    Hi All,
    My I Pad 2 keeps dying over night it seems if it is below 50% it is dead in the morning.
    Closed off all Apps running in the back round.
    Any ideas. Thanks in advance.

    Could it be the battery memory. My 4s can turn of at 30% at times. I need to charge it 100% and some more and that fixes it. It's just the battery coming to its end.

    Try charge it over night. See what happens then

    1. Start by doing a soft reset. Hold the home+power key in until the device switches off. Then start it up again.

    2. Switch off bluetooth unless you are using it.

    3. Go into your Settings->Notifications and disable every app except critical ones you need notifications from.

    4. Check to see how your iCloud backups are working. They normally happen at night, so if it's not getting a proper backup it could be related.

    Other then that, might need a battery replaced. Contact the store you bought it from or Apple. New EU laws you no longer need AppleCare.

    Does it get warm at all? I'd definitely try restoring first.

    Thats the link for the replacement battery service. €111.30 for a new battery. But i would def do a restore to new first. Set up the ipad with nothing on it and test the battery. If the battery seems better then its something you have installed.

    Here is the Apple support page to help you back it up and set up as new
