16.5.1(c) Update Fixing Battery Drain:

No. This is not a feature of the update.

Hello 16-5-1!

I’ve seen you somewhere before. I wonder where. 🤔

Anyways, no, iOS 16.5.1 (c) did not fix the battery drain issue. It was a security patch.

What seems to fix the battery drain issue, however, is the encrypted backup and restore process:

The links to do this appear below:

Link for how to Back Up and Restore: Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or to iCloud - Apple Support

Link for putting iPhone in DFU Mode: If you can't update or restore your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support

Note: The above material is not my work. Any credit should go to Michael Brooks1 who originally posted it here: Jun 27, 2023 8:55 AM in response to Jubalub. 

Please report back wether performing the above process made the battery drainage worse, fixed it, or if you noticed no change at all. 

I hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

Troubleshooting iPhone Battery Draining:

Unfortunately, there is no way to determine when nor why the Battery Healthdecreased.

A. Battery Drain Info:

The iPhone battery will drain, unless it is plugged in and charging. With lots installed, the charge would be slower. As for how fast it would drain the battery, that would depend on the battery health and the volume (sound) you use.
