I have been using the same apps and everything for quite some time now. Nothing new has been added in a month yet my battery life has dropped a lot. Where I was going a day and a half or so I am now only getting a day. I have searched everything I could find in the phone, reinstalled the apps and nothing has worked.

What am I missing? I have obviously missed something in my checking of the phone.
 
How long have you had the phone? It does sound like a drastic loss but battery life does drop after some use as battery health declines. It may be worth installing Accubattery to get some idea of how much battery life your phone now has. It will tell you how much your phone came with and how much life is left in it.
 
Thanks for the info guys. I got the phone just after release or so. I am not much of a wifi user, last time I used it was at my bro's house up in the sticks of PA a week ago. @mustang7757 your screen shots look different to what my phone shows, I found it, never mind. Only one app shows any issues but I have had that app since getting the phone. I will keep searching and trying to figure it out and hope it changes back soon.
 
Look at your battery stats anything unusual high sometimes a app update can have a glitch , are you attached to anything Bluetooth or a watch?

I have noticed the same thing recently. Never had any battery issues, then a few days ago I started seeing usage going up. I don't see anything really crazy in my battery usage. Will monitor for a few more days to see if I can find an answer.
 
It seems like the recent Samsung flagships are showing some battery issues... I hope it isn't the actual quality of the batteries, I have a brand new ZFlip³ that I hope the battery lasts longer than a year on :eek:
 
I noticed now I am losing 30% power over night. I put my phone into do not disturb mode, typically it's 6 hours. It is getting out of hand now.
