S22 Ultra - Massive battery drain after latest update

[ashara-dayne]

I'm seeing a massive battery drain issue with my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra after the latest software update, which I believe was the August security patch. I had zero battery issues prior to this, with the battery lasting anywhere between 2 or 3 days on a single charge with moderate usage. After the update, the battery simply and inexplicably drains, even the phone is left completely unused, and will not last for more than a few hours. I have checked to see if there are any apps responsible, and the Device Care feature informs me that there are no such apps, and that performance is optimised.

Anyone else facing this problem?

Background application should be not run ,schedule your phone to reboot everyday in night ,use device care in every 30 min ,if you are counting multiple non samsung smart device dnt use ,use only samsung smart watch,samsung buds it's optimize your phone

Nah, I can't afford to reboot my device every night, as the phone doesn't actually start up until it is unlocked post the reboot, and I am dependent on multiple apps in the morning. And who in the world has the time to go on Device Care every 30 minutes?! This isn't an issue with apps and reboots, but with the software itself, as I've mentioned, and Samsung need to fix this from their end.

This is not a problem with the device, but has something to do with the software itself. As I've stated, there were no problems with the battery until just a few days ago, and started appearing all of a sudden after the update.
