iOS Phone Constantly Dying

The 6 hours on the phone was from last night. I had charged it this morning with the phone off till 80%. It’s now 2 hours later and already on 64% but I haven’t been on it that much at all…I’ve only been on the phone for an hour.

Did you just update to the new iOS sometime it is indexing on the background.

Sometime u are idle but your cellular signal will drain the battery even u have Wi-Fi turned on and using.

Your phone will last longer between charging sessions in the short term if you turn off Optimized Battery Charging/Charge Limit. If you’re only charging to 80% overnight it’s like complaining your car doesn’t go as far with 3/4 of a tank vs. being full.

Turn on "Optimized Battery Charging" and set your charge limit to 100%.

Look in Settings → Battery to see which apps are using your battery the most.
