I installed the GM of iOS 11 on my iPhone 7 last night, and all day today I have noticed i am getting considerably worse battery life?

Is it possible it could still be indexing and will settle down? I’ve even put my watch in airplane mode so I’m not using the Bluetooth connection, and it still seems to drain very quickly.

I’m thinking about backing up and restoring, but I’m worried the backup will carry across the problem?

Short of starting fresh and not installing the backup, is there anything I can do?

I am getting the same feeling even with the gold master. I feel that I text for 20 minutes and almost 10% drops down. I'm also thinking about rolling back because im paranoic about my battery, and dont know if that kind of draining will damage it.
