Battery got significantly worse with iOS 9.0.1

Just wondered if anyone else had experienced significantly worse battery issues with iOS 9.0.1


When I upgraded to iOS9.1 the battery became excellent on my iPhone 6. It was lasting upwards of 2 days - the best I have ever experienced with Apple.


When I upgraded to iOS9.0.1 this morning the battery is draining faster than a bath without a plug in it.


Does anyone have advice? Thanks in advance.

iPhone 6, iOS 9.0.1

I updated this morning and am experiencing rapid drain of my battery on my iPhone 6. I have had to keep my phone plugged in so I can complete a phone call. The phone is heating up more than acceptable and the battery is draining 5% a minute on average since the update. NEED AN IMMEDIATE FIX ON THIS ONE.....

I mean reset all settings in the General menu (nor a hard reset). Only settings, don't reset contents. There is an option to do that. Balancing battery life is easy: fully charge your iPhone battery, use the iPhone until its 0% and the iPhone switch off by itself. Leave it without battery fro at least one hour, and then charge it without using it (plane mode) until is 100% full (and when it is full leave it charging a little bit more). This should be done one time per month to treat your battery. Google it and you will get more information.

my iphon gets hot everytime after that i m experiencing massive battery drains..



so the 1st step is removing iphone covers..use wthout fancy covers ..bcz ios 9 is added with powerful new fetures thts mks i phone cpu too much loads and mks the device heats .so just use your iphone without any rubber or metal covers..



then another solution is to clean the speaker area also microphone ..remove the dirts inside ..gv space to heat comes out..
