Device battery issue

Maybe... I have Joule.ipa on my iPhone 6 and iPad Pro 9.7. I recently did a 9-hour cook making Char Siu. I kept an eye on things with my iPad Pro, but also had the app open on my iPhone 6 when I was out of the house or in another room. Most of the time I never LOOKED at my iPhone. However, that night when I finished the cook and was quitting all the apps on both devices, I noted that my iPhone battery had dropped from about 85% in the morning to under 19% that night. Not so much the iPad Pro.

Anyone else noting heavy battery impact on their iPhone or Android phones over long cooks???

Constant use of Bluetooth is a known battery eater. iPhone 6 has Bluetooth 4.0, where as iPad Pro has version 4.2 and is much more efficient.

The Bluetooth itself wouldn't cause a significant battery drain- the iPhone 6 also has Bluetooth 4.2 BLE (low energy). I, too, seem to be draining my battery quicker while using the app on my iPhone 6s while using my joule, however in settings it appears that the joule app has only used 2 % of my battery with only 1 minute onscreen time. So maybe the app isn't to blame, although I felt the same on a previous use. My cook time was only 3 hours. I'll keep a closer eye out to see if that's really it.

I have the same problem now. What did you decide to do in the end?

I think you should replace your battery. I used my iPhone 7 for 4 years because I had financial problems and couldn't buy a new phone. I changed the battery in this phone 3 times because it discharged literally in an hour and a half. You can just replace the battery, but you should understand that this is not the solution to the problem in any case. It is best to buy a new device. By the way, you can sell your old phone on https://buybackboss.com/iphone-trade-in/. Thanks to this site, I was able to sell my iPhone 7 and get some money for it.
