sudden I feel that phone is warm, and battery dropped by 20% in an hour, all while standby. Funny enough I have cheap old redmi phone which I use for development, and it lasts a week on standby.
I’ve tried to hook up Xcode and watch activity monitor, but after I connected bug seems missing and I can’t even make my phone warm. Anyway, I don’t even know what to watch, because most of the processes don’t show up at google, or maybe it’s gpu that works hard.
14.7.0 started the battery drain problem on my 6s and 14.7.1 seems to make it worse. I have the apple extra battery pack and the phone keeps shutting itself off (peak power issue) or my battery fully drains in minutes! Argh, Apple, why are you so bad at this?!?
ios 14.5.1 was the best, this is joke I have the same issue that was be in 14.2, drop from 50 to 0% procent and shut down
I don’t want to update system to 14.7.1 but I had to do that cuz mobile data stop working for no reason, now I have battery issues #apple #battery_bugs
as i said this is standard in apple updates. as soon as update 14.7.1 was released, I read on the forum that the old error with a battery drop, e.g. from 50 to 0% in 5 seconds returned, so for half a year I used the 14.5.1 version on which everything was as it should, but suddenly one day they stopped to run applications using mobile data, I had to install updates ....
The battery drain problem on iOS/iPad OS14.7.1 is real.
With earlier versions of iOS/iPad OS, my iPad was easily holding for a week with a moderate use. Now it’s giving up within 2 days!
Strangely, my iPhone 11 Pro’s battery health dropped from 99% to 93% in just 1 month. I’m sure, the culprit is 14.7.1 and it’s stability.
I have had the same issue on iphone 6s. I upgraded to 14.7.1 after replacing with a new battery.
2 days ago had got the battery replaced (with a genuine apple battery) at an authorized service center and after that I upgraded to ios 14.7.1
Tried everything:
Still not resolved. Battery drains out in a few hours without any activity.
Wish I had not upgraded. Also since 14.7.1 is a signed version so cannot downgrade as well. Apple please help!!

Rachelle ~ The long process of applying an iOS update can kill a weak, aging battery...
Is your iPhone 6S Plus's battery still the original one?
And what's the Maximum Capacity % here?...
Settings > Battery > Battery Health

I now have to keep mine plugged in to use my phone because it keeps shutting down from battery problems since this update. Mines been all over the place but not holding charge or goes from 100 percent to 1 percent. Apple acted like they knew nothi ng of this when i went to support
My batteries health was great. Ive never had a problem eith it at all and was performing 100 percent peak capacity. I do slot of music, play games, text alot, my battery was fine until i downloaded new update and it immediately went straight down and bad thing is i only updated because i needed apple to check another problem i was having and they want u to update to date
