iPhone 14 Battery Drain Issues

I am sorry that the 16.6 did not fix your phone. It fixed several other people’s

phones that I know. Except for one person, and their phone wasn’t fixed. After downloading the 16.6 all of my issues are away with the battery draining and the phone getting hot and stopping the charge because it was too hot. That person is going to get a new phone if you have a warranty or something like that with Apple you can exchange your phone for the new one. I was going to do that two days after I download the 16.6 update, but since it fixed the phone I canceled the appointment with Best Buy to exchange my phone. All I can wish u isngood luck. I feel really bad for you.

There is no roll back on iOS

If you are saying that a message appears on the screen that your phone is overheating, then make an appointment at the Apple Store or take the phone to an authorized Apple Service shop to them run some checks on the phone.

If you are not seeing a message that the phone is overheating, then it might feel warm or hot, but it is not overheating. But, you could still take the phone in and have it checked out if you want.

After updating to iOS 16.5, my iPhone 14 is getting very hot during use even when not charging. No overheating message, but enough heat to cause discomfort. My Face ID also started failing and won't let me set up an alternative appearance. I've had this phone for barely three weeks. It was working seamlessly until after the iOS 16.5 update.

I am having the same problem with my iPhone 14 after the iOS 16.5.1 update. I never had any problems at all before the update with heating or overheating or any messages about stopping my charging because my phone was getting hot. Plus, my iPhone battery now drains rapidly. I have to charge it all the time now. This is the truth. This is happening and I would like to know what Apple is going to do about it. Instead of ignoring it because it’s true it’s happening after the update. Help us please. We really need help with this please I just bought this phone a few months ago in. In February I never had any problems with it until after the update. A lot of people have told me that they don’t like to upgrade or update their phones. Now I know why. Please help us.

Same issue here. Went to bed with 100% woke up 7 hours later at 19% didn’t use the phone at all….what is going on????

phone constantly stops charging because temp too hot yet battery health continues to say 100% so can’t get it fixed…feels shady.

Me too! All better. Check out the image below. Yesterday, 250% battery, meaning I had to charge it twice to get six hours versus today less than 50% of the battery for six hours after upgrading to 16.6!

I have visited Apple twice regarding the battery issue with my iPhone 14 Pro after updating to 16.6 these issues started happening. The first time, they suggested that the problem might be with my charger and recommended I buy a 20W block. I followed their advice and purchased the new charger, but it didn't improve the battery life.

Feeling frustrated, I went to a different Apple location a few days later, and they thought it could be a software-related problem. They had me perform a hard reset on my phone and set it up as new, hoping it would resolve the issue. However, even after trying this, the battery continues to drain rapidly. In just under 5 minutes, my phone's battery goes down by 3%.

I requested a battery replacement, but Apple refused, claiming that my battery health is still at 100%. Nonetheless, I am convinced that the battery is faulty, especially because I never encountered such problems with any of the 12 iPhones I owned in the past.

I'm unsure of what to do next, as I've exhausted the troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple. I want to find a solution to this battery drain problem as soon as possible.

iPhone 14 Pro here.

The Battery drain alone is one thing. I get that Always-On Display, heavy background activity etc. might have a negative influence here.

But the Battery health is a different issue as it is a hardware related indicator of the battery quality.

When I first heard about the issue about a week ago I checked mine an it was 92%. Which is low after only 11 months. Most of my iPhones were still over 95% after two years.

Chat support checked the battery, couldn't find issues and told me to make an oppointment on site in an Apple Store. Went there yesterday. They didn't find any issues as well but health was then at 91%. But they won't help until it reaches 80%.

So I checked today again and health is now 90% ... so it degraded 2% in about a week.

Scheduled another appointment for today because this (in connection with the battery drain I am experiencing too) is unacceptable in my opinion.

As for now my Battery health went down 3% in 10 days (from 92% to 89%).

At this rate I will be at 80% in another month (of course about two weeks after the iPhone gets one year old).

And Apple is still denying that there is a problem. One appointment with chat support and two on-site and all they say „there is nothing we can do“.

I am also facing same issue in my 14 pro ios 16.5, battery draining so fast. Is this any hardware issue or software?

I’ve been having the exact same issue on iphone and ipad as well after updating to ios 16.5. Lesson learned do not update to new os versions.

Ok. Is APPLE coming out with a Fix for the batteries rapidly draining & the iPhones getting too Hot when charging? Or can they fix it ??!!

This is definitely the update that caused this. I swear My 13 pro max was at 100% battery life prior to updating now at 95%????

For about two months, probably after upgrading the iOS my battery on my 14 Pro will drain 80% in eight hours with all apps closed and in airplane mode or with wifi or with cellular. It came on suddenly, and Apple support has no solutions. And Apple care has no way of knowing what apps or services that are actually running in the background that’s causing the drain.
