IOS 7 draining my battery

I upgraded last night, and it's draining the crap out of my battery!! I disabled all the features they said to disable in order to extend battery life, but to no avail. I can literally see the battery life go down in front of my eyes. Mind you, I was really satisfied with the iPhone 5 (Verizon) battery life when I was still operating on the iOS 6, but this new update is killing me. Anyone know if it my battery life will return to normal, once everything settles down, or am I stuck charging my phone every hour?

During the first 24 hours it was the same for me. Then I noted that Bluetooth was activated... Since I turned it off my battery has the same operational time as previously. But of course I charge my phone when it's very low each 36 hours.

IOS 6 drains my battery like IOS 5

I have an iPhone 4S and just like when IOS 5 came out, any notifications that appear on my phone, if I don't unlock my phone (swipe the bottom), to clear out the notifications, they end up draining my battery! Same problem when IOS 5 came out and APPLE had to release an enhancement updgarde to fix this!
I only have Email and Facebook notifications turned on and I make sure to clear out any opened apps. I didn't have have this problem with IOS 5.1.1. As soon as IOS 6 came out, these problems occured, just like when IOS 5 first came out.
I used my phone 4x yesterday (2 IM's and 2 short calls) and I started with 100% battery and by 5pm, it was down to 18%.
2 nights ago, I went to bed with a 38% battery and when I woke up, my battery was at 0% as my phone shut itself down.
I have also tried doing a hard reset.
Anyone else having this issue? Any word on when an enhancement upgrade will be available to fix this issue?

Brad,
I truly believe the issue is the IOS 6 software upgrade.
I, recently, used to work for Apple (1.5 yrs) and have tried everything that there is to do with remedying this issue.
As mentioned in my initial post, my phone did not have these issues until after installing IOS 6, which coincidentally, is having the same issue as we all had when IOS 5 was released.

IOS 7 draining iPhone battery

Is anyone else having difficulty since the new update. It is really draining my battery very quickly. The new colors are making it harder to see the icons.

Can't do anything about the icons, I don't think they look all that bad. But the battery issue will go away in time. I have had so many battery issues on my ipad mini with a new update. http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/19/ios-7-battery-life-fix/
Use that for a fix, after that just use your idevices. It will get better. 6.1.2 after I updated to that my battery was so bad. I'm still on 6.1.2 because of every update Apple releases it for some weird reason messes with our battery's. now I get 14 hours from my ipad min, it was 8-9. But after using it and charing it, it got better. But I have a lot of stuff disabled. I use safari, games and messages.
Sorry but I have to say this, everyone has seen ios 7 and the way it looks and operates. Correct? Why did you update if you didn't like how it looks? The UI is nothing like Android! If you don't like the new look of Apples ios....sell it!! Get a different phone! Or tablet! Stop crying about the way it looks! Apple thought this was the way people wanted it. You people make me sick! Your never happy with Apple. Apple did this wrong! Apple did that wrong! It's Android! It's Windows! Just shut mm up! I'm deciding if I want to download it, but people like you have to hurry up and get it, and show your friends, so someone else doesn't like it so you don't like it. I'm waiting because I'm smarter. I don't need it right now because ios 6.1.2 is doing just fine. It's your fault! Not Apples!

HT5012 Why is ios 7 draining my battery?

Ever scince I got ios 7 my battery has gone from 100 to 80% in about 10 minutes

That is a little on the short side.
See the tips in the following for maximizing battery life;
http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipods.html
http://osxdaily.com/2013/09/19/ios-7-battery-life-fix/
Next would be to
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem that indicates the battery is wearing out

IPhone 5s IOS 8.1.1 battery drain using mail

Problem: battery drain is unacceptably high with -1% per five minutes
Description: after upgrading from IOS 7 to 8 the battery drain on my iPhone 5s (32GB) has hugely increased. Several tips on the internet have been tried from turning off several services to reinstalling the IOS none with no improvement. After reinstallation the drain was acceptable only to result in again a -1% drain per five minutes after a week.
Expected: using IOS 7 I could easily use the iPhone throughout the whole day with -1% per fifteen minutes. After installing an improved IOS one would expect similar or lower battery drain
Tests: as said, severals tips found on the internet have been tested none with any improvement. Deleting all accounts under "Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars" proved to be the only solution for this problem (a non-functional solution I must add since I'm using this iPhone for communication...). Even keeping the iCloud account but disabling all iCloud services did not improve the situation, only a real account deletion worked.
Question: do you know how to get battery drain back to -1% per fifteen minutes whilst maintaining my iCloud and Exchange account using IOS 8.1.1 on an iPhone 5s (32GB)?
Kind regards,
Ronald

Since upgrading my iPhone 6 to iOS 8.1, my battery has not been the same. I was able to get 9-10 hours of usage before and am lucky to get 6-7 hours. AppleCare thought that was on the low side and told me to visit my local Apple Store for a thorough diagnostic testing of the battery. My appointment is tomorrow. Will report back.

What is the normal amount of GB of Other Space for a new 32 GB Ipod touch 5 Generation with iOS 6.1.3? Also, will iOS 7 slow down/drain the battery of my device?

My Other storage space was at 2.84 GB after i loaded all my music/apps onto a recently purchased 32 GB Ipod touch 5 Generation with iOS 6.1.3. Resetting the settings and removing the music and apps did not help reduce the Other space. I restored to a backup and got my Other storage space down to almost 400 MB. When I started syncing music it grew 500-ish MB. Each time I sync, the Other grows a bit more. This is really irritating.
The official listed available GB on my 32 GB is 28.22 GB (not including Other), so now I am irritated knowing that this Other is taking up my space when I didn't even have 32 GB of free space to begin with. So 28.22 - 2.84GB = 25.38 GB.
I want to restore to a new device to see if that helps, but do not want to upgrade to i0S7. Is there any way to do this?
If I upgrade to i0S 7 I am worried it might slow my ipod or drain the battery faster. Will it do that? The ipod is expensive and I dont want it to go downhill and obsolete on me because it can't handle a better operating system.

Less than 1 1/5 GB is normal. It does grow with time.

My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

My iPod was updating to iOS 6 and i shut it off during the update because it was taking too long and now my screen in baby blue i've tried to drain the battery but when i plugged it in to charge the blue screen came back on.I dont know what to do

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IOS 5.0.1 Battery Drain Bug: Edge Network

I think I may have identified a use case that is causing significant battery draining on the current iOS 5.0.1. The use case is when a 3G enabled device switches to an Edge network signal, it increases battery drainage significantly on the Edge network. This includes draining the battery while in standby. Enabling or disabling location services makes little difference. Phone does heat up on Edge, even on standby. Phone behaves normally while on 3G network.

I would be interested to see if anyone else has thought to field test the below scenarios:
Being on the Edge Network by itself causes significant battery life drain
If the process of switching betweeen 3G and Edge networks (network search process) causes the battery drain.
Does battery life behave normally when on 3G, with no network interruptions?
Does battery life behave normally when on WiFi, with no network interruptions?
Does battery life behave normally when device is in Airplane mode?
Does battery life significantly drain when 3G is disabled on device?
