Is it normal I have to charge my iPod 6 like 3-4 times a day?

i Followed the guide already here on the apple site about optimizing your battery life I have my brightness all the way down everything but wifi is off apps dont refresh mail is on manual like when I open the mail app handoff is turned off the motion thingy is off so i just need to know is this normal for iOS and please don't say I need to return it to walmart cuz it's not a hardware issue cuz I have already done that and it's the same issue

iPod touch, iOS 8.4

Okay someone told me to try making a backup to iCloud I did restored to factory settings and setup as new iPod and I think I just might have fixed it after factory resetting I charged it as I used it once it hit 100% all I did was meet me and kik constantly using it not letting the screen go off and I got 2 hrs and 10 min and it's down to 61% that's good right? I didn't game at all though I just wanna know if it's doing what it's suppose to do now cuz idk how long these things are really suppose to last

I Also just read that iOS 8.4 has a battery drain issue and I noticed this when I cut my iPod touches screen brightness all the way up and flashlight on cuz I'm trying to kill The battery so I can calibrate it i sat here and literally watched it drain from 36% to 27% in less then a min so looks like there are a lot of ppl out there with this very same issue I was right it is a software issue and probably wont be fixed until 8.4.1 or iOS 9 so all I gotta do is wait lol
