IOS 9.0.2 - Poor battery life on iPhone 6

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone else has been experiencing problems with IOS 9.0.2 and poor battery life? I have an iPhone 6 and since updating my battery life has decreased dramatically. Sometimes losing 25% in an hour even when the phone is in standby and not being used. I like to think i am quite clued up with Apple technologies and I have always been a fan of preserving battery life. Although appreciated, please don't comment with the usual extending battery life tips as I already use them all.

I hope I am not the only one suffering with this problem, has anyone discovered a cause or a fix?

Thanks!

iPhone 6, iOS 9.0.2

iPhone 6 Battery Issues After Software Upgrade

Apple, after updating the software on my iPhone 6 my Battery began having issues with slow charging, iPhone dropping dead with 80% Battery.

This issue has made me aware of at least two serious personal safety issues:

When calling to check on my granddaughter, with 80% Battery, iPhone dropped dead. This Battery issue seriously jepordizes the safety of my children and grandchildren, when making calls regarding their whereabouts, or safety.
As a Federal Licensed Communications Tech, if my iPhone drops dead with 80% charge, or takes several hours to charge, responding to “Public Safety” is also a very serious issue.
This problem for Business Calls is also unacceptable.

We hope this was not a planned software change to escape any Battery Recalls, because it dangerously jepordizes Public Safety and that of our loved ones. I’m not sure the use of your iPhone 6 can be trusted for the above reasons.

Note: My wife, who never upgrades her iPhone 6 software, has no Battery issues.

I have the same problem. I have restored the phone x 2 (iPhone 6) and it has not helped with preservation of my battery....I know several other people with similar problems.

My battery has been dying more often and faster since my update. In addition, my phone keeps shutting down apps on its own. So frustrating!

I have the same problem. Battery won't last 4 hours. I even tried to see if battery was eligible for replacement. Not on the list of SN. SMH

I have the same problem on Iphone 6. In recent weeks the battery life has shortened very significantly. So far they had me restore phone but no help. Stay tuned!
