Charged my phone to 100% at 11pm. In the morning at 7 am phone was dead with no battery!
When I looked at the Battery usage in 24 hours, I was surprised to see that the camera had use 82% of the battery for a 1 min usage 😔

It appears the problem has been solved! When I visited the Apple store, initially an employee suggested I hard reboot the phone (Press the Volume Up Key, Let Go, Press the Volume Down Key, Let Go, & Kepp pressing and holding the Power Off key till the Apple Logo Appears). This is what I did and appears to have solved the problem for now.
The Genius bar representative suggested I need to reset the phone to a new phone and reinstall the apps. Her view was when the install was being downloaded, it was possible that the download was interrupted for a second causing a bad install. I didn't like the idea, as the answer to every problem is not "to reset the phone.
However, the Hard reboot of the phone appears to have helped. Thank you to everyone who replied.
Hello Fiberly, Request you take up your lost work hours claim with Apple. God Bless!
Even I faced the same problem. Battery was drained in the morning. It was the Camera, what got the battery.😌
Yes, the camera uses a lot of energy. But if you follow the best practice of charging overnight you will never have a dead battery in the morning.
I woke up this morning to a dead battery on my iPhone Pro with iOS 16.6. It was plugged in overnight. Main battery usage was Camera Audio, 92%. WTF…?
If it happens once I can understand but for the last two nights in fact last night I made sure all apps were closed and had to make sure that my phone is locked and not accidentally swiped right 😔
Did you manage to get it fixed? If yes, what is the solution? It happened to me last night and I hope it won’t happen again tonight
Very suspicious resolution, no cause identified, unfort does not work for me, other ideas are welcomed here...
