Battery

i got a mac M1 on November 2022

battery health of it is 96% and it was working fine but since last few days it started to get overheated within 3-4 minutes of using it ( without getting CPU involved ) and battery gets drained so fast since then.

also i was wondering that updating the macOS will solve this problem but it didn't.

may you please advice what can be the problen or how can I fix this issue?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.4

It would be important to know what software is being run in the background. If there is any Anti-Virus or Cleaner apps installed, they could be consuming resources when no other apps are active. You may want to check out EtreCheck and post the report here using the Additional Text option.
