Try resetting and restoring the phone and see if battery life improves.

Yes its better try to restore. I have the battery drain problem few days ago where my iphone6 become warm when browsing with safari which leads to severe battery drain. No problem with ios 8.1.1. Very weird problem as it is very sudden. Restore 8.1.2 and so far its become normal. My wife iphone 5s with ios 8.1 also have the same problem which leads to restoring to ios 8.1.2. Luckily 8.1.2 is jailbreakable, if not that would made me very upset. I suspect its somehow got to do with ios 8 bugs since i can see the cpu process is not normal during idle which should be less than 15% (using lirum app).

I concur though I would think that the main cause of battery drain to be apps running in the background even when u exited the app or the home button pressed. Like mentioned a complete erase and restore is absolutely necessary.

Tried restarting, soft reset but still the problem persist. Restoring seems to solve the problems. smile.gif

Based on my experience with the iPhone 6+.

Battery life was great on the first day. Clean phone so not restored from my old iPhone 5 backup.

Then I installed some apps and the battery started to drain more during the 3rd or 4th day but still way better than my iPhone 5.

Wasn't satisfied so I tried to reset settings and the stellar battery life came back. I tried switching background app refresh and the battery life is even better!

After installing some other apps yesterday, the battery started draining more than usual again today. I'm not sure whether its my FreeMyApps profile thats causing the battery drain since if I reset settings that profile is deleted.

It could be because of weather app accessing location services all the time too?

Anyone using Free My Apps here?

My record so far is 12hr with 40% battery life. Which is not bad considering I'm a moderate to heavy user.

When battery drain does your phone get hot? Yes I am using free my apps and no problem with it.
