My iPad only lasts a few days even with zero use. I have not been able to figure out what settings to modify so that I can (for example) pick it up a month later and not find the battery dead.

Harsh suggestion: log out of iCloud on the device.

If that works you can try to isolate it further.

>>JKCalh+r8
how do you work without iCloud?

Yes, I realize alternatives exist, but this works so smoothly on Apple devices.

Yeah, it's just to see if that is the issue. It's possible a massive or constant sync from Files or Photos is what is pulling down your battery.

I mean, switching to Airplane mode is another thing worth trying.

As is rebooting the phone.
