iPhone Battery Drain even when not in use

Hi

So I charged my phone yesterday upto 100% at 9:21 pm then went to bed.

I Woke up at 9:21 and it was at 83%.

Mind you, i’ve turned off Background App Refresh so that updates are not installed, as well as turning off the WiFi before bed.

On Top of that, the battery has lost a significant amount of charge within the short time I’ve used it. Check the attached screenshot.

I don’t know whether it’s the fact that I just got this phone less than a month ago, and recently updated the software to iOS 16.2.

Please help.

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 16

Hey there cgachini_,

We recommend looking over the information below to help with the battery on your iPhone:

“Battery life” is the amount of time a device runs before it needs to be recharged. “Battery lifespan” is the amount of time a battery lasts until it needs to be replaced. One factor affecting battery life and lifespan is the mix of things you do with your device. No matter how you use your device, there are ways to help. A battery’s lifespan is related to its “chemical age,” which is more than just the passage of time. It includes different factors, such as the number of charge cycles and how it was cared for. Follow these tips to maximize battery performance and help extend battery lifespan. For example, keep iPhone half-charged when it’s stored for the long term. Also avoid charging or leaving iPhone in hot environments, including direct sun exposure, for extended periods of time.
