Hello,

I am wondering about how beta software affects battery life on Apple devices, especially iOS. For those who are running betas, do you find that your battery life is very similar to running a public build of iOS? I’m curious to hear what the public has to say about this topic.

This varies from build to build. I don’t think cannot say that all betas will have poor battery life. But then Beta’s will have far more bugs than Public release. Now a days there is never a public release that will have no issues.

It can be different from person/device to person/device and from beta to beta as it is for public release to public release. No real general conclusions, especially applicable to individual cases, can really be drawn.
