Re: Battery dying while being used

Joan, if you haven't already, perform a forced re-boot.? To accomplish this on the iP8, quickly press and release the up volume button, then the down volume button, and follow that by pressing and holding in the "power" button until you see the "Apple" logo.? It will take a few seconds, as many as 30 or so, for the re-boot to complete.? I do this when ever something wierd happens, and it's not a bad idea to perform this re-boot after an update, also.

I can watch the battery drain while I'm talking. I have to keep it on the charger constantly so I can use it for a few minutes off the charger.
When I looked at the battery health it says 58%.
What can I do on my end to help stop this fast drain besides getting a new battery, which I will at some point. I must be missing something that works in the background to drain the battery so fast.
Thanks!
