iOS 8 Battery Saving Tips.

Some of the below are in my previous iOS7 Battery Saving Tips help thread here

A new feature lets you see which App is using how much battery.
Settings ~ General ~ Usage ~ Battery Usage.

You can then force close the App by pressing the Home Button Twice ,and sliding the tile up ,or if you can live without the App then perhaps delete it.

If you want to still use the App then you could look at disabling its Location Services.

Settings ~ General ~ Background App Refresh features for that particular App to stop it eating away at battery life.

Settings ~ Privacy ~ Location Services and Background App Refresh.

If no help try a restore.

Which iPhone are you using ?

Look at the battery hog settings in the phone to see if a particular app is eating battery.

Let us know how you get on.

Go to Settings, General, Usage, Battery Usage - wait for the list to populate and see the proportion of battery used by each app when the phone is not charging,
