I have an iPhone 5 and I'm getting great battery life in iOS 7.1. I
have background app refresh on, but only for one app: Fantastical 2,
for calendar and reminders. I live and die by my calendar, so don't
see any reason to turn that app refresh off. I have also turned off
those apps that don't need/use location services. In fact, I think I
may be getting better battery use than before the update. Before iOS
7.1, I would use 50 to 70 percent battery during a 12 hour day. After
the update, I use an average of 30 to 50 percent. I use Bluetooth at
times with my braille display, some GPS on the bus when finding out
what interesection I am at, and heavy use during lunch and on the way
home. Probably not as much as others, but that's what I do. From my
perspective, there's no big reason not to update, your milage may vary
though.
Best,
Wayne

True. It's a bug and you need to let Apple know of this so they can fix
it sooner than later.

Agreed, but I don't see why I should be forced to turn background app
refresh off, what's the point in having it if it doesn't work properly?

It's horrible only if background app refresh is turned on as for some
reason location services are used when they shouldn't be. It's this
location services feature that uses the most power. Turning this off
solves the problem. You only need background app refresh if you're
using location-based apps such as Blind Square anyway.

Hey guys,
OK, I need some input here. I'm having a serious debate about
whether or
not to upgrade to 7.1 because of the reports I hear that the battery
life is
horrible.
Any input?
