It is nothing new, a system update that improves some aspects but “breaks” many others. That is what many iPhone users are currently experiencing, who have updated with all the illusion to iOS 14 and now they have found a device that offers much much less autonomy with its battery.
A few weeks ago the new operating system arrived on Apple phones, as well as its smart watch, and it seems that in both cases, also with WatchOS 7, the problems have grown for users. And although there is a solution, and you probably won’t like it.
Excessive battery consumption
This is what many users of Apple products are “denouncing” on the networks, we talk about the iPhone and the Apple Watch , but we basically focus on the former. There have been many users talking about these problems in the last few days, with some pretty graphic examples of what is going on.
On the one hand, with a large drop in the remaining battery level in record time, some of these users speak that the battery has been reduced from 90% to 30% in just one hour . Fortunately Apple has recognized the problem, the downside of this is that the solution they have provided will not be used by almost anyone.
A problem that is aggravated by the Apple Watch
These problems that iOS 14 users talk about already have an answer from Apple, and it shows all the symptoms that the phone can provide us with the watch. Among them we find some that we had already known a few days ago, such as the loss of health data or the GPS on the Apple Watch. But reference is also made in this same document to the problem we are talking about, a higher battery consumption in the iPhone . Therefore the problem is recognized, and a solution is expected in future iOS updates.
But for the moment they propose a solution, which is certainly not comfortable or fast. Because what they propose from Apple is that we unlink the Apple Watch from our iPhone, that we make backup copies in iCloud , and that we totally restore our iPhone , come on, as if it came from the factory, something that is certainly not a solution within reach of any user, in addition to the disorder it produces. Be that as it may, it seems that the update to iOS 14 negatively influences the battery of the iPhone, and can even be worse when we use it with an Apple Watch.
