Public Beta 4 battery life

[phillies20]

Ok. So I just finally downloaded public beta. I am on 4. And wow. Battery life is horrible. I literally just watch it go down every other minute. I did a hard reset and it jumped up 40%. Then it drops a % every 4 minutes. Why?? Will this get better?

Hmm.. that's weird. My battery life has been stable and pretty good since PB3 on my 6S+

What iPhone are you running this beta on?

 

[phillies20]

6s plus. It was weird. Every app I have on my phone was open in background. So I closed them all. Maybe that will help. I have it on low battery mode just to stop the bleeding. lol

Maybe try a clean install?

Or download an app called Battery Life to see what's going on.

What do you mean by a clean install?

He means restoring and then setting it up as a new device.

It's actually much better now. I did a hard reset and closed out all apps in background. It's been good now. It was so weird after installing every app I had was open in background. But I think I'm good now. Thanks for your help

It was probably one or two apps. Most apps sitting in multitasking are not running in the background.

No issues with beta 4 on mine. Seems like you have an app gone bad causing the issues.

No issues with power drain on my 6 or 6-Plus. Try both seem to have comparable battery life as the 9.3.4.

 

[remipmc]

battery life has been good, roughly 8-10 hours with fairly moderate to heavy use on 6S+

 

[Ledsteplin]

With the exception of a few glitches, my overall battery life has been good. Those glitches tho! SMH!

Yeah, I'm not seeing any battery consumption issues.

PB4

It's been plugged in since the last charge.

Plugged it in for an extra 2%

If you're gonna cheat, at least white out the evidence!

Man. It's happening again. Ever since PB7 I am getting massive battery drains sporadically. Like going from 80 to 45 in 1 hour.

Same here. It does great for a while then all of a sudden it tanks.
