Battery problems on iOS 11.4: You can do that

With the release of iOS 11.4 there are not only some new functions, but also battery problems. We'll show you how to fix the problem.

Update to iOS 11.4: battery drains quickly

So far, Apple has not released itself on the problems of the new update. However, the consequences are devastating.

• For some users, half of the battery charge was lost overnight. Some can literally watch how the battery loses charge every minute. Sometimes the battery should even discharge on the charging cable.
• All devices appear to be affected by the problem. Both older models such as the iPhone 6, as well as new devices such as the iPhone X are not spared from the error.

iOS 11.4: Solve battery problems

• Open the "Settings" app and select the "Battery" category. Here you can see which apps are consuming a lot of battery after the update.
• The main cause is probably the WLAN. Especially connections with 5 GHz cause problems. Until Apple solves the problem, you can switch to 2.4 GHz in your router.
• If that doesn't help, you can turn off location services and background updates. For some users, this at least improves.
• If the consequences are not acceptable, you can downgrade to iOS 11.3.1. Otherwise, wait up to 7 days for Apple to solve the problem with another update.
