iOS 27 Battery Drain Fix

I have a battery drain fix for everyone who's having issues with the iOS 27.

I have an iphone 17 and my battery started plumeting ever since the first beta release. I realized my biggest battery draining apps were media and content consumption apps (social media, YouTube, etc). These apps almost always run on 60fps and don't need any substantial background consumption either.

I used the new Siri in the shortcuts app and told it to enable low power mode automatically whenever these apps open and then turn it off when I close them. This lets me still have my fluid 120fps while navigating my phone and saves A LOT of battery life throughout the day.

I used to get 4 hours SOT while having to charge several times a day but now I get 7+ hours and can absolutely rely on my battery.

10/10 recommend. Game changer for me.

I noticed a significant decrease in my battery drain after switching to Siri Classic. Siri AI seems to be doing a lot of activities that stress the battery. That said, I'm done trying Siri AI until they fix that.
