Christian SeligiPad feature request: auto "deep sleep" after 24h idle (10 seconds to wake is okay). iPads used to last over 30 days on standby, but every time I pick one up now after less than a week it's dead
Steve Jobs announcing the iPad 2:
Isaac Halvorson@christianselig I read somewhere that the Home app can often be a cause of consistent battery drain on iPads, even it’s not the home hub. I disabled Home on my iPad mini and it helped a bunch.
José María@hisaac @christianselig iPads cannot act as a home hub since iOS 16: https://www.macrumors.com/2022/06/22/ipados-16-no-ipad-home-hub-support/
@jmml @christianselig ah good to know! Disabling Home still helped my battery life considerably, but I guess home hub wasn’t the culprit.
@hisaac @christianselig the problem is disabling home prevents you from using the home app at all (even toggles from the control center)
@jmml @christianselig True. For me it was an acceptable trade off. Might not be for everyone.
