iOS 17 | Battery Life & Health

[Pearsey]

It's all about the Battery and it's Health on here during the iOS 17 cycle.

I'll drop a post in, like below, to sign post a new beta, so you can mark the development.

This will help keep the other iOS 17 forums more focused and on subject. Thanks.

Battery looked good over night for its first sleep.

Just lost 15% in an hour, just listening to a podcast (using Overcast) with AirPods (on beta as well). But that's all to be expected the first day of a beta and doesn't necessarily mean it will be bad in the entire beta.

Try a hard restart.

I always do a couple after an install a few hours later. Just helps settle anything.

Yeah just did when I put it on the charger. But the first day can always be a bit rough battery wise. I knew what I was getting into

I always do a reset network settings after an update. Can help sometimes, rather bizarrely.

Day 1- Starting the day fresh. 100% 🔋. Lots of indexing took place last night. Let’s get it.

My battery life seems to be way worse than iOS 16.6 b1, not that I am complaining this 1st beta of iOS 17 has been super smooth considering.
I'd say my phone lasts about 60-65% of iOS 16.6 b1, I have all log collections turned to max to help Apple root out bugs. I presume people who turn them off have better battery life and less overheating.

Haven’t noticed any major drops to battery life. Although my 14 Pro Max did go from 98% battery health to 97%.

Battery life has actually seemed pretty good for me today. Higher than it normally is by 1030.

First few hours it is eating battery but that's expected.

See how it handles tonight and after 24 hours.

iOS 17 > iOS 16.6 betas… no difference between the two for me on a 14 Pro

I agree with u 👍

Battery life is pretty bad. Looks like mail background activity is the problem. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

 

[Sunsster1988]

I'm getting 8 hours, 24mins screen off time.

Not seeing any real change.
My battery health did drop another percentage point on update. (96 > 95)

Never had a problem with the mail app using battery but this is insane. I’ve had to turn notifications off for the mail app

Yup it’s been using mail in the background 100% of the time since install. I’ve had to turn off notifications & did a restart to stop it. (See my photo above comment)
