Excessive Battery Drain on Home and Lock Screen Post iOS 17.0.2 on my Iphone 14 Plus

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to urgently address a severe issue I have encountered since updating to iOS 17.0.2. The recent statistics regarding the Home and Lock Screen activity on my device are deeply concerning, indicating a significant increase in battery consumption.


Here is a detailed breakdown of the Home and Lock Screen usage over the past week:

|------------|----------------------|-----------------------|---------------|

| 25-Sep-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 52 Mins on Screen | 4% |

| 26-Sep-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 53 Mins on Screen | 4% |

| 27-Sep-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 48 Mins on Screen | 4% |

| 28-Sep-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 1 Hr 7M on Screen | 5% |

| 29-Sep-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 56 Mins on Screen | 35% |

| 30-Sep-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 1 Hr 1M on Screen | 24% |

| 01-Oct-23 | Home and Lock Screen | 55 Mins on Screen | 24% |
