Battery Problems on iPhone After Updating to iOS 14.6

iOS 14.6 has been among Apple iPhone users for only a few days and, to no one’s surprise, the Web is being flooded with complaints from these Apple brand customers who allege that the new software drains the battery of their phones in a way alarming.

This update was released at the end of May with the big news of support for Apple Card Family, Apple Podcasts and changes related to AirTag, among other things. Of course, it also has the objective of solving problems with performance but, contrary to expectations, it has ended up generating more obnoxious ones. Some users complain on Reddit that their iPhone was 70 percent depleted overnight, while others allege that their phone cell continued to drain even when left charging overnight.

Apple’s eternal problem with batteries

Users are also turning to Apple’s support forum to complain about this iOS 14.6 battery issue , where they report “excessive” power consumption after upgrading to the new version of the operating system. The problem reproduces us only and exclusively at night as other users claim that their 2018 iPhone XS battery drains approximately 30 percent in the morning even after fully charging it before sleeping.

What is striking about the case is that it is not a battery problem that affects only one iPhone model but that the software is causing headaches for all users alike. One iPhone 12 user complained that his phone’s battery rose to just 30 percent even after keeping it charging overnight and that it “keeps draining.”

Whose fault is it?

Apple has yet to recognize the problem and offer a solution, but there are already several users who through different forums seem to have found the origin of this annoying battery failure in iPhones with iOS 14.6 .

It seems that the problem may be related to the addition of AirTags to Find My Network. “Many people have said that once they added an AirTag, the battery life suffered. But he also realized that AirTag location awareness was also added to all 14.6 ”iOS devices , different users claim.

Be that as it may, it only remains to wait for the arrival of iOS 14.7 , Apple’s response and encourage you to, if you receive the update notice, ignore it.
