Apple Seeds Second Betas of iOS 13.2 and iPadOS 13.2 to Developers [Update: Public Beta Available]

1. It's a beta. Do not install a beta unless you're willing to suffer.

2. Just because you are experiencing an issue, doesn't mean Apple knows about. It doesn't even mean that it's an issue with the iOS. Try submitting a bug report to Apple instead of posting rants on public forums.

Then what's the relevance of your post to this article about a beta?

I'm guessing he's hoping to have the issue he's experiencing fixed in 13.2 and maybe see confirmation that it has.
 
On iPhone X took forever.

The actual install wasn't that long, preparing takes perhaps 40% of the total install, without downloading.
Downloading completely depends on how fast your internet connection is, mine is close to a Gb so even a full install downloads in a minute.
 
Just curious, what's your battery health say under battery health? My X is down to 91% and I still get decent life out of it. Not a particularly heavy phone user but lots of texts and web. And as another person said, I deleted the Facebook app off the phone and use Mobile Firefox to access FB. Helped a lot.

I waited until iOS 13.1 to install. Battery health was at 94%. Since then it's dropped to 92%, with a full charge lasting only about 3 hours under what I consider to be moderate use: 15 minutes phone talk time, 15-30 minutes on socials without video usage, and 10-20 SMS messages in that timeframe. All with 3 out of 4 bars LTE reception on AT&T.

In the beta, which is presumably going to be a live release in the future, EASE THE BATTERY CONSUMPTION.

What code of hipster conduct did I breach by mentioning battery life, or any other future feature improvement, in a beta? Isn't the purpose of betas to test features? Isn't feedback on betas, whether publicly here, or on Apple (and yes, condescending lecturers and self-professed standard bearers of speech, I HAVE raised this with them) what actually gets things addressed?

What battery drainage issues...?!

On my iPhone 7, battery on 13.1.2 lasts only about 3 hours under limited use: 15 minutes phone talk time, 15-30 minutes on socials without video usage, and 10-20 SMS messages in that timeframe. All with 3 out of 4 bars LTE reception on AT&T.

That sounds terrible and definitely "out of order". I'm seriously doubting that it's a software issue, it sounds more like a defective battery.

I made an Apple Store appointment, but I am dubious because this did not arise until I went from 12.4.1 to 13.1 .

I have the same, downloading takes about a minute and then that preparation probably 15 minutes of not more.

You coming here saying in all caps fix battery drainage issues now is not constructive to help fix any issue and is uncalled for. There are no bugs that are causing battery drain in iOS 13. Battery life has been excellent for the majority of users. Just because you have an issue doesn’t make it a bug. It could be apps you have installed running background task, using location, or hardware issues related to you and you only.

The one thing that’s been consistently great for me is my battery (iPhone 11 Pro Max). Yeah, screaming at us here in a forum is like calling your ISP support and yelling at them lol. Why yell at strangers while also asking for help??

Glad y'all telepathically inspected and diagnosed my phone from afar and have reviewed every line of iOS to know for sure that battery usage is now perfect... and that only I am the problem. Alrighty then. Geez, thanks.

Have you checked Settings / Battery, and then selected Show Activity so it can show you what’s happening in the background?

And no one’s telepathically inspected your phone LOL Everyone’s expeience with Battery Life is going to be different, doesn’t matter your phone model or iOS/iPadOS version. Different combinations of installed apps will have a different impact on battery life. One person with an iPhone 8+ and another person with an iPhone 8+ will most likely have different battery drain. Maybe take it to an Apple Store and have them run diagnostics on it if it’s that bad? You know, instead of just screaming into a forum...

You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar...

He hasn’t looked into anything. Apparently he knows 100% there’s a bug and came straight here to yell and complain.

First off, I'm an innocent bystander to this thread and have nothing against you. Complain in these forums all you want for all I care; it doesn't bother me. That said, and only since you asked...

You have actually breached several "codes of hipster conduct", but not by merely mentioning battery life in a beta release. In fact, people mention the battery life issue with literally every single beta release, so much so that it has become a running joke around here, and one which you have fallen subject to by your own manner and accord.

You are blaming others for doing what you yourself are doing--claiming to have accurately diagnosed your battery life issue as something that can necessarily be fixed by a new iOS release. Along the way, you have rapidly garnered an appearance of ignorance concerning a number of subjects, including (but not limited to) software, electronics/hardware, battery technology, general internet communication etiquette, and forum-specific contextual awareness.

There are thousands upon thousands of possible factors at play when it comes to battery life. It may very well be fixed by a new iOS release. It may very well be a hardware issue specific to your phone (yes, even if the battery reports decent "health", and even if the issue did not arise until you updated to 13). In any case, it might behoove you to exhibit a little more epistemological humility in these forums, so people might be more helpful in assisting you with your troubled device.

While I agree this isn’t really the correct thread, I disagree in your statement that there are no battery related bugs in iOS 13. Evidence seems to suggest otherwise. We have an iPhone 6s that is now only lasting 4 hours. It had the battery replaced last year on the Apple replacement scheme. We know of two others (iPhone 7’s) only doing < 5 hours. In our case battery is 95% quality, we’ve reset everything and now done a new setup without any apps and battery still plummets.

In all cases we’ve logged the issues with Apple and await a fix.
