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.
My wife has an iPhone SE that’s about a year old, and I have a 6s. Both of our phones are experiencing SIGNIFICANT AND RAPID BATTERY DRAIN after the “upgrade” to 14.7.1.
My 6s had a battery replacement before the pandemic started, the replacement was done in our local Apple store, and it was doing fine until this update. Now I see it start in the AM with 100% charge, then it drops to 10% within 3-4 hours! I’ve tried all the suggestions, including resetting network settings, without any improvement. Very disappointed in the update...
I have 6 s plus and after updating it my phone is barely holding a charge almost has to be plugged in all the time and my battery was perfectly fine before. Matter of fact my phone now keeps shutting down now. So nor really that useable
Thanks for your post, it’s a pity the new battery hasn’t solved the problem. I was thinking of replacing the battery in my 6s but don’t think I’ll bother now. Wish I’d not upgraded to 14.7.1 following advice from an Apple person. My battery percentage goes into freefall after charging.
Mine is showing me the same message as you mentioned since the last update, I hope this do not affect the battery life until a fix.
I noticed quick battery drain on both iPad and IPhone. Just updated yesterday afternoon
I have and XR on 14.6 and I have not experienced battery issues of any sort. Correct me if I am wrong but 14.6 was when the drain issues started, no?
Hi, in my case it start when did the update to 14.7
Same for me on an IPhone 6s.
It was great before I installed 14.7.1. Battery life is truly awful now. Gutted!!! 🥺
Same issue after 14.7.1 update. Check out my recent battery usage…
Same for me, after upgrade to 14.7.1.
I used to have 40-50% of remaining battery at end of the day, now battery goes to zero. iPhone 11 Pro Max
Also I did this on a iPhone 12 Pro.
FYI, I always update my iPhone and iPad using my Mac instead of over the air updates. I had the battery drain issue after initially updating iOS with my Mac.
I fear this is my future as the backup (to pc), erase, and restore (from pc) did not keep me from needing to charge to get through yesterday.
I have the same problem too just after updating to ios 14.7.1
is there anything to do about it?
i feel like i have an old battery
mine is at 97% of health “iphone xs 265”
You are still lucky bro… I have an iPhone 12 Pro and it’s battery health is already 92%
