How do I fix iPhone 16 Pro battery drain and overheating issue after 18.3.2 update?

Hello Community,


I have a problem with my iPhone 16 pro after it received update 18.3.2 - battery drain by Home & Lock Screen process increased to 60%. I am using phone in a normal conditions, before update it has worked fine. I can't use it as it always warm or hot.


1) I have reseted all setting - no positive changes. Battery drain still the issue and iPhone temperature warm to hot, almost all the time.

2) Erased all content and settings, logged in with my id and didn't;t install any app except Apple preinstalled - no positive changes.


Thank you!

Experiencing battery drain and overheating on your iPhone 16 Pro after updating to iOS 18.3.2 is a concern shared by several users.


Allow Post-Update Processes to Complete: After an iOS update, your iPhone may perform background tasks like indexing and system optimizations, which can temporarily increase battery usage and heat generation. This process typically completes within a few hours to a couple of days.
