Battery drain after ios 16.6 Iphone 11

HI,

I just updated my phone to ios 16.6 a week ago and since then my battery drains so fast even when i'm not using my device. I wake up with a drop of 16 per cent overnight. It's a nightmare. I have a 92 per cent as a battery health. I tried everything, changed the settings, make a factory reset, shut down the iphone, forced the restart, literally everything. What should i do? Please help me!!!!

iPhone 11, iOS 16

Changes in software such as upgrades may introduce new features which may add to power drain and heat generation. Check Settings > Battery feature to see if there are apps or services running that use a lot of power. If there are, decide if you need them running all the time, can turn off a service when an app is in the background, or disable the feature completely.

Addendum to #11. Use 4G/LTE instead of 5G. Use 5G with your iPad - Apple Support
