After the latest OS update, my 14 pro max is periodically draining like 20% of the batter my overnight. 2 of the last 3 nights it’s dropped ~20% while I’m sleeping, but the other night was normal and only dropped like 1%. Battery usage stats showing minimal background usage by apps (maybe 35min in aggregate). Battery usage graph is just a steady drain all night.

Any ideas?

Taking a lot of pictures / videos?

Probably syncing your photos at night.

Might not show up as an app because it’s iCloud/system

That said, 14 is probably starting to get to the point where a new battery wouldn’t hurt

No pics. Battery health at 91%. It’s just weird since it’s intermittent. Some nights it doesn’t use any power while idling. And also the fact that it was an immediate start, didn’t gradually get worse.

Technology is frustrating sometimes.

What’s the word on the Apple Vision thing? I don’t know too much about it and didn’t bother looking into it since it’s not available in Canada. But I am currently in California and I got to thinking now would be a good time to pick one up and bring it back but I am struggling to find a use for it and at $3500USD for the cheapest version, not sure sure if it’s worth it.

You need to be on US Apple ID to use it.

My boss has it. It’s kinda cool but he got bored of it quickly. It’s a first gen product really designed for people looking for ideas to develop on the platform. It does some cool stuff but not $4k cool.

Ah that’s interesting and good to know. Saved me a chunk of cash I guess.
