Hello,

These are the standard steps for short battery life:

1) Have you tried a restart?  If not, do it now.

2) Go to Settings > Battery > BATTERY USAGE BY APP to see the apps that are consuming your battery.

3) Check “Battery Health” in the link: 

iPhone Battery and Performance

4) If all else fails, consider a battery replacement:

iPhone Battery & Power Repair

Good luck.

Thank you for your willingness to help. I'm a long-time iPhone user and have tried everything that usually works. This was very sudden and the drop itself is sudden during the day. From 100% at 9 a.m. when I unplugged, the phone was in the 90s - only a few calls and texts - at 3. By 5:30 it was at 26% - and I had not used it at all. Power was on but screen was in sleep mode.
