I have been waiting for thread or two to pop on this issue - but maybe I am the only one... I have a 2nd gen 12.9” IPP. It has been great. But ever since iOS11 the battery life has at least halved. Probably closer to down 75%.

I cannot find any particular “offending” app - there is nothing using a disproportionate amount of battery, though Notability, BlackBerry Work, iAnnotate are the apps I use most other than Safari.

I find myself getting less than four hours’ constant use in meeting for the day. Anyone else experiencing this?
 
I haven’t noticed any dramatic changes in battery life on my first Gen 12.9. Are all your apps and iOS up to date? If you check your battery details in settings, what’s being displayed as the big energy consumers?
