Major battery drain on new iPad Pro 10.5

Hi there,

I just got a new 10.5" iPad Pro Wi-Fi; moved up to it from an iPad Mini 3 running iOS 10.3.3. Backed up the old iPad, updated the iPad Pro to the latest iOS as it was running an older version and then restored from backup.

I've been enjoying the new iPad tremendously but have noticed an annoyingly painful issue: major battery drain without using the iPad much. I went to bed with the iPad hovering around 85 percent and woke up to it at 51. Saw that Chrome was consuming the most battery from being in the background so I turned off the Background App refresh and started closing it whenever I wasn't using it - something I never had to do with the iPad Mini. It's currently sitting at 16 percent and I've been watching the battery drop rapidly whenever I'm actually using the device, which again isn't much use.

Any hints on what to do? I understand that the bigger device uses more power, but seeing the battery deplete at this rate seems a bit too much.

Thanks!

Hi. You should not need to close (force quit) Chrome when not using it.

Are you letting iPad sleep when not using the device?

What are the major battery users now?

How many hours usage are you seeing from full charge down to 10%, say? See Settings > Battery.

Thanks for the reply! I thought it was weird to need to close Chrome as I've never had to do that on any device.

The iPad is in a smart cover that I fold over the screen when not in use, so the depletion happens behind the cover. The major battery user is Chrome at 64 percent with a 'Background Activity' marker under it. Keep in mind the Background App Refresh is now off.

I've also charged the iPad to one hundred percent twice but the Time Since Last Full Charge shows dashes for both parameters.

Hope this helps - thanks again.
