IOS 17.6.1 battery draining.

Since updating to 17.6.1, has anyone else noticed that their battery is draining faster? Given my wife and I are noticing the same thing across our iPhones - AND - iPads.


We updated all of our mobiles and pads in the past 12 months. All five devices are draining faster than usual.

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17

Hello,

With any new version of iOS there are always maintenance and re-indexing tasks to be performed. It should settle down in a few days. These are the standard steps for short battery life: 

1) Have you tried a restart?  If not, do it now.

2) Go to Settings > Battery > BATTERY USAGE BY APP to see the apps that are consuming your battery.

3) Check “Battery Health” in the link: 

iPhone Battery and Performance

Good luck.
