Hey there CBrian5,

It sounds like you've updated to iOS 11 and now your battery is draining faster than it did post update . We'd suggest you use the troubleshooting and information in the following article to help you get the most out of your device:

Maximizing Battery Life and Lifespan

Auto-brightness has moved in iOS 11. You can learn more about that below:

Adjust the brightness on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

In iOS 11, you can turn auto-brightness on or off in Settings > General > Accessibility > Display Accommodations. In iOS 10 and earlier, go to Settings > Display & Brightness.

Have a great day!
