Recently updated to 17.4 iPad os and my battery is nearly gone after 3 hours of usage. I regularly use my iPad Pro for notes in class and it would still have about 50% after 4hrs of use. Now it’s down to 8%. Is there a possible fix coming?
Got a tip for us?

Yep did everything on the list. It’s starting to be better with low power mode. I’m at 40% before leaving which wasn’t happening before even with that activated.Have you already done the basic things to optimize your battery life?

Yes on current OS always. It’s starting to be better with low power mode. I’m at 40% before leaving which wasn’t happening before even with that activated.
How about apps on the Background App Refresh section in settings? I, myself, noticed pretty much all of my apps having that feature on by default even though most didn’t need to. New apps you download from the last time you checked might have BAR on as well
