Insane Battery Drain on the 15 pro

This is crazy the way the 15 pro is draining.

By the time I know it is dropping percentage by the second

I think a Lamborghini fuel meter also won't drop this bad 🙄

Come on apple after paying this much this should not be what we get.

100% at 7:00 am

Few what's apps few calls and by 9:00 am 70%

Like your kidding me right 🙄🙄

Troubleshooting a Draining iPhone Battery:


A. Battery Drain Info:

  2. Scroll Down: to "Your battery's maximum capacity"



B. Verify the Baterry Health Percentage:

Apple recommends you get a new battery, once the Battery Health reaches 80% or lower. When the Battery Health is 80% or lower, it is time for a new battery. Unfortunately, these if no way to know how, nor when, then percentage decrease occurred. So see if it tine for a new battery...

  1. Go To: Settings
  2. Tap: Battery
  3. Tap: Battery Health
  4. View: [the percentage]
  5. Is it 80% or less?  If so, it is time for a new battery.



C. Troubleshooting the Battery:


D. Report this to Apple
