It caused excessive battery drain and was slowing down some apps (like OneFootball for example).

Maybe that's because of the new version of iOS obviously

Had NextDNS profile configuration with Windscribe on demand on my Iphone14 pro. Changed for Adguard with DNS enabled (iOS app). Kept Windscribe. No battery drain after a week. Under 1%.
