I downloaded this on my iPad and as much as I like the new features, it looks like the battery is drained faster than with previous iOS. Anyone experiencing this? Yes, I do close/stop apps when I am not using them, but with the same use as with iOS 5, battery drains down faster!

iPad 1,2 or 3 Gerardo?
I'm not noticing it on my 2 at all.....then again, my wife uses it more than I, so I could be wrong...

Monte Cristo · 6 October 2012, 08:50 AM

Haven't noticed quicker battery drain, although have noticed some embedded YouTube videos on posts I can't open.

Also because I don't like the new maps, I haven't updated my iPhone to OS6.

GerardoG · 6 October 2012, 09:02 AM

iPad2

No change in battery life with OS6 on my 2 iPads.

GerardoG · 6 October 2012, 10:04 AM

I will look into my apps, maybe something is draining the battery. Thank you for your comments!

I had this problem before the update. I finally ended up having to reset as new (per the Genius Bar rec). Solved my problem.

Have not noticed it on my iPad 2 Gerardo.

CashGap · 6 October 2012, 10:52 AM

No change here.

Reset network settings first, might work without a total reset.

Also, no need to close/stop apps on iOS.

Haven't noticed any difference in battery life on my iPad 2.

77T · 6 October 2012, 12:00 PM

on my iPad2 no difference. But go check Location Services and make sure they are set the way you had them before the upgrade..

GerardoG · 6 October 2012, 01:53 PM

Yes,Ipad 2 here....battery drains a lot faster..what the hell....

cedargrove · 6 October 2012, 11:19 PM

I only recently uploaded to iOS 5 and noticed an improvement on battery life. I have now gone to iOS 6 and battery life is still good.

However somewhere along the way I lost my YouTube icon.

Ed Rooney · 7 October 2012, 12:21 AM

On my phone, I noticed battery life degrades, but got better as the various apps were updated for 6.

Tudor Guy · 7 October 2012, 03:48 AM

Off topic, but I recently downloaded the new OS for iphone 4 and now it crashes and is hung up all of the time. It's a mess.

Passionata · 19 January 2013, 02:37 AM

Bit offtopic but so funny i want to share

Had pixel problems -too green display-on my ipad 2 ,check for fix on the web and ppl adviced to hammer the back slightly .i did.
First became even worse than black out then a slight rubber hammering brought it back.beleive it or not the display is perfect now!
The secret is the lcd cable/connectors fitted bit loose by apple ,if it gets disconnected some slapping can fix if you are lucky .

There are times when that works though as an IT guy, we generally frown on percussive maintenance

We have two iPad 2's in the house and have not noticed any difference in battery life after we upgraded to IO6 back in September...

Take it easy.....Leo

meloncap78 · 20 January 2013, 01:31 AM

iPad 3 here. No real notice in battery life changes. I played The Room for 5 hours straight and had no issues

joe100 · 20 January 2013, 01:47 AM

Ios6 here on an iPad 2. No battery drain issues. Don't ask me about my iPhone 4, that's a different story
