5 reasons your battery life is worse after a software update
Summary
One of the first things your Android phone does is re-optimize installed apps, recompiling them to ensure they work efficiently with the new software version.

On the other hand, some updates may even intentionally reduce the maximum charge capacity of your device to preserve long-term battery health. These bugs may either be widespread or affect only a specific set of users based on usage patterns, but they can still lead to unexpected battery drain. This can give you a much clearer idea of whether the problem is related to specific apps, the update itself, or is it simply the case of battery aging over time.
