Battery - IPP 11 2020

Now that I have been on this beta about a week I figure the battery use should be fairly stable.
Good news. Over the last three days I have been averaging 10-11 hours on a full charge. Not the greatest battery life for this device but not bad and better than 14.6.x

Think a lot of these battery drain issues have to do with this site. 🥺

No, I am waiting patiently for Beta 2 because I had never issues with batt life but since this beta my iPhone 12 pro needs to be recharged after 4 hours. And I cannot see what is responsible for this.

Same here. My iPhone 12 Pro battery life has been awful and hoping that Beta 2 (or 3) will improve it. My Watch battery life is terrible as well.

I do most of my MacRumors reading/posting on my ThinkPad. At least for me it is not this site.

Yep, it’s only happening on iOS/iPadOS devices I’m already up 40m battery life on my iPad since I haven’t been using the site and forum. No issues on macOS.
 
Aye, it seems like ages since last update and a few weeks until iOS15 for us. I’m getting nothing coming up.
 
We’ve been dropped like a hot potato.
It’s so obvious the focus has shifted to 15. What was the point in doing 14.7. Total waste of our time. 🤬

now I’m stuck on not even halfway through a beta and can’t even get on 15. 🤬

I know right? I mean everyone knows the purpose of betas are for the enjoyment of MacRumors forum posters. What the hell Apple?
 
Phone is burning hot again. Cheers macrumors.

I don’t know if this is coincidence or not, but for the last few days my battery has been killed by using this forum within tapatalk. My phone gets really hot, the battery dies and it gets so slow that dictation fails to work (within tapatalk). I have to restart my phone to get it working again.

It ain't a coincidence, didn't use these forums or site yesterday on my iPhone and iPad, it was the first time in a long time that I finished the day with 50% battery life on my iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPad battery was also a lot better, definitely a issue with this site/forum draining the heck out of our iOS/iPadOS devices. Must be all these video ads 🤬

Jumped on here last night for a couple of minutes on my iPad, surprise surprise, battery dropped 3% in 2 minutes. 🤦‍♂️

Apparently the owner of the site is looking into it. Won't be using my iPhone and iPad on this site anymore, my battery ends up draining as fast as a samsung phone. 🤦‍♂️

Think we need to ask apple for a free developer account, I'm getting severe beta withdrawals, need my beta hit. 🥺😂
