is Apple going to fix the common battery drain issue with iOS 15?

Seems everyone is experiencing unusual battery drain with iOS 15. Me, too (iPhone 12 pro, iOS 15.1). Apple and some users are claiming this is just because extra app downloading after update. I don’t quite believe that. Does anyone have a sense Apple is working a fix?


iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15

Nobody in these user to user forum would know what Apple is going to do, unless they announce it.


If you feel you have an issue with your battery, schedule an appointment with the Genius Bar and take it to the nearest Apple store.

EVERYONE? All 500 million users on iOS 15? I sincerely doubt, that, because if it was Everyone there would be literally millions of posts about it. Anyway, I know it is not everyone, because I have 2 phones that have no problem with unusual battery drain. So your basic premise fails.

I wrote "seems everyone". I think that could reasonably be interpreted as meaning many, not necessarily 0.5 B users. Check out other related threads herein and you'll see this issue is cropping up frequently. My premise, as stated, DOES NOT fail. And, if you don't specify your phone model and iOS, your final comment isn't very useful.
