WhatsApp draining so much battery.

Hi everyone,

I recently got my iPhone XS, it’s battery performance was okay till this week when WhatsApp background activity started to drain it, what should I do?

Ps :I tried everything I turned on low battery mode and turned off it’s background refresh. I can’t replace the app because it is so crucial for me

iPhone XS

Perhaps your activity using Whatsapp is heavy.

I'm not saying that you do not have to use it, but be aware that being always online, sharing messages with pics, videos, emojis... can be very heavy for your battery.

How is your battery health? Settings>Battery>Battery health and tap on it.

Regards

Giulio
