I’ve read about it on ipad last night and - from 68% to 0% it looks like battery drain speed up and lasted less than 30 mins. Other than that - on my (now 3 years old?) iPhoneX / 256 everything seems normal? Maybe you should add LowPowerMode to iPads too? I was trying to figure ouy what causes battery draining and think it could be one of the processes / background tasks from Safari... I used all latest apps + have just 16gb ram on iPadAir

Let us know what it might be?

User-centric questions/complaints for release OSs are perhaps better suited for Apple's public community forums rather than risk off-topic here in devForums, thanks and good luck.

I am experiencing the same problem. The battery drains too fast even when I am on an airplane mode with wifi and Bluetooth off (just for the sake of slowing down the drainage). Not only that but the charger that the Ipad came with doesn’t charge it and instead I need to use the charger of the Mac. After calling customer care I restarted and rebooted the device, the problem persisted. I am now using another iPad Air 4th generation (as the first one) and to my surprise - the second device is behaving the same way as the first one. Could that be a general problem with all new IPad devices?
