Batter life for iphone 12 pro max

I’ve had my iPhone 12 pro max for just over a year. At first the battery life was great, lasting 48 hours and more between charges. Now, i’m lucky if i get 6 hours per charge. My usage has t changed. i’m wondering if anyone else is having the same problem. Any comments will be appreciated.

The last update killed my battery! - Apple Community


Leave your phone plugged in and charging overnight. Once the battery is charged the phone will switch to using power from the power supply. Once the power supply is removed the phone will switch to using battery power.


 Do not make a habit of closing all apps. It takes more system resources to restart an app from scratch than it does for a suspended app to pick up where it left off.


Make sure optimized charging is turned on: Settings > Battery > Battery Health > Optimized Battery Charging


Your battery will chemically age over time, there is nothing you can do to avoid this.
