Apple released the iOS 17.2 update earlier this week, and it includes many exciting new features. However, some users reported that the update may affect their phone’s battery life.
According to user reports, their phones freeze faster after installing iOS 17.2. In some cases, users have to charge their phones several times a day.
Installing a new operating system on an iPhone causes a lot of things to run in the background, like indexing and battery recalibration, explained Adrian Kingsley Hughes, a researcher at ZDNet. This can take hours or even days.
Hughes added that if you are having issues with your phone’s battery life after installing iOS 17.2, you can check “Battery Health” in Settings. If the message is “Good for maximum performance ability,” this may be normal. However, if the message is “Poor to peak performance,” something might be wrong.
If you’re experiencing issues with your phone’s battery life after installing iOS 17.2, you can wait a few days to see if the issue improves on its own. If not, you can try factory resetting your phone. If this doesn’t help, you may need to contact Apple for assistance.
