Apple fans have flooded social media to complain the battery life of their iPhone handsets has plummeted seemingly overnight.
Twitter is awash with claims the power shortages have been caused by the firm preparing for the UK and US release of its iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max tomorrow.
One user claimed their iPhone 6S Plus battery drops by almost 50 per cent in less than 15 minutes since the announcement.
Another asked: 'Did anyone else's iPhone battery life just get cut in half?'
Although there is some truth to the claims, it is not evidence of an Apple conspiracy to force users to upgrade to the latest handset.
Instead, the recent release of iOS 12 has demanded additional resources from their gadgets while it downloads, installs and re-indexes data stored on the iPhone.

Apple fans have taken to social media to complain that the battery life of their iPhones has plummeted virtually overnight
The process usually only takes up to 48 hours, but that hasn't stopped people taking to Twitter to complain.
User Nicole Grogan tweeted: 'I swear to God a week ago my battery life on my iPhone 8 was impeccable and as of like, today, it’s game over'.

Davo Howarth said: 'My iPhone X battery life has suddenly decided it cba anymore.
'Fair play, only costs me a million pounds a month. Bobbins'.
Apple rolled out its iOS 12 software update on Monday.
It is this upgrade that is believed to be throttling gadgets across the world.
During a major upgrade, a big chunk of the codes and systems that make up your phone are completely rearranged to boost the gadget's speed and efficiency.
New features, like the smart photo albums in Apple's Photos app which automatically collates and categorises similar pictures together, require the operating system to trawl through all the available photographs stored on the device.
Voice assistant Siri will also completely re-index all of the apps, documents and data stored on the device, so that it is able to surface the correct search results.
This puts a heavy demand on your iPhone's processor, which drains your battery.

The process only lasts for between 24 and 48 hours, meaning your battery life should be back to normal two days after the update.
However, this is not the only reason your battery life may be struggling.
Following big iOS updates, many app developers release new updates for their software to support the new software's features.
If you have your Automatic App Updates switched on, these updates happen in the background throughout the day.
This adds to the strain your processor is under, further draining your battery life until the apps are updated.
Users are also more likely to use their devices following a big update, adding more load to your already overloaded gadget.

Apple launched pre-sales for its hotly-anticipated new flagship smartphones last Friday.
The £999 ($999) iPhone XS and £1,099 ($1,099) XS Max battled it out to be crowned Apple's fastest selling smartphone of all time.
The most expensive iPhone of all time - the £1,449 512GB XS Max - sold out in its space grey and gold finishes in under half an hour.
Customers looking to buy the phone were told to wait up to three weeks for Apple's next batch to arrive.
The iPhone XR, Apple's new 'budget' handset priced at $749 (£749), will not be available for pre-order until October.
Last year's iPhone X pre-orders were snapped up in under an hour by Apple fans, with those who missed the window forced to wait until December for a re-stock.

One user ...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
