Fingers crossed iPadOS 14.7.1 stops the AirTag battery drain on my iPad.

If it’s serious disable it. 

Then there’s no use having an AirTag

Flavour, Tumour, Hounour, what the hell is that? Where do we live? France with the other upper crust aristocrat pedigrees? 

Guess what? The battery life on the 12 lineup still sucks. 

Or maybe, just maybe, the World Wide Web extends to points farther out than your own head and people from the Commonwealth visit a site readily available on the internet and respond with a spelling normal to their local.

I sincerely hope that you’re not in the medical

profession either or the education field for that matter since you obviously have never heard of spellcheck. It’s tumor not tumour.  Also, your statement is absolutely ridiculous. 

I hope you’re not a lexicographer,  understanding that there are more than one way to spell words. “Tumour” is like any other British English spelling that often includes a “u” after an “o”. Flavour, honour, savour, saviour, candour, behaviour, colour, armour, demeanour, glamour, and harbour are all perfectly good spellings. 

As far as the original topic, my 6th gen iPad has had terrible battery drain after one of the 14.x updates, and the culprit seems to be Find My, with that app alone using 60% of battery whenever it’s off charge. It loses as much as 25% overnight, compared to 2-4% before. Turning off the “Find My Network” seems to help, but only a little. Apple ran a remote diagnostics and said the device seems fine from that perspective, and it’s not like I can uninstall and reinstall that app. 

So no motion detection and no “find my” features? At least it looks pretty... 

So Facebook doesn’t like having to pay for news, but they also don’t like Apple telling their users they’re being sold as commodities under Apple’s new privacy rules. Seems hypocritical to me...
