There are several factors that can cause an iPad battery to drain quickly: Brightness: Keeping the screen brightness level at maximum can consume a lot of battery power. Lowering the brightness or using auto-brightness can help extend battery life. Background App Refresh: Having background app refresh enabled allows apps to constantly update even when they're not in use, draining battery power. Location Services: Using location services, such as GPS or "Find My iPad," can also drain battery power. Push Email: Having push email enabled allows your iPad to constantly receive new emails, which can consume a lot of battery power. Apps Running in the Background: Leaving multiple apps running in the background can drain battery power. Age of the Battery: Over time, the battery in an iPad may start to degrade, leading to a shorter battery life. Software Update: Updating to the latest version of iOS can also sometimes cause temporary battery drain. To extend the battery life of your iPad, you can try the following tips: Lower the brightness or use auto-brightness. Turn off background app refresh for apps that don't need it. Turn off location services for apps that don't require them. Disable push email or fetch new data less frequently. Close apps that are running in the background. If the battery life continues to decline despite trying these tips, you may consider getting your iPad battery replaced by an Apple service provider. If you're still having trouble with battery life after trying these tips, it may be helpful to reset your iPad to its factory settings. This can help resolve any software-related issues that may be affecting battery life.
