My 13 pro max is giving me lousy battery life. See my data below and note this is after turning off both “find my” and all location services. I see people with 7 hours if onscreen and 70% left after a day and I have close 50% after less than 90 minutes on screen activities.
I plan to call Apple tomorrow and see what they say but this doesn’t feel right.
Any thoughts?
I hate to erase it and start over given I have tons of apps where I need to re enter credentials and other info after restoring from backup. Unless I know it will fix my issue…
 
Maybe 4 weeks at the most. It has been at least a week since I took 15.1 so any housekeeping should be done by now.

Try unpairing and Remove your watch from your phone and see if it related to that. If your battery seems to improve try pairing the Watch to your phone again. Try it over night and see what it is like in the morning.
 
Not sure. Turn off all items using Home? I remember using it a year or so ago for my eufy cams. Drained the crap out of batteries.
Ok don’t have Home on, keeps asking for my iCloud password. Any ideas how to stop the annoying prompts ?
 
My 13 Pro Max has a good battery life and I use it to edit images and play games. A 100% battery that lasts for a day is enough for me.
