1. I looked at the settings/privacy/analytics/analytics Data - there were a lot of program crashes and dumps on my phone. I ran a backup to Itunes and that removed them and seemed to help.
2. settings/location services/system services/ there are a lot of product improvements that are running on the phones. I turned off iphone analytics, popular near me, routing & traffic , significant Locations (this may impact some of your apps so test them after your turn these settings off) I didn't see any impact on the apps I use.
3. I went through my location sharing at settings/privacy/location services - and changed all the "background" refresh apps to "while using" or "never" to save on my cpu usage for apps that don't really need to update in the background when I'm not using them.
