After using iOS 11 on my 7 Plus for a few days I’ve found that the battery drains more quickly than on iOS 10.3.3. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make battery life better? I hope a fix will be released in a future iOS 11.1 or 11.2 or even 11.3 update.

I haven’t encountered any battery drain issues on my 7 Plus running iOS 11.
It varies on your usage, I would personally recommend turning off Bluetooth and Wifi from the Settings app when not in use.

I suspect it is an issue with your phone, as the reports I've seen claim similar battery life to 10.3.3. My first step would be to shut down and restart your phone. After that, if that doesn't solve your battery issues, maybe try a hard reset or a restore of your phone.

Check what apps are battery hogs. You can turn location and background app refresh off. That will definitely help.

I haven’t noticed much difference in battery life. Then again, I was on the beta for a while so I may have just gotten used to it.

No battery issues but tons of apps loading issues, taking a long time or just not loading saying no internet connection but I know there is and my other none iOS devices work fine

Ok yes I’ve noticed a battery draining issue, it’s more evident now.

My battery not the best still. I really don’t want to do a factory reset. But might have to cave in

I'm having the same issue on my regular 7. Battery life not as good since upgrading to iOS 11.

There was a post just this morning suggesting turning all email from a set time to manual. Seems like a good thing to try.
