My iPhone battery draining faster after iOS 17.4.1 update

I have an almost brand new iPhone 13 (2 weeks old) and I just updated it to iOS 17.4.1 last night. Since that the battery runs out way faster, before the update i could use it for 20 minutes without losing 2 percents. I’m aware that battery life decreases after a while, but not in 2 weeks. Do you think a new update will change this?

I found an amazing fix. I too was searching for the solution to the battery drainage after the 17.4.1 and after that no change in my usage routine but I was charging my phone 2-3 times a day and it was driving me nuts.

Found this in Redit: Go to Settings>Accessibility>Face ID and attention> Switch off Attention Aware Features.

It worked after that.

Now I am back to charging my phone after 1&1/2 days
