How to check battery usage on iPhone

The main disadvantage of modern iPhone batteries is that over time, the battery loses its capacity. The first symptom is fast device charging and discharging. If the battery has lost performance, you do not need to throw out the phone, the battery can be replaced. The main thing is to find out the degree of wear of the battery. Mr Fix specialists can cope with the iPhone repair in a matter of hours. Therefore it is important to know how to check battery usage on the iPhone.

In settings

      Over time, the battery capacity steadily decreases due to the constant charge-discharge cycle. This is normal – IPhone battery capacity drops by 20 percent after 500 cycles. Therefore, checking the iPhone battery is an important process. If the smartphone firmware is updated to 11.3 version and higher, then in the settings, you can find the information about the charge, usage and condition of the battery. Below we provide detailed instructions on how to check the battery on the iPhone.

      1. Open the “Settings” menu.

      2. Select “Battery”.

      3. Go to the “Battery Status” section.

      Your smartphone will show what is the maximum percentage of battery charge currently relative to the original value. If the figure is below 50 percent, then it is time to contact Mr Fix. The lower the maximum capacity is, the faster the phone discharges, and an increased number of charge cycles provokes an acceleration of battery wear.

      Many users are interested in how to check the battery on the iPhone, if this option is not provided in the settings.
