This has clearly been answered already, but I came to the forum because I was having this issue as well. I am very religious about having all of my apps killed as soon as I finish using them. I've checked all of my location services to make sure they're all off as well. The only form of location that I normally have on at all times is find my iphone. I have changed absolutely nothing about how I would normally use my phone today versus yesterday before the update. My phone is in my pocket for the 8 hours that I'm at work every day except for when I'm on break. I was blown away when pulled my phone out quick to check a text message and saw that my battery was already at 64%! By the time I was half way through my day, it was showing 42%. It's almost textbook that my phone is at about 75% percent half way through. That's a BIG difference. I hope they get this taken care of.

In the past removing and then adding the email accounts fixed the issue, (because usually it was one of theemail clients talking to the server over and over again) not this time 😟

I have deleted all email accounts, turned off location services and killed all apps, and still the battery is draining away at an incredible pace.

How do I go back to IO5?

some one with a meaningful solution?


thanks
