iOS 10.1 Battery drain

I have been viewing this discussion for a while, I have a 5 and the drain began at IOS 10.

My battery has been replaced 2 months ago as I thought it was past its usable limit and I paid for it, so I will be looking for some form of compensation from Apple in due course.

I've noticed that the location gets activated very often, even when using apps that shouldn't need it! (I let just a few apps to use location service).
Another thing I've noticed is that after having a 100% charge, in the battery usage menu, it's doesn't show data about usage and standby ... (it actually did it just once in the last weeks!)
Am I the only one to notice this strange behaviour?I

p.s. Battery drain still happens, anyway I have to say that I never experienced the sudden shutdown of the iphone at high percentage of battery.

Hi everyone,

I had battery drain problem since 10.1.1

I let check the battery status from apple using apple support via twitter, they tell me the battery was healthy and try reset etc etc.

I tried but nothing happen...

Now after 3 days I've downloaded a free app that check healthy battery status and....the result is unbelievable ! Is it possible my battery goes down of 55% in 3 days????

Could you check yours too?

So...bad software is wearing our iPhone's battery? This is getting even worst then I thought.

And still no Apple statement about this. So disappointing...

I don't know how to say!! I'm asking again via twitter...they know 3 days ago my battery was ok...

I'll keep this thread updated about it

Well, this is getting more and more ridiculous. Apple support, via Twitter claims my battery passed the test, and suggested to go to page of "maximizing battery lifespan..."

I feel insulted...

Has anyone else been going over their data plans since installing iOS 10.0 or greater? I don't have wifi just cellular and I am not doing anything different and have been going over my data amount which is costing me an extra $15 month. My phone gets very hot while charging sometimes. I totally shut my phone completely off at 100% one night and when I turned it back on the next morning, it was at 30%???? How is that even possible?? I've read other people's doing the same thing.

First time this happened I managed to catch it at 1%. Did several resets after which the battery level returned to 60%.

This has happened several more times where it has just powered off while I'm us it and an immediate attempt to restart shows the plug in to charge display. Wait around 10 minutes and the phone will restart showing the actual battery level which is never below 20%.

This issue has been in the media and on these forums for at least two updates and still no fix. I'm not going to buy an iPhone 7 hoping that the newer phone will cure this(and because there's no headphone port ;p)

Both my father in the UK and a friend in Japan are reporting the same issue. At least Samsung handled the note 7 recall properly I'm the end, Apple doesn't seem to care at all about its customers. Are all their top decision makers in holiday right now?

I updated to iOS10.2 on Wednesday and the update did not solve any of the problems,s that started with iOS 10.1.1 update. I had my battery replaced under the iPhone 6c battery recall on Saturday afternoon ( 9/17/16 @2:30 PM EST). I picked up the phone with new battery @ 4:00 pm and charged it 100%. I unplugged it @ 6:00 pm @ 100% and by 8:30 pm (2.5 hours constant use) phone was still @ 75%. I did not plug it in when I went to bed and phone was at 65%. Woke up this morning with phone @ 62% and have been using constant since 8:30 am this morning and phone is @ 43%. While the Battery may have been part of the issue I still believe iOS 10.1.1 update was the real culprit. I am wondering though that since the battery need to be disconnected from the logic board during replacement if the disconnection and complete removal of power from the logic board wasn't part of the solution.

So my recommendation now is that IF you have a iPhone 6s that falls under the recall to get the battery replaced free of charge. If your phone is older and/or is not covered by the recall then maybe battery replacement at a cost of $80 would be a viable alternative to buying a new iPhone for $600-$900.

My iPhone 6S Plus is 13 months old... the solution shouldn't rely on me paying for a battery replacement or a new phone. I payed a pretty high price for this equipment. It MUST be solved by Apple via hardware replacement or software correction. Not by any of us paying for whatever solution it might work.

Come on Apple fix this!

I have a 128GB iPhone 6 and I first noticed the 30% bug with iOS 10.1. Phone behaves normally until I get to ~25-30% of battery charge and then suddenly drops to 1% and shuts down. If I quickly attach it to a charger, it jumps back to 30+% and appears to run normally again. Last week I updated to 10.2 and today it happened with >50% of the charge on the battery. Within seconds it jumped to 1%. I immediately plugged in the phone and was back to a 68% charge within a minute.

Would like to know if there is a fix.

Best,

No. Waiting for a fix from apple.
