Have you tried rebooting the phone to see if that makes a difference. Also sounds like you have a run-away app.
You could also try to "reset all network settings".

Reboot you phone and see if that helps.
Got a tip for us?

This phone was updated from 13.2.3 to 13.3 beta 3 and then to the final version of 13.3 so it was rebooted at least 2 times. I also reboot the phone in the morning, one day after the update (not sure if it helps anything but still) so that's more to count.
Try reset all setting and see if this issue still happened. If not, then do reset all setting and clear content, and see if it still happened and all functions well. If the issue solved, than you might consider installing the app one by one and get the data sync from iCloud. Otherwise, you might bring the phone to apple for checking.
Also, you might want to check whether any issue on iCloud sync; as it will drain the battery.
It seems, the update/upgrade process was messed up the system config and parameters, while the iOS itself has been stable. That's why, different people experienced differently (which depending their phone settings).
Regular shut down/restart does nothing.
Hard/forced reboot seems to have been disabled with 13.3.
Following the steps of forced reboot for the iPhone 8 no longer works.
Pressing the volume up, release, volume down, release, hold power, no longer does a forced reboot. All it does now is bring up the "Slide to power down" option.
I’m running into a new issue with CarPlay where spoken directions are not being given in a timely manner periodically.
Under iOS 13.2.3, the radio volume lowers, Siri speaks the directions and the radio volume returns to normal. All that happens right after the other. Under iOS 13.3, frequently the volume lowers, but Siri doesn’t say anything for a good 10 seconds. After It’s finished, the volume doesn’t return to normal for another good 10 seconds. Sometimes it takes so long, I’ve missed the turn. It doesn’t happen every time, but often enough that it’s noticeable while driving.

Yeah it is. the feedback app disappeared too. And im pretty sure i didnt delete the profile from general page. But so far so good, no issues. using 11 pro now
My Air2 is great on 13.3 with none of the issues you described. Even my mail is working normally with acceptable battery performance too. Only issue I’ve been having is with the predictive text keyboard not inserting the entire word chosen or just not inserting the word at all. I did do a DFU restore and setup as new without using my backup on 13.2.2 to try and straighten out the keyboard and it didn’t fix it but battery performance improved
Even after restoring and restoring a backup, I’m still having issues.
After leaving my Air 2 alone for 12 hours I went to use it to launch a game and the game froze loading then crashed. Launched it again and it loaded, but was so sluggish at times it was unusable. This isn’t a 3D game or anything, it’s one that worked fine under iOS 12 and had minor if any performance issues under iOS 13.2.3. It alternated between being okay and unusable.
Restarting my iPad seemed to resolve that issue, but that’s only temporary. It’s like the iPad is doing something periodically in the background, which shouldn’t happen as I have nearly everything disabled in background refresh.
I hear you and I’m sure it’s frustrating. When I restored mine I setup as new without using my backup because sometimes software issues can be transferred over during the restore. You might want to try it to see if it cures your issues. If it doesn’t you can always restore again using your backup and you’ll be back to where you started. How old is the Air2 and what’s the battery capacity?
I bought it new when the Air 2 came out so it’s at least 4 or 5 years old. I can’t tell the battery health. The battery isn’t great, but it lasts at least 5 hours of screen on time.
It worked great until I installed iPadOS 13.1. After that it got a bit sluggish at times, but was usable. I thought iPadOS 13.3 would help with performance, but it made it worse.
I don’t really want to set it up as new. Especially since it seemed fine after doing a restore and restore from backup, but the more I use it, the worse it gets. Also someone earlier in this thread reported the same issue so it appears to be software related with iOS 13.3.
I understand, setting up as new is a pain. If you have a Mac you can download coconutBattery. It will give you all necessary info about the battery in an iPhone, iPad or Mac
Don't give up. Ignore the "Slide to power down" message and keep your finger on the power button. It'll force-reboot.
I've been using an iPhone since 2007 and IMHO this has been the worst OS that Apple has ever released. Seems like a pattern is emerging here. iOS 11 sucked so Apple said iOS 12 was about refining iOS 11 and not new features. Curious if that same thing will happen with iOS 14. "We realize 13 wasn't great, so instead of new features we are refining the software for iOS 14."
How about you just get it right the first time Apple and stop breaking things that weren't broken. With this many updates and basic problems that people are still having, its safe to say that Apple doesn't know what they are doing with this OS and are going to need another year to get it right.

Agree, something's not right. My wife's 8 does power off and reset exactly as it always has.
The thing is that i don't want to reset the phone, i don't want to erase everything, install apps one by one because i don't have time for that.
There is a reason why people pay premium price for these phones. We expect that a phone that we paid ~$1500USD (i live in Europe and that's how much i paid for iPhone X 256GB, the 11 pro is more expensive even though the price is still the same in the USA) would work without basic problems like not being able to send a SMS or iMessage, not having cellular data or people not being able to call you.
Also, Apple is not going to help with that in my country. I've been having problems with my old iPhone 6S, my Macbook Pro and they did nothing. I have problems with touch on my iPhone X and even though they announced service program, they want me to pay for a new screen, just because so (i've never dropped my phone, i installed protective glass the same day i got this phone and it's always been in a case)🤷🏼♂️
Weird thing is that i've been using iOS 13 since 13.0 developer beta 7 and the only *major* problem i had was the Photos app crashing. Or no, i remember having problems with Apple Pay but it's fixed now. So yeah, i'm hoping 13.4 or any other iOS version will finally fix all the annoying bugs we have.
I fully agree on the full phone reset. One of the main reasons I put out the extra money for apple products is because its so easy to restore and ready to go it if something goes wrong. Now every support ticket you file with apple requires you to start from new. You might as well take a half day off from work if you have as much setup as i have. Apple can $afford$ to test and make proper OS releases. Tech companies always try to see how far they can go with beta “final” OS releases and rely on software patches. When can we go back new products that work out great of the box?
App reloads just started again. RAM management remains a huge problem on iOS 13
Lets wait for the .1 update to break more things on iOS 13
What i simply cannot understand is ... why does Apple not fix existing bugs but continue to add new features in iOS 13
With the introduction of every version of iOS , it takes them 12 months to iron out all the bugs only to introduce new bugs in the next version of iOS
iOS is a renamed version of Windows.

I just tried it on my XS Max...it does seem you do have to hold down the power button a little longer, but it still did a hard reset.
What good old times? I remember updates that caused some apps to crash upon launch so I had to delete and reinstall apps causing data loss. Even iTunes backup did no good since restoring the data would just make it crash again.
Then there are updates that were simply written with newer hardware in mind and were super slow and/or crash prone on 2-year old hardware with slower chipset and 1/4–1/2 the RAM.
