iOS 11 draining data

Has anyone else noticed that updating to iOS 11 has drained their data? I have used what normally lasts me a month, 1gb, in just 6 days!

    If you recently updated the iOS then something might be switched on and using your mobile data
  • I’ve been through and altered all my settings but there was nothing obvious apart from the iCloud Drive being on. Turned most apps off mobile data and updates only when I’m on WiFi. Will see how it goes. Battery hasn’t been last a day either sonthere is definitely something causing the drain.
  • Have you got WiFi Assist switched on ?

    Photos now upload to iCloud over mobile data, try turning that off
  • Thank you, I’ve turned both of those off too :-)
