iPad battery drain after update to iOS 7 After update to iOS 7.0.4 from version 5.x, my iPad's battery has only fraction of full charge as fast as in 24 hours. I also noticed that iPad is staying warm even after several hours of idle time with a closed Smart Cover. I still failed to accept iCloud Terms&amp;Conditions, as it always reports 'Unable to connect to server'.

What I already tried with no result:


disable bluetooth
turn Off Location Services
under Location Services, made sure no apps used GPS within last 24 hours
turn off Automatic Updates
enabled Accessibility>Reduce Motion
disable Background App Refresh
in Spotlight Search, keep only Applications; disable everything else
clear any launched earlier, to make sure there's no apps remaining idle in the background
yurkennis! I haven't seen that problem with iOS 7.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?

Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.

Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

If these don't correct the problem connect to iTunes and do a restore.

If all else fails to do so:

In Settings, turn on Airplane mode, then reset your device by holding Power + Home button 15 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Power back on, then turn off Airplane mode.
