battery drain ios 17.2 iphone 15 pro max

After updating my iPhone 15 Pro Max to the latest iOS 17.2, I’ve noticed that battery drains faster than before. Despite the battery health showing good in settings, the phone requires recharging on the same day, even after being fully charged. I’m seeking advice on how to resolve this unexpected battery drain issue !!

To prevent your phone battery from draining quickly and to last all day, go to settings - privacy and security - location services - system services - turn off important locations.

Husband and I each have brand new 15 Pro, they're 3 weeks old. We both updated to 17.2 - mine is fine but my husband's battery is now worse than his old SE Gen 2. It didn't even last him the morning. This is not really acceptable after spending over £1k.

Using 15 pro max. Till 17.2 update my battery life is insane. Whatever I do I charge my phone in every 1.5 days. I was just mind blown and impressed. Now, dear apple just released 17.2.1 surprised update with no release notes. And guess what my battery is just draining way too fast. So stupid. Apple should give option 1 degree backward to get to the previous version. Bad experience till 2 days. More bugs. I got 80% limit battery but it charged to 85%. I think they messed up something with battery programs.

Same experience with 13 Pro, this update is killing the battery big time.

My 11 pro max has been awful since I updated to iOS 17 I was hoping that these other updates would cure it

not used my phone much today but already on 46%

This is so bad. It's iphone 15 pro max and not yet 2 weeks in use 100% battery health and after updating to ios 17.2 it's clear that it drains the battery into the void. Hope it's fixed ASAP.

Same with my iphone 11 ( battery replaced recently ) and apple watch 7.

It's been terrible and here I though it would be better.

Apple's habit of slowing and bottlenecking older phones is not going to go down well. Hopefully more users share their experience and Apple should be held accountable for these bad practices. How are they not testing these before they are rolled out to the users ?

The only thing I have learned from the Apple products I have used so far is to never update them. Because each update reduces the battery charge and we have to charge it more than twice a day.

I have my 14 pro, i get the 17.2 update and my phone was heating and battery lose 10% at least one hour. Please fixit. Don’ make me regret chose Apple.

Same issue with iPhone 15 pro. Battery drains sooo quickly. Very disappointed with this update. Needs fixing asap from Apple.

Not only is it draining insanely fast my phone is also getting really hot.

Apple you have got to update your IOS version to fix this battery drainage problem. We spent thousands to get the LATEST device to experience this is unacceptable. Stop exploiting customers. Tq

I updated to 17.2 from 17.1 recently (15PM, bought 5 days ago, so I knew it wasn’t the phone) increased battery drain and screen idle time, restarted the phone using flight mode and i think it has fixed itself (look at the screen idle times before and now, one in the lighter blue color)

Even after the recent update to iOS 17.2.1, the issue persists.
