IPad Air Battery Drain After 9.2.1 Update :(
SInce updating to 9.2.-, my trusty iPad Air's battery life seems to be screwed.
I think I was on IOS 8 or something before, when Bookmarks were still on the right, instead of being now on the left, as they used to be with my very first iPad. Whatever, the battery drain is ridiculous now.
I've searched for solutions, and have done the hard restart thing (power button and home button,mApple logo, restart, etc) more times than I can count, and have applied all the battery saving tips I can find ((changing email to manual fetch instead of push, switching off motion, turning off auto updates, app refresh, etc) to no avail 😟
What's bothering me the most is that even when it's plugged in and charging, if I'm using it, the battery is still visibly draining.
Reluctant to to a computer backup and a whole reset from scratch, last resort, obvs.
So does anyone here have the answer? Or are we supposed to wait for Apple to orovide another fix to sort it out?
Any advice or suggestions gratefully received, I don't want to risk rolling back to IOS 9 or 9.1 either - from what I've seen online, there were just as many battery drain issues with those, too.
Come on, Apple! This just isn't good enough! My iPad has lost 3% just writing this! Whilst plugged in!
According to the battery useage thing in settings, 85% of it is down to Safari. My Safari useage hasn't changed at all.
CAn't find a really appropriate place that Apple are giving me an option to post this to, so sticking it under the Safari option as all else has nothing to do with my bsttery issue, there wasn't anything remotely applicable under "software update" - that was about Windows! If anyone can tell me a better place to put this, I'd be grateful. Newbie on this forum :/
