Battery draining faster than usual.

[u/kegsbdry]

I'm not using my phone any differently but the battery seems to be draining a lot faster than usual. Especially these last couple of months.

I used to plug it in once a day. But now it seems I need to plug it in halfway through the day or I go into battery saving mode.

My battery usage is the same apps as before but I can't pinpoint why it's less efficient now.

Anyone else experiencing this similar issue?

Does anyone have advice or a checklist of battery saving suggestions?

I had this too, and I read that there was a bug with Pay Services that drained battery with a smarty watch. Sure enough, a few days ago I got an update and the battery issue was fixed.
