In either standard Firefox, when I watch Youtube videos, roughly 1% of battery charge is used per minute of viewing, i.e. if I watch 20 minutes of a video, my charge has gone down 20%. Is there something I can do to fix this besides getting rid of Firefox?

Hi

Yes, this does sound more like a phone issue than a Firefox for iOS issue.

It's an iPhone 6S. The OS for the phone is 15.7.3. The Firefox version is 109.0. Battery was replaced. I stopped using Firefox for now. I'm using Safari. It's helped, but the battery still drains faster. I think the phone may be on its way out. This was sudden. A month ago, everything was fine. I think though it might be time to replace the phone.
