Hello internet peeps,
**Resolved 9/22/2022 - Re-paired iwatch resolved the issue
**Update 9/21/2022 (Preliminary RCA - appears to be pairing corruption or watchOS 9 bug on Series 5 iWatch)
I’m struggling to figure out this problem after upgrading from iPhone 13 Pro Max to iPhone 14 Pro Max.
My calendar (background activity) utilization is insanely high! I’ve run out of ideas on next steps and my battery is draining quickly.
Steps taken:
1. Removed all calendars (exchange, gmail, icloud) and restarted the device. Results = calendar background activity still high
2. Logged out of iCloud account and restarted device. Results = same high background activity
3. Changed from ‘Push’ to ‘Fetch’ for all accounts and changed frequency to ‘Manual’. Results = same high background activity
4. Removed calendar widgets and restarted device. Results = same high background activity
5. Unchecked ‘Other’ calendars in Calendar app (e.g. Birthdays, holidays, Siri suggestions) and restarted device. Results = same high background activity
6. Deleted custom lock screens that leveraged calendar widgets and restarted device. Results = same high background activity.
7. Closed Calendar app on iWatch as well. Results = same high background activity.
Any troubleshooting apps I can install to see what function is running in background? Any other ideas?
TIA
