Is anyone having any iOS battery problems?

I'm running TCG Live on my month old iPhone 14 Pro and my overall battery percentage has already decreased to 96% due to overheating from the app. I was tempted to submit a report to the apple app store, but wanted to verify it was not just me.

    I have a lot of heat/ battery drain on the same device. I haven't had any decrease in battery health but I try to only play one or two games at a time on mobile because of the heat it generates.

    This is an issue on Android as well this game desperately needs a battery saver option.

    Getting awful battery drain on Android too. I don't think it needs a battery saver option, I think it needs fixing in general. Poorly optimised for mobile devices.

    This is what happens when you use a 3D game engine to render a 2D game with some 3D effects...

    I've been having issues with overheating and excessive battery drain since day 1 with the mobile app [pensive]

    This happens even when I have low power mode enabled on my phone and regardless of whether I'm using wifi or data. I'm using an iPhone 12 mini which isn't the most recent model but isn't super old either. It's a 2020 model and I've only had it out of the box for a few months.

    The specific ios I'm on is 15.6 but I doubt updating that would fix the battery drain when it's ostensibly an issue with the app itself.

    High heat and battery drain of 1% minute on the latest iPhone Pro. Same on an M2 Mac, but less of a percentage per minute due to the battery size.

    I do my dailies and log off. Not a game I’d play on the go until they fix the issue. I’ve seen no acknowledgment as we march towards release.
