Battery drain in iOS 14.7.1

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

I'm on iPhone 12 Pro max with 100% battery health also experiencing the same issue, see like mine was worse as it was last charge at 90%, left idle on table not use and suddenly in an hour it drop to 70%...pls resolve its apple, this is something very super unacceptable, if nothing is done than u will lose a lot of future potential customers and current supporters!!!

My iphone 11 had a decent battery backup

before updating to ios 14.7.1 now after the updation am facing severe battery draining issues.. i used to get more than 1 day of life when charged till 100% but now within 3-4 hrs my battery is draining to nearly half. I always need to

put my phone in low power mode now. This is ridiculous from apple’s new update. So i request you to sort it out as soon as possible.

Hi

Yes, I too am experiencing horrific battery drain. Even with my phone “dumbed-down” with everything

de-activated and NO apps/programs running in background, no refresh, no email push, no nothing…even in battery save mode and airplane mode….

my phone's battery is trying to commit suicide.

I have an extremely well taken care of iPhone 6s that has experienced little to no issues…..until this flaky iOS 14.7.1 update happened.

F___ Apple😖

Of course you’re going to blame the battery! But only a week ago, before 14.7 or 14.7.1 EVERYTHING WAS JUST FINE! The last time I looked the battery was at 85%, now it’s “down to 69%” It charges upbto 100% and then I can watch it go down 99, 98, 97, 96… all in a matter of seconds. Then it randomly shuts off. When it powers back on, and it’s plugged in, it might say it’s at 97-100%, or it might show the phone is at 1% EVEN THOUGH ITS STILL PLUGGED IN AND WAS JUST AT 100%

This update did something to my battery performance.


I do not appreciate this ‘forced obsolescence’ and you cannot deny this as it’s been proven many times!
