Hi, Sieghard.
Yes, actually, I've reset network settings at least twice since the 12.x
upgrade.
generally, I'd tell people to go ahead and upgrade their phones, since
the issue with battery drainage is a rare one. At this point I'm a bit
concerned, not actively worried. I'm not a huge traveler beyond my home
area, and I have a small external battery pack I carry with me, so the
phone can stay charged if I need it to. I'm not getting a battery case
because I'm upgrading to a newer and most likely larger sized device
next year. So for now, until I can get a definitive answer, I can keep
my phone charged and still enjoy iOS 12 without too many worries.
And no, the battery issue is the only one I've noticed. Siri works fine
for me as do the other gestures some folks have difficulty with.

Hi Davy,
You really should read people's messages more carefully, Lisa has in fact
updated and then posted her message that she felt the phone used too much
battery, she wrote this:
Hi, all. I'm using an eighteen month old iPhone SE. I've had iOS 12 for over
a month and I'm still plagued by battery issues.
Rob I think was the one who then posted that he was still on 10.3.3 and glad he
hadn't updated yet. Is such a message useful, maybe not, but your reply is
pretty judgemental and it's not useful, either. It is everybody's choice
whether they want to update or not, but telling somebody to just update and
stop argueing about battery when in fact she has updated and is simply stating
a fact is rude.
I do agree that iOS 12 is much better than iOS 10 ever was and I also replied
to Rob telling him that and listing a few features which I think make iOS 12
pretty compelling.
As for lisa's battery drain issue it is of course something which she needs to
address if she had better battery life before. I doubt she expects her phone to
stay at 100% as somebody else suggested, but if a phone is locked and on Do Not
Disturb and nothing else is going on I agree that battery drain at best should
be minimal. She says her phone drained 8% in 6 or 7 hours with no useage
whatsoever, I actually don't think that is outrageous although I also think
it's maybe more than it should be since I would say in the perfect world this
should be maybe 3% or 4%.
Lisa, did you ever try the Reset Network Settings? I also was surprised by
something else and that is that at one point a few weeks ago I plugged in my
phone at night and then turned it off for some reason. I forgot to turn it on
until the next morning and when I then turned it on and unplugged it I found my
battery seemed to last longer than before.
Regards,
Sieghard

Hi Lisa
The statement you tell the list not yet having done the update to
ios12.0.1 is really useless even for yourselves.
maybe your issues are the fact that you are still using ios10.3.3
while most apps have been updated to the needs for ios12.0.1. I don't
know whetehr you are a braille user or not but the most sluggiest and
worst braille version of ios at all is ios10.3. The most smooth and
snappiest version of all also in braille mode is ios12. So please
update your devices Lisa and stop arguing about your battery drainings
which very lokely are caused by youw own anxiety to update.
Regards
Davy

Are you expecting it to stay at 100% all day? Even though you aren’t using
it it is still running on battery
character is found in how you treat people who cannot do anything for
you! ***

Subject: Battery still an issue with iPhone SE and iOS 12
Hi, all. I'm using an eighteen month old iPhone SE. I've had iOS 12
for over a month and I'm still plagued by battery issues.
I can unplug my phone once it's charged to 100% and leave it alone for
six or seven hours and my battery will be at around 92% with no apps
running, the phone being locked and set to Do Not Disturb.
I always have four Verizon bars and three wifi bars, so the phone isn't
even having difficulty finding a signal on either network. This battery
drain happens while the phone is unplugged and sitting on my nightstand
in the same room as the wifi router and a window, so there again, it's
not having issues staying connected.
Here's what I've tried so far to resolve the issue: Screen time is off,
Location services are off, Auto brightness is off, raise to wake is off,
background app refresh is off, Email and other push notifications have
been disabled, network settings have been reset at least twice. I've
also rebooted the phone with the power/home button combo. Last week I
tried charging it to 100, shutting the phone down completely, and
keeping it plugged into the charger for about eight hours.
I didn't have these issues before upgrading from iOS 10 to 12. Before
the upgrade I noticed the biggest battery drain using YouTube or other
apps where the phone had to be unlocked while in use, but that was
expected.
My only thought now is to do the reset where I need to restore the phone
as a new device.
Is there anything else I can do to resolve the issue? Also, if I do the
restore, can I do this using iTunes, my PC and no working eyeballs?
Other than the battery issues, I'm not having any difficulty with my
phone. And, as I said, I wasn't having these issues before the upgrade.
TIA for thoughts.
Lisa
