Why does my battery die faster since last update ?

Since the last update, 16.5, my iPhone 13 battery dies SUPER fast. Apple trying to force me to buy a new phone. Scammers!

Changes in software such as upgrades may introduce new features which may add to power drain and heat generation. Check the Battery Health feature to see if there are apps or services running that use a lot of power. If there are, decide if you need them running all the time or can turn off a service when an app is in the background.
