iPhone 17 Pro Max battery drain from Background App Refresh

I am experiencing abnormal battery drain caused by Background App Refresh activity in several applications particularly on the iPhone 17 Pro Max What is the most effective way to mitigate this background power consumption while preserving real time notifications and system performance ?

iPhone Battery Drain:


So, what's the app?


A. Reinstall the App:

If purchased off of the App Store uninstall the app, then reinstall it. Hold down on the app, and then trash it while it is wiggling. Then, restart your iPhone. Then, download it and install it form the App Store.


B. Contact the Developer:

You'll find their Contact Us info in the app's site of the App Store. Inform then what is happening, and provide them with the URL of this thread.


C. Restore form a Backup:

Did you ever back up your iPhone prior to this having installed? If so, then restore it from the backup.
