Anyone else having battery issues since updating to iOS 7?

I am having same problems on 4s with battery drain all apps are off

After a hard reset (pressing the two buttons until the iPhone reboots) and a full charge, it seems back to normal.

I don't see the high CPU usage when doing nothing, and the sleep/activity ratio seems normal.

After lookin around a little bit more, it seems that my problem was caused by Exchange replication : the setting was correct, and there was almost nothing to sync as I only use it for calendar and contacts, but in 3 days it used 320 MB of 3G bandwidth !

I had switched automatic sync off this morning, then this afternoon switched it back on, but it seems that the problem is fixed.

I tried that to and still no go. If im not using the phone the life is just great but the moment I start using it, it drains very quick, I watch it jump from 12% to 9% literally

I too have the same problem since the update on iPad 2. Battery life has been seriously reduced, plus charging takes much longer! Sure hope they get a fix on this soon.

I have the same issue. It's a power hog.

It is clear there are one or more processes causing the CPU to run non-stop in our iPad despite following all recommendations to shut down Location Services, turn-off Bluetooth, etc. The back of the iPad is hot to the touch when it is turned on. Closing the Apple-issued cover does not shut down the iPad as it did before we installed iOS 7. And, as others have observed, the power drains extraordinarily quickly.

Hi About 5 days ago I upgraded the OS on my iPhone 4 to ios7

What a silly mistake that was! 😠 And I am told I cannot downgrade to ios 6 at all.

I've been using a third party battery pack for the last year that only cost me £30.00 and its been working fine up untill the OS upgrade! then it would not charge up.

I thought Oh well a years not bad for £30.00 as the Apple battery is about £100.00 and my last one lasted 2 years. So I went and bought a new third party Battery, but when I plug it into my charger it doesnt charge it up.

So I returned to the shop and they fitted one that had already been charged. But when I plug the apple charger into the phone I get a message saying that some third party accessories are not supported and it will not charge the battery.

The other point is that you cannot go to your local high Street and just buy an Apple battery for your phone you have to go to an Apple Centre my nearest Centre is 30 miles away. I was caught out like this when on Holiday in Corfu, Greece, nowhere could I get a battery for my iPhone 4, I was told it had to be sent to Athens to have one fitted at an outlandish price. And now with the new IOS 7 I can't even use a third party battery, this really is totally unaceptable.

1) There should have been a warning to problems with upgrading

2) There should be a way for those that have been duped into upgrading to IOS 7 to downgrade to IOS 6.

3) It seems after reading these posts that even if you have an Apple battery there are a lot of problems with battery drain etc.

I must say that after years of being an Apple Loyal Customer I'm considering buying an Adroid Smart Phone.

Has anyone found a work around regarding the third party battery Issues?

The Anker Astro3 supplies very clean and reliable power to the iPhone even when it is running iOS 7.

(I can personally confirm this)

Note, being generic does not help us help you, what power/battery pack do you have now?

Also, what Apple Battery? Apple doesn't make powerpacks for the iPhone...

Also, Google is a powerful resource, always research (and/or call Apple) before making OS upgrades- Try a query like this: "Can I downgrade to iOS 6 if I install iOS 7?"

The first part of chisss solution sorted my ipad 4 problem. Thanks :) I wondered why I couldn't delete running apps after update!

Further thought is why Apple did not find this? I won't replace Ipad if there is any more nonsense and I don't think I'm alone!
