Trying to work out why my iPad Pro is draining battery like crazy after the 14.7.a update … also charging SO slowly. Any fixes yet? Clearly the update has bugs which cause slightly older models (a 4 month old 2018 iPad - purchased from Apple in lieu of a warranty repair).
High battery utilisation is not unusual following a system software update - as background tasks, such as re-indexing the file system, typically take several days.
If battery utilisation is excessive, one or more forced-restarts of your iPad may resolve the problem:
If the problem cannot be cleared, it may be necessary to restore your iPad - initially to Factory Settings - and then from your iCloud or iTunes backup.
Restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings – Apple Support
Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support
You’ll need access to either a PC (with iTunes installed) or a Mac (with iTunes or Finder - as appropriate for the installed version of MacOS).
Download and use iTunes for Windows – Apple Support
Update to the latest version of iTunes – Apple Support
Use of a PC or Mac computer is unavoidable. If you don’t have access to a suitable computer of your own, that of a helpful friend or family member will suffice. Alternatively, the technicians at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) will be delighted to assist.
