Anyone have an ideas on what app(s) could be the culprit? It seems to be regular enough to have it be 469 hits a day! Which is nuts. I would ask her, but as many children of a parent know’s, that’s like pulling teeth lol… But I figured some more tech savvy folks here might actually already have the answer as Reddit and search engines aren’t as reliable these days. 😣 Thanks in advance for any help as I’m stumped to figure it out as she complains about the battery drain incessantly.

I'm not familiar with iOS, but I assume that it's similar to Android, and you can kill an app.

It looks like you have a counter there, which I assume ticks up for each connection.

Make a list of open apps.

Kill the first half of them.

If the counter stops ticking up, it was in that half. If not, it was in the other.

If it was in the half that you killed, kill the running apps.

Now open half of the "still suspect" list.

Repeat what you did above. Each pass eliminates half of the remaining apps, so you should be able to get it in log₂(N), where N is the number of initially running apps.
