All Devices iOS 13 Battery Life

[panjandrum]

Wow, I know that people report that after a few days things might return to normal, but as of now iOS 13 has absolutely decimated my battery life on my relatively new SE. My battery health is still at 97% and supporting peak performance, but I've lost well over 4 hours total battery life. Used to to pull it off the charger in the morning and at bed time still had easily 20%+ (I almost never saw the prompt to enter Low Power Mode). Now I'm running completely out of juice at around 6pm and seeing a bunch of other wonky behavior such as shutting down and demanding that I plug it in - after which it was immediately at 25% power and charged to 50% in about 10 minutes. Not cool Apple.

This morning I was using my Ipad 10.5 pro and it went from 90% to 25% in about two hours. Using IOS 13.1.2.

My battery life on my iPhone X was pretty good under 12.0, but then I updated to 12.1.4, and it started to drain considerably faster, and no change in usage. Finally decided to update to 13.1.2, and my battery life went back to relatively the same as it was on 12.0. However, I am experiencing a couple of annoying issues now.

Twice this week I have gone in to work with a battery very close to 100% and by noon its in power saving mode. We have very poor cell service where I work so I think its draining the battery trying to connect or negotiate between 3G and LTE as I am walking around the place. I know my battery is getting older as a full charge is 90% according to Battery in settings.

90% is still pretty good. Make sure to turn off Background refresh. This is a big culprit for battery usage. As for the cell usage, the only other thing I can think of, is to turn off all apps that you don't require to have cellular usage (under Settings>Cellular). It will help in conserving battery life.

Although my battery life is back to normal, I still have my X on a charging pad when I'm not using it. So by the time I leave work, it's still at 98-100% charged.
