I know this is beta software and things like this will happen but a couple friends have had better experiences with beta 3 and battery life but mine is still pretty poor.

Was just wondering if anybody has found ways to improve battery life?

I have to disagree with the folks above... b3 is running fairly well for me. I do reset Network Settings after each update. Not sure if that’s a valid variable or not.

My 6s on DB3 was at 10 per cent battery after 9 hr, 45 min total and 4 hrs of usage today. Very similar so far to battery life on DB2. Far less than on iOS 10.

I’m on pb1 and until Sunday battery was poor. Purely by accident I let battery run down completely before recharging. Battery life has been back to normal since
