How to properly and safely charge an iPhone after purchase? No battery calibration

💖 Do you like it? Share the link with your friends

Hi all! It would seem that the answer to this question is quite simple and you need to charge the iPhone exactly so much time until the charge is full and its indicator continues to light up next to the battery icon. As soon as the battery indicator turns green and is completely full, that’s it, you can safely turn off the charger. Logical? Of course!

However, there is another side to the issue. For example, some users want to know the exact number of hours and minutes that an iPhone should be charged. And they have the right to do so - such data is never superfluous. Also, I am especially often asked about how long a new, just purchased iPhone should be recharged.

In general, I can only explain all this fuss about “charging time” by the fact that there is still some kind of magic hovering around the iPhone. Beginners are afraid of doing something wrong and damaging the device in some way, even when it comes to something as simple as recharging. Looking ahead, I can note that this is practically impossible. But first things first, let's get started!

The first thing you need to pay attention to is that charging times, even for two identical iPhones, will never be 100% the same. The rate at which energy is filled depends on many factors, and here are some of them:

  • How full the battery is initially.
  • Is the original wire (power supply) used?
  • Where does the power come from (computer or outlet).
  • Adapter power. For example, Apple officially charges the iPhone. And of course, in this case everything will go much faster.
  • Is the smartphone in airplane mode, connected to Wi-Fi or cellular networks, etc.

And this is not all the moments! So if your friend’s phone charges in 2 hours, and yours in 2 hours 30 minutes, then this in no way means that you have a defect, and you should run to change it.

However, there are some average iPhone charging times:

Average charging time
Adapter includedPower 5 Watt, current 1 AmperePower 18 Watt
iPhone 4, 4S, 51 hour 40 minutes
iPhone 5S, 5C1 hour 50 minutes
iPhone 5SE, 6, 6S2 hours 10 minutes
iPhone 6 Plus, 6S Plus3 hours 30 minutes
iPhone 72 hours 20 minutes
iPhone 7 Plus3 hours 40 minutes
iPhone 82 hours 10 minutes
iPhone 8 Plus3 hours 30 minutes
iPhone X3 hours 30 minutes
iPhone XS3 hours 20 minutes
iPhone XS Max3 hours 50 minutes
iPhone XR3 hours 40 minutes
iPhone 113 hours 50 minutes
iPhone 11 Pro
1 hour 45 minutes
iPhone 11 Pro Max 2 hours

A few important notes about this table:

  • This refers to how long it takes to charge from 0 to 100%.
  • Some models were combined into one line due to the fact that their battery capacity differs only slightly, and it makes no sense to check the time with an accuracy of minutes.
  • The data is indicated when using a standard (included) power supply.
  • All figures are approximate, just for reference. You may have more or less.

Useful feature! Useful for those who want to charge faster - use airplane mode. In places with an unstable cellular network signal, such an operation will help speed up the process by 20-30%.

It is also important to remember these things:

  1. Up to 80% of the iPhone is so-called fast charging, the next 20% is much slower.
  2. How long does it take to charge new and newly purchased iPhones? The same amount as those already used. Without any frills or distortions (like fully charging three times, then completely discharging, etc.). Modern batteries do not require such calibrations.
  3. When it reaches full charge, there is no need to run and rush to turn it off. Nothing bad will happen - there are special controllers built into the iPhone itself, the power supply and even the cable that will prevent the smartphone from being “oversaturated” with energy and thus deteriorating.
  4. iPhone can be charged many times. Not even that. A lot of times! Why? Read my personal experience about how I did it after 2.5 years of use and what happened to it.

Conclusion: charge your iPhone as much as it (and most importantly, you!) needs. Don't chase exact indicators and don't complicate your life.

P.S. I forgot to say that every “+1” to the article is +10% to the health of the battery. Such a bonus will definitely not be superfluous, right? Don't be shy and "like"! :)

P.S.S. Do you have any questions or questions? Feel free to ask them in the comments - we’ll try to solve your problem together!

Over time, some users notice that the iPhone 7 plus takes a long time to charge. The cause may be a battery failure or incorrect settings. The use of non-original chargers, cables, and accessories often causes long charging times.

Typical software problems

The smartphone may take a long time to charge due to many background applications running - location services, social networks, games, cameras, etc.

To disable geolocation you need to:

  1. Open the "Privacy" option.
  2. Select "Location Services".
  3. In the list, you need to remove the slider from applications that the user does not use - move it to the “off” position.

This will save approximately 20% of charging. To achieve the best effect, you can configure other options:

  1. Automatic software updates. The function is disabled in the “Automatic content update” menu - the item must be turned off. The option can be deactivated for all or specific programs.
  2. Automatic brightness adjustment. Due to the screen backlight being too bright, the charge is consumed much faster and is inappropriate. It is necessary to set the optimal settings manually or automatically by activating the “Auto-Brightness” function in the options so that the backlight matches the lighting without user intervention.
  3. Turn off push notifications in the Notification Center.
  4. “Modem mode” is enabled. iPhone 7 Plus can take a long time to charge due to activated Wi-Fi Internet autodistribution.
  5. The reason may also be synchronization of the smartphone with the PC.

To solve the problem, you need to reset the settings, return to factory settings and update the OS by connecting the device to the computer.

Mechanical problems

Apple products are sensitive to use with accessories and devices from other manufacturers. For charging and connecting to a PC, you must use only original cables, power adapters, and accessories from Apple. Therefore, to the question why the iPhone 7 plus takes a long time to charge, the answer may lie in the incorrect operation of the gadget with non-original chargers.

Low battery power occurs due to a faulty power controller. It is damaged due to:

  • mechanical damage due to impacts, falls, oxidation;
  • malfunction of smartphone parts - the iPhone 7 plus battery may be mechanically damaged, or there are other hardware faults;
  • moisture got on the microcircuits, in the case, operation of the device under conditions of sudden temperature changes - improper use;
  • Dust and debris have entered the connector.

These factors are often the key reasons why the device takes a long time to charge.

Indirectly, the charging speed is affected by a number of points that must be followed:

  1. Battery calibration - from 0% to 100%.
  2. You cannot charge your phone at low ambient temperatures or in a case.
  3. Update firmware.

Sometimes, to resolve the issue, it is enough to purchase a new original charger due to the fact that the device has low power or is out of order.

How to quickly charge iPhone 7 plus?

To charge the battery faster to 100%, a number of manipulations are performed.

  1. Turn on airplane mode. It is impossible to use communication in airplane mode, but due to the lack of a network, the gadget will charge faster. So, in the least amount of time you can charge your phone to maximum.
  2. The best solution would be to completely turn off the smartphone. This must be done after connecting the device to a power source, otherwise it will start on its own after connecting the cable.

In order for the iPhone 7 plus, its battery and other components to work for a long time, without failures, you must adhere to the operating rules, use high-quality original accessories, chargers and cables.

Is your iPhone charging slowly (long, poorly) and you don’t know why? The reason for this could be problems with the charging port, cable, charger or software - just 4 components involved in the charging process. In this article, I will explain the possible reasons for the slow (long) charging of your iPhone and tell you how to solve this problem!

Most often, the iPhone charges slowly (long, poorly) for one of these reasons:

1. Using a charger with low power. Think of a fire hose. If voltage is the speed of water supply, then current is the width of the hose, or how much water the hose passes per unit of time. The iPhone's voltage is constant - 5 volts, but the current varies depending on the charger - usually it ranges from 500 mA (milliamps) to 2.1 amps, which equals 2100 milliamps. The higher this indicator is on the charger, the faster your iPhone will charge.

2. There might be some debris stuck in the charging port of your phone. The charging cable has 8 pins, and if any of them are dirty, the charging process will slow down significantly or stop altogether.

Warning about the dangers of "fast" chargers with too high amperage

Apple products charge at a current of 2.1 amperes and this is the maximum possible charging power for equipment of this brand. Many fast chargers have more power than 2.1 amps, so they are not safe to use for Apple devices. The phone battery may be damaged.

Why does the iPhone charge slowly (poorly and for a long time) in the car?

Let's look separately at why your iPhone charges slowly (long, poorly) in a car (perhaps this is the reason why you were looking for this article). As already discussed, the docking station or cigarette lighter adapter often has insufficient amperage. And the lower this value, the slower the device charges.

If you want to increase the charging speed of your iPhone in your car, check your charger. Your phone will charge faster if you connect it to a more powerful car dock.

Clean your iPhone's charging port with an antistatic brush

First, try to clear any debris or dirt from your iPhone's charging port. We recommend using an antistatic brush, which can be purchased at Apple stores. If you do not have such an antistatic brush, then use a cotton swab or toothbrush.

Use a brush to clean the charging connector, inside and out, to remove any lint, dirt, crumbs, or dust. You'd be surprised how much trash there can be!

After cleaning the charging port, try charging your iPhone again. Is it charging normally? If not, try cleaning the connector again; sometimes the dirt eats in so deeply that you can’t get it out the first time. If it doesn’t help again, and the iPhone still charges poorly and slowly, then read on!

Check the functionality of your iPhone charging cable

The next important part of the charging process is the cable. If it is damaged or frayed in any place, then this may be the reason for your iPhone's slow charging.

Carefully inspect the wire for damage. In the picture below you will see what a frayed cable looks like.

If you think your cable is bad, then try charging your iPhone using any other cable. If you think you need to replace the cord, we highly recommend one of our MFi cables designed specifically for Apple products.

Try different chargers

Not all chargers are the same! Charging your phone with insufficient amperage is the cause of slow battery life.

If you don't know how much power your charge source has, try connecting your iPhone to different sources. If you usually charge your device through your laptop using a USB cable, try plugging your iPhone into a wall outlet (or vice versa). Why, what to do? (Air, mini, Pro)

Recover iPhone using DFU mode, last possible method

Many people overlook the software component of the device charging process. Every time the power cord is inserted into the device, the charging software is launched. This means that if the program does not work correctly, then the iPhone may charge poorly and slowly, even without problems with the connector, cord or power source.


If your iPhone is still under warranty, contact the place of purchase and consult with the seller to resolve the issue.

The device began to charge faster!

And now your phone is charging normally again and you don’t have to wait all day for the batteries to become full. Now that you have learned the reasons for slow (bad, long) iPhone charging, we hope that you will share this article with your loved ones who may also need this information! If you have any questions, please ask them in the comments section below.

I'm sure each of you charges your iPhone in a chaotic manner. Having a battery “power reserve” equal to one astronomical day, we always try to recharge on the go... even if by 10-20%.

On the other hand, almost every night our iPhones “fry” on charge for more than 7 hours. In this article we will find out how to charge iPhone correctly and how such erratic connections with the charger affect the life of the battery. Go!

Well, now some of you will say “ Wow, what the hell are you telling us...???" I agree... no one ever has any special questions about charging the iPhone.

There are a couple of interesting nuances that not many people know about. So, I tried to collect all these nuances and post them in one article... For your general development! Read – it will be informative and interesting!

How to properly charge a new iPhone

There are many theories about how to properly charge a new iPhone. I'll tell you how I usually do it myself. There’s nothing like that here, it’s just that if you think about it, it’s better to do the first couple of charging cycles according to the instructions below:

  1. After taking your iPhone out of the box, connect it to the charger
  2. After the iPhone is charged to 100%, feel free to use it and let it completely discharge
  3. After the battery is completely drained and your iPhone turns off, connect it to the charger again
  4. Charge your phone to 100% without using it while charging.

It will be better if you do a couple of complete charge/discharge cycles. After this, you can charge your phone as you are used to doing before. Read about other nuances below.

Should I leave my iPhone on charge overnight?

In order to answer this question, you need to clearly understand what happens to your iPhone after connecting to the power adapter. It’s worth saying right away that charging process iPhone batteries (as well as any modern gadgets) controlled by the iPhone's built-in charging controller.

This controller does not allow the battery to be overcharged, and at the same time tries to charge it in the shortest reasonable time. At the same time, up to 80% of the battery is charged at a fairly fast pace, and the last 20%, on the contrary, is charged in slow motion.

Once the battery is charged, the charge controller turns off the power supply. The battery is left alone, as it were, without transferring or taking charge from it. In this case, the phone itself is powered from the charger.

In other words, during this period of time the battery is neither charged nor discharged. Therefore, the myth that after reaching 100% charge, the battery goes into a cyclic discharge/recharge mode is complete nonsense. If this were the case, the battery would be subject to additional wear and tear. Which, in fact, is NOT needed by anyone.

Okay... Now let's look at one more fact. Any battery is prone to self-discharge. This is a completely normal process of losing charge, provided that the battery is not connected to anything. Lithium polymer batteries have a self-discharge rate of 5% per month, which is essentially very little (compared to other types of batteries).

The charging controller, of course, periodically checks the remaining charge of the battery and if it detects a significant loss of charge, it will begin a new charging cycle. This situation will arise only after losing at least 2% of the charge, which in turn can happen no more than once every two weeks.

So, if you leave your iPhone on charge for a whole month, it's possible that the built-in battery will go through a recharge cycle once or twice.

CONCLUSION: From the above it follows that LETTING YOUR IPHONE CHARGED ALL NIGHT WILL NOT HARM IT IN ANY WAY.

Which power adapter to use

Standard power adapter for iPhone(5V, 1A, 5W) fully charges an average phone in about 1 hour 30 minutes. I can't say anything more about this adapter. Well he's ordinary...

A little theory about Apple power adapters. They all have a voltage of 5 volts (V), but different current, which is measured in amperes (A) and power, which is measured in watts (W). These three quantities are related by a simple formula: V x A = W.

  1. Example 1: The 5V and 1A power adapter has a power of 5W (standard iPhone charging)
  2. Example 2: A 5V and 2.1A power adapter will already have a power of 10W (charging for iPad)

Can I use the iPad power adapter to charge my iPhone? The answer to this question YES YOU CAN. And here the smartest of you should say “ Why are you soaring again! This is harmful to the battery!" Good good! Let's look into this issue too...

The thing is that the car electrical network is far from being a standard for voltage/current stability, and those cheap car chargers that many people use cannot protect the phone from surges in the car’s electrical network.

If you encounter a problem when your phone stops charging, does not even accept the original charger and cable, takes a very long time to charge or does not charge completely - most likely the problem is a damaged charging controller. And believe me, in 90% of such cases, car chargers are to blame.

If you really spend most of your working day on the road and it is vital for you to charge your iPhone from your car's cigarette lighter, don't skimp when buying a car charger. It’s better to overpay a couple of dollars, but get a obviously high-quality branded item.

Personally, I like the company's products Ugreen, which I wrote about above. All the products I have purchased from them inspire confidence and really work. The simplest one at 5V and 1A (which is just right for charging an iPhone in a car) costs $6.99.

Long-term iPhone storage

If for some reason you decide to put your iPhone away for long-term storage, be sure to follow the rules below:

  • Charge your iPhone to about 50%. Storing the device with a fully charged battery may result in the battery losing some of its original capacity. Conversely, if you store the device with a completely discharged battery, it may go into a deep discharge state;
  • Turn off the device;
  • Store the device in a dry place with an ambient temperature of no more than 32C;
  • If your iPhone is going to sit on the shelf for more than six months, charge it to 50% every 6 months.

So how to properly charge your iPhone? As you probably understood from the article, there are no special rules. The iPhone has built-in foolproof protection (also known as a power controller) so that any user does not have to worry about charging the phone. As a personal example, I used an iPhone 4S for four years and charged it chaotically.

Most often it was fully charged overnight, but sometimes I had to connect it to the power adapter during the day. And what happened to the battery after 4 years? Yes, nothing happened... She still holds on, plus or minus one day.

So don't worry too much about charging your iPhone. Charge it whenever you want and as much as you want. The main thing is not to use dubious Chinese chargers.

I'm sure any of you charge your own iPhone in a haphazard manner. Having a battery “power reserve” equal to one astronomical day, we always try to recharge on the go... even if only by 10-20%. On the other hand, almost every night our iPhones “fry” on charge for more than 7 hours. In this article we will find out how true charge iPhone and how such erratic connections with the charger affect the life of the battery. Go!

Correctly charging the new iPhone.

There are many theories floating around about how to properly charge a new iPhone. I’ll tell you how I usually do it myself. There is nothing like that here, it’s just that, if you think sensibly, then the first couple of charging cycles are better done according to the annotation below:

2 After the iPhone is charged to 100%, feel free to use it and let it discharge completely.

3 After the battery is completely drained and the iPhone turns off, connect it to the charger again.

4 Charge your phone to 100% without using it while charging.

It will be better if you do a couple of full charge/discharge cycles. Then you can charge the phone as you are used to doing before. Read about other aspects below.

CONCLUSION: From the above it follows that BY LEAVING THE IPHONE ON CHARGING ALL NIGHT, YOU DO NOT HARM IT AT ALL.

Which power adapter should I use?

A standard iPhone power adapter (5V, 1A, 5W) will fully charge the average phone in approximately 1 hour 30 minutes. I can't say anything more about this adapter. Well, he's ordinary...

Some theories about Apple power adapters.

They all have a voltage of 5 volts (V), but different current, which is measured in amperes (A) and power, which is measured in watts (W). These three quantities are related to each other by the usual formula: V x A = W.

Example 1: 5V and 1A power adapter has 5W power (standard iPhone charging)

Can I use the iPad's power adapter to charge? iPhone? The answer to this question is YES, YOU CAN And here the smartest one of you should say, “Why are you soaring again!” This is harmful to the battery! " Good good! Let's look into this issue too...

First! On the official Apple website there is a page on which it is written in black and white “Even though the power adapter is designed for iPad, you can also charge any model of iPhone or iPod with it...” And they wrote this not at all because they want to quickly sell you a new battery .

Yes, there really is a myth that charging your iPhone with an iPad charger can quickly ruin your phone’s battery. I can assure you that this is absolutely not true! The charger (as we used to call it - charging) that you plug into the outlet is not a charger at all, but a regular DC power adapter. iPhone charging is located inside the iPhone itself and is the same charging controller that we talked about above. It is this module that decides what current to use when charging the iPhone battery.

There is another myth that using an iPad charger can charge your iPhone 2 times faster. Unfortunately, this is not entirely true. Only starting with the sixth generation of iPhone, Apple taught its phones to fast charge from an iPad adapter, and even then not 2 times faster. Previous iPhone models do not have this feature.

Chinese power adapter (Charger)

I don’t even want to consider Chinese chargers. And I DO NOT recommend using them! Why? Yes, because most of them are of dubious quality! Moreover, the characteristics declared by the manufacturer almost always differ from the real ones. You have the right to use them, but when smoke comes out of your iPhone and it stops charging, you will remember what I told you.

A separate article is coming in which we will look at how to distinguish the original power adapter for iPhone from a Chinese counterfeit.

Non-original Lightning cable.

This is the case with lightning cables. As you know, inside the Lightning plug there is a chip that is used for device authentication and a number of other functions. Without this chip (chip), the cable simply will not be accepted by the iPhone itself. Apple cooperates with some manufacturers of accessories for iOS devices and supplies lightning chips only to authorized ones. Products from such manufacturers are usually marked MFI (Made For iPhone).

The Chinese, in turn, managed to make a clone of this chip and successfully use it in cables, which they then sell for 0.98 on the AliExpress website. Although such cables work, they usually do not last long. I have tried many cables and I can say the following - I have nothing against non-original Lightning cables, but I still advise you to purchase them for more or less adequate money. What you get for $0.98 cannot possibly match the quality of the original. I strongly recommend to everyone the excellent lightning cable from Ugreen, which is certified by Apple and, accordingly, is of very high quality and good quality (link to AliExpress).

Car charger.

Car chargers are generally EVIL Well, more precisely, CHEAP CHINESE car chargers significantly increase the chance that you will ruin the iPhone charging/power controller. I advise everyone to familiarize themselves with this problem, which I wrote about in detail in a separate article “Replacing the iPhone power and charging controller” (link). The thing is that the car electrical network is far from being a standard for voltage/current stability, and those cheap car chargers that many people use cannot protect the phone from surges in the car’s electrical network. If you are faced with a problem when your phone stops charging, does not even accept the original charger and cable, takes a very long time to charge or does not charge completely - most likely the problem is a damaged charging controller. And believe me, in 90% of such cases, car chargers are to blame.

If you really spend most of your working day on the road and it is vital for you to charge your iPhone from your car's cigarette lighter, don't skimp on buying a car charger. It’s better to overpay a couple of dollars, but get a obviously high-quality branded item. Personally, I like the products of Ugreen, which I wrote about above. All the products I have purchased from them inspire confidence and really work. Regarding car charging, I can recommend this one (link to AliExpress) ... and it costs quite reasonable money. The simplest one at 5V and 1A (which is just right for charging an iPhone in a car) costs 6.99.

Long-term iPhone storage.

If for some reason you decide to put your iPhone away for long-term storage, be sure to follow the rules below:

Charge your iPhone to about 50%. Storing the device with a fully charged battery may result in the battery losing some of its original capacity. Conversely, if you store the device with a completely discharged battery, it may go into a deep discharge state; Turn off the device; Store the device in a dry place with an ambient temperature of no more than 32C; If your iPhone is going to sit on the shelf for more than six months, charge it to 50% every 6 months.

So how to properly charge your iPhone? As you probably understood from the article, there are no special rules. The iPhone has built-in foolproof protection (also known as a power controller) so that any user does not have to worry about charging the phone. As a personal example, I used an iPhone 4S for four years and charged it chaotically. Most often it was fully charged overnight, but sometimes I had to connect it to the power adapter during the day. And what happened to the battery after 4 years? Yes, nothing happened... She still holds on, plus or minus one day. So don't worry too much about charging your iPhone. Charge it whenever you want and How many want to. The main thing is not to use dubious Chinese chargers.

Good afternoon, the phone is frozen with a blue screen. the color changes to black. streaks may appear. what to do??

I would try to reflash it (restore it in iTunes). But to be honest, it looks like some kind of hardware failure. This can be either the screen or motherboard components. It's hard to say remotely...

Hello, please tell me, I have a new iPhone 6, I’ve been using it for 3 months and lately the phone has been turning off by 3-5 percent. I charge exclusively with the Apple unit. Should I take it to a service center?

Murat, don’t bother yourself so much! It is quite normal for the phone to turn off at 3%.

I have a 4s problem that when I make a call, it doesn’t matter whether it’s outgoing or incoming, the caller can’t hear me for several seconds, this problem was pointed out by a bunch of friends, the sound is blurry.

Is it possible to charge an iPhone 6s using a 5s charger?

Press and hold the device's lock button and the Home button. Hold it until it turns off, then after 5-10 minutes press the Home button. After turning on your device, wait about an hour before you start using it. P.s. To prevent this from happening again (I'm talking about the blue screen), do not overload the phone. This is due to processor overload.

Hello, I broke my iPhone, its screen module was broken, but when it broke, when I was charging it, it made some kind of “sounds”, a month later I’m charging it, but there are no sounds yet, what could this mean.

Good afternoon Yesterday I changed the battery, since the original one was completely dead and practically did not hold a charge. The new battery yesterday turned off the phone by 18% after which the phone did not turn on at all. I went to the service center, they installed a new one and the fault was that the battery was defective. I arrived home with a new battery, by this time the phone had turned off and I put it on charge. It took an hour and a half to charge up to 35%, but by the morning it seemed to still be charged to 100%. By lunchtime the phone dropped by 6% and did not respond to the original charge. I took the Chinese one from a colleague, turned on the phone, inserted it into the original one and a message appeared that the cable was not certified. I went back to the technician, they installed a new battery again, and it seems like now they say the problem is in the board. Now the phone spent 2 hours charging again and only reached 50%. At the same time, it discharges quickly. Tell me, what could it be? The service center just said that repairs in case of a problem with the board would cost about 6 thousand.

Batraz, recently one person wrote in the comments who had similar problems. It turned out that the reason for this was the charging controller (this is a chip on the board). I'm sure this is your problem too. Find a normal service center where they can replace the charging controller. The issue price is usually 4 thousand rubles.

Hello. 4 days ago I bought an iPhone 5S, it had more than half charge, within two days I completely used it up and set it to charge for 2 hours. I didn't touch the phone at all. On many sites it is written that a new iPhone needs to be charged for at least 12 hours.

Question: Will this affect my device in any way?

Sergey, never mind. Charge your phone the way you want, the way you want. The charging controller will do all the work for you.

Hello! My iPhone 5S began to charge from 3 to 100% in more than 24 hours. If left on charge at 100%, the back wall heats up and the charge drops to 80%. Change the controller?

Vladimir, change the charging controller.

Answer Ekaterina's question, please. I have a similar problem.

Please answer Ekaterina. I have the same problem with my phone draining. How long does it take to replace a battery?

Hello, today somehow the phone was completely discharged, it was charged to 100%, at the last moment of use it was 93%, an hour later I turn on the phone, and it is turned off and shows that it needs to be charged. There was also an economy mode, the phone was more than half a year old, is this dangerous? Can it break?

If the phone turns off by 20%, and even more so by 50 or even 90-100%, this indicates that the battery is already dead. It needs to be changed. This behavior indicates that when loading applications, energy consumption increases sharply, and the battery (even though it shows 100% charge) cannot provide the necessary power. Change.

Also read here.

I can’t understand whether it’s charging or not when the iPhone is charging when it’s turned off, the icon doesn’t appear like on my old iPhones there’s a large green battery with a battery and percentage signs? Only when it’s on can you understand that it’s charging in the upper right corner.

I charged my 6s plus in the refrigerator for about a year so as not to overheat the battery. But I mistakenly put it in the freezer overnight. I couldn't turn it on this morning. So what's now?

Try putting your iPhone in the microwave for five minutes. Defrost mode! It should help you.

I also see this for the first time...

The question is, how long will it take for the iPad mini to charge while charging the iPhone? I understand that charging the iPad is twice as powerful, does this mean that it will take twice as long to charge?

Madi, I haven’t tried it, I don’t know. Try it, and then write to us. Good question, by the way. I became interested myself.

I don’t even know, in 30 minutes. 15%, it turns out to get to 100% in about 3.5 hours... Is this normal, until now I didn’t even pay attention to the charging speed? By the way, the cable is not original, does it also affect the speed?

3.5 hours to charge the iPad and not 2A charging is normal.

I forgot to charge my iPhone after purchase. I bought it and have been using it for a week now. What should I do?

Hello! I have this problem. A year ago, my sister bought an iPhone 5s and asked me to install iCloud. I installed and configured everything myself. The phone worked fine for a year and recently began to often ask me to enter my Cloud password. At the same time, a window appears with a message that iCloud is blocked. I found out from my sister that she entered the wrong password several times and perhaps that’s why she was blocked! The phone works fine at times, but sometimes this password request prevents you from logging into programs, appearing endlessly. I tried to log into iCloud, but I couldn’t because the messages weren’t coming to my email and my sister didn’t remember the answers to the security questions. Help me please! Waiting for an answer!

Hello! Can I charge an iPhone 6s with an iPhone 5s charger?

What can happen if 4s is kept at the same time all the time, so it’s time to charge 53 m.

Dima, maybe the power controller is screwed up, or maybe the charging cable.

What could be the problem with the cable?

Dimon, not “what”, but what... This is the second time you’ve written with mistakes! I'll put a two in my diary! The cable may also fail... become bent, frayed, etc. I had this happen. The iPhone was charging up to 60% and stopped... I replaced the cable and everything became normal.

Good afternoon, I bought 7 and didn’t put it on charge, completely discharged it and then put it back in normally?

Can I use the 4s while it's charging?

What else could it be? I changed the battery, it doesn’t charge and overloads every minute, it’s at five percent and doesn’t change and doesn’t change?

When it's overloaded while charging, I forgot to add it.

“I don’t even want to consider Chinese chargers. And I don’t recommend using them! Why?"

But apple is made purely in the USA and their SZUs are not Chinese at all! Yes?

Maxik, by the phrase “Chinese chargers” I mean what is bought on AliExpress. How slow-witted you are... (((

I changed the battery to a naturally hicopy one on my 6s, at some points the phone hesitates, I’m writing - it’s catching up with me, what could be the problem.

Good evening! The question is, if you charge your iPhone with a portable charger, does it also affect the battery life?

It all depends on the quality of the portable charger. If you use cheap, crappy chargers, your apartment may burn down...

Normal power banks (for example mi) work great and do not affect the phone’s battery in any way. But there are also fakes using the same “mi”.

Hello! I would like to consult with you. Is there something wrong with my iPhone 6m?? Everything was fine until warnings began to appear saying there was little memory, although I cleaned everything and deleted almost all applications. With the release of a new update, the memory appeared again and then became clogged very quickly. In general, I had to wait for a new update every time. Then I launched WhatsApp, all the chats were deleted and it was not possible to restore them using the backup copy (it stupidly became empty). Now this happens all the time, almost every day everything is deleted. Applications in the app store do not download. Photos from the camera roll are constantly deleted and restored. The phone turns off by itself. Do you think it's worth doing a reset to factory settings? Thanks in advance for your answer!

More precisely, can this help solve the problem?

Dilya, we must first deal with the warnings about lack of space... Do they relate to the phone memory or the iCloud cloud? You probably have a lot of photos. Transfer them to your computer and then delete them on your phone.

Both here and there it says that it’s not in memory, although I don’t synchronize photos with iCloud. Not many photos.

Dilya, we need to clean it. There are most likely old backups hanging in iCloud that have taken up all the space and need to be deleted. Find out what exactly takes up the lion's share of your phone's memory by going here: Settings - General - Storage and iCloud - Management

Is it harmful to charge your iPhone at 50%? Thank you!

Alexander, no harm. Personally, I use it if I know that I won’t be able to recharge soon, and I’ll have to use the phone a lot.

Hello, what should I do if iPhone activation pops up on the screen and you need to enter the ID password, but I don’t know the password and I also can’t access the email address to which it is linked.

What to do, what to do? Return the phone to the owner, otherwise they will close you down for stealing.

Is it necessary to discharge and charge an iPhone after purchase, and if so, how many hours should it be charged?

Charge fully once and then discharge completely. Then charge up to 100% and continue as your heart desires...

Hello. And I can’t understand whether the phone needs to be charged for 24 hours after purchase. Or do a branch of full charges and discharges... When buying it was 60%, discharged it, now it’s on charge.

Marina, charge the phone to 100%, then use it as usual until it discharges to 0. Then charge the phone again to 100%... After that, charge as you want.

Lately I noticed that the phone sits down at home in a warm place by 5-6 percent, when you put it on charge it comes back (for the last 3 weeks I’ve been constantly charging the phone from a Chinese power bank), what should I do, please help.

Sofia, over what period of time does the phone discharge by 5-6 percent? Chinese chargers are evil!

Hello. I was charging my iPhone 7, but it stopped charging. The cable works, but the charging unit itself does not. A few days later, the same situation with charging from an iPhone 5s, the same 7th was charging. What could be the reason why the charging unit breaks down?

Ivan, are the charging units original or not? Is the voltage in the outlet not fluctuating, by any chance?

Original, never had any problems with voltage.

Hello, the other day I bought an iPhone 6 plus, a new refurbished one, the battery is charging at 77%, I left it all night, yesterday I completely discharged it and put it on charge, the result is the same, closer to 70% it starts charging very slowly, stops at 77%... what is the reason?

I had a similar situation. Changing the charging cable helped. It’s hard to say what’s in your case.

I tried different chargers, my wife has an iPhone 6, the original charger was bought a month ago at MTS. The problem is most likely in the battery, every day it charges 6-7% less, today 68% maximum was charged overnight... Today I took the device for a replacement, a new one will be there on Friday.

Hello! I bought a new iPhone 7. At first I discharged it completely, and recharged it only 20%. Will this affect its operation?

Thank you, a very informative article. I have a question for you, I bought an iPhone 7 in Thailand with their charger, can it be charged by a Russian one from 5s. Thank you in advance with respect Denis!

No problem.

Hello, I bought a new iPhone 7. I set the charge to 12 hours. Is this really necessary or not?

Sorry. Didn't charge for 12 hours!!

Nothing bad will happen. Use and charge your phone at your convenience.

Hello, I've been using my iPhone 5s for about 4 months now, and today a problem arose. I left it to charge overnight, but it didn’t charge. I didn’t change the charger or the cord, everything is intact and original. I charged it to 1% and it says that the accessory is not supported or does not respond at all. In the on mode, the charge does not flow at all. And when turned off, it charges, but the charge drops very quickly, and so 100%, 98.86....15,10,7,5,3 and again 7%. Tell me what can be done or should I contact the service while it is still under warranty?

Oh, I forgot to say, I tried charging with an iPad adapter, and the same thing happened.

Tell me, you wrote that a cable is just a rope for transmitting current, and that there is no need to worry, but you still mentioned Chinese wires without describing them in detail. Explain, thank you.

Hello, is it possible to charge an iPhone 6 with a charger 7? Answer please.

Yes. You can charge it with charger from 7 without any problems. Actually, the charges are the same.

Hello, can you tell me if I can use my phone to save energy?

Good afternoon. I bought an iPhone 7. I charge it with an iPhone 5s charger. Is it possible? Thank you.

I bought 3 chargers for iPhone 7 for 290 rubles and I’m not worried. Charging at home, at work, in the car.

Thank you for the article. There are different opinions about charging smartphones, but I hope the manufacturer has provided protection against fools :)

The controller is a protection against fools, but, as they say, “a fool can break it…” (sorry for my English).

Hello! I bought a new refurbished iPhone 6. It came with a charging unit that was not rectangular flat, but more like a cube. The apple is drawn. Is it possible to safely charge your device without worrying about the life of the battery? Thank you!

Ksenia, I also have a cube (this is an American/Canadian fork). For Europe they make the round pins we are used to. You can charge without problems, the main thing is that it is an original charger, and not a Chinese fake, in which something shakes like a rattle.

The new iPhone 6 takes about 4 hours to fully charge. Tell me, is this normal for a new device? Thank you.

Alexander, it’s certainly a bit much... It should be about 2 hours. Do you have Plus or regular version? If Plus, then everything is possible... the battery is larger.

The new iPhone 6 charges in about 4 hours. Is this how it should be?

I changed the battery for an iPhone 4s, it seems to hold a charge normally, but the battery usage statistics are not shown in the battery settings, the problem is basically not serious, but still. And yet, after the replacement I managed to fully charge the battery maybe 6 times, but in Itools xnj d Battery Life, which I downloaded from the app store, it always shows only one full battery charge cycle, the battery lasts approximately 6 hours with active use, is this normal? But if you use it periodically, it lasts for a day.

Good afternoon iPhone 5s, I've been using it for 1 year without any problems, I decided to charge it in the car (EVIL.), smoke came out of the cable connector in the cell phone, I immediately turned it off, the cell phone worked fine))), when the phone ran out of charge, I put it on charge in a regular socket with new original ones cable and adapter. The phone began to charge for 5-6 hours, it sat down quickly even in airplane mode with energy saving, I turned off all auto-updates, downloads, etc., etc. I changed the battery - no change, the technician said that the power controller was visually OK, everything was clean in the phone, with no signs of burning. Question: should I still replace the controller? I blame him, but here in Almaty, if they change it, then in 90% of cases the phone is over, and 10% are lucky))) The microcircuit is not removed, but torn off by the roots((((Now I’m suffering((((( (

Elvira, a normal master should unsolder the controller chip, and not tear it off. Look for a normal service center. Here is a link to a video where the entire process of replacing the controller is shown in detail.

Thanks, I'll look for it, but in the meantime I'll charge it all night??????

Good afternoon Interesting article, thanks! What can you say about charging an iPhone from a computer? Could this somehow affect the battery?

And one more situation that I often encounter: in the cold or when using a navigator with geolocation turned on, quite often the battery charge drops sharply to 1-3%, I connect the power, the charge is immediately restored. Is this a glitch? Or does the battery change some modes?

Nastya, you can charge it from a computer without any problems.

Regarding the second question. In cold weather, the chemical processes in the battery slow down and therefore the phone may either turn off completely or show a residual charge of 1-3%. You should warm the phone to room temperature - then everything will return to normal. I would not recommend subjecting your phone to frequent “defrosting” (you should not let it become icy).

I charge my iPhone 2-3 times every day to 80%, does this harm the charging?

Thank you very much for telling me, I don’t want to spoil my 6s and thank you again.

Hello, I have an iPhone 6, when I go into applications with the Internet, 100 percent charge can go away in 10-15 minutes and turn off. Sometimes it turns off at 50 percent and shows that it needs a charge. falls in the progression 100-80-50-20-1, and when I put it on charge it instantly shows, for example, 75 percent. What could this be??

Dasha, if your iPhone has had random connections with Chinese chargers or car chargers, then it is very possible that the power/charging controller has failed. This is a chip on a board that needs to be soldered. In principle, this is not as scary as it might seem.

All symptoms point to this exact cause.

Hello, very interesting article. I recently bought an iPhone 5s, I started using it right away, I didn’t discharge it to 0%... I usually charge from 3-2% to 100%. With constant use, it shrinks in 5-6-7 hours... If you don’t use it constantly, it might last a day, maybe even last a little longer... There seem to be no problems. But it’s kind of scary that I’ll do something wrong and the battery will go to hell ... Is it stable to charge from 3-2% to 100% at once, and is it stable that the phone lasts 6-7 hours when used?

Nastya, you use your iPhone quite normally. I also don’t discharge my phone to 0%... and sometimes I don’t always charge it to 100%. Well, 6-7 hours of active phone use is quite normal. My son can drain my iPhone 6S to zero in 2 hours. Then when a full battery charge lasts me 1.5 days.

Hello! I've been scared lately by the jumping charge on the fifth iPhone. I changed the battery a couple of months ago, I didn’t seem to notice anything like that before. in general, it may show 70% for several minutes, and then three percent will be discharged in a couple of minutes when used. Sometimes, when I plug it into the charger, a few percent comes off, then I plug it in and plug it back in - it comes back. In cold weather it seems to discharge a little faster. And so, I wouldn’t say that it gets salty really quickly... should you worry about this and what can you do about it?

Hello. I bought an iPhone 5s secondhand, supposedly brought from America (have an American one). The kit included a charger, Chinese. The phone did not accept it, but the charge went up very slowly. The next day after the purchase, I went to the store and bought an original lighting cord and socket. The phone charged in about 2 hours, but after 100% charge the phone discharges quite quickly, regardless of whether Wi-Fi is on, airplane mode, etc. The charge shows, for example, 91% - I lock the phone, after 10 minutes I unlock it - 88% and significantly tends to 1% on which you can watch the same movie for more than 2 hours, it works without problems, but the charge shows 1%, after It goes out until I connect the charger. Full charge, all business... shows 100% for 5 minutes, if not blocked, and then away we go, 99...9897 with an interval of one and a half minutes. The phone doesn't heat up. When I put the phone to my ear, I noticed a sound coming from inside, like some kind of crackling sound, in the battery area (at the top of the phone, but not in the camera area) when the phone was unlocked, and it was even more audible when the game was turned on. As a result, I installed the Battery Life program, which showed 68% battery wear and I immediately started looking for a new battery. At this moment, the phone was re-calibrated, after which, after 2 hours of charging, the Battary Life program changed its mind about the battery and showed a completely different result - wear by 54%! Could it be that by calibrating the phone 3-5 times I will reach the full capacity of the displayed charge? Perhaps the previous owner of the device quite often poked a Chinese charge into it, and for a short time, to what extent did it all come down? Having re-read all the previous ones, I’m almost sure that this is not a power leak or a battery controller, since the charge lasts for quite a long time at 1%. I haven’t done a full reset of the phone yet and I doubt that it makes sense.

I don't want to return the phone, since it is in very good condition since its activation in 2013.

Has anyone encountered this and can you give me some advice in this situation?

Hello, I just recently (three days ago) bought a 6 plus. At first it charged perfectly, up to one hundred percent, and I went for a walk. A few minutes later I looked at the charge and went nuts (1% was left), I rebooted and it was 98. Well, okay, yesterday I put the phone to charge at night, I put it on and it was 16%, I woke up and it was 19%... What kind of bullshit is this, too much is this bad?

Dasha, if the phone is new from the store, then it’s better to take it back. If you bought it second hand, then anything can happen. Perhaps the power or charging controller has failed... these are microcircuits inside. I can't say that. We need to do a diagnosis.

Max, tell me, and if sooo, sometimes you need to charge your iPhone (7) in the car, which adapter is better to buy.

In this case, the main thing is quality, and quality implies an adequate price. What they sell for 2-3 dollars is complete bullshit. If you buy it, then from a trusted manufacturer. I personally really like the quality of Ugreen products. If you want a charger for your car, I can recommend this (link to AliExpress).

Hello! Please tell me, my phone often turns off outside when charging 30%, when I answer a video call on Viber, or when I want to take a photo, or when I want to make a call! When I come home and put it on charge, it turns on and immediately shows the percentage of charge at which it turned off (30%). Previously, this happened mainly in winter, when I left a warm room and wanted to make a call, the phone simply turned off and showed me on the screen so that I could connect the charger, while it turned off at 20%, 30%, 40% of charge! It’s very scary to be left without communication in a critical situation! But! Now my iPhone 6s turns off even in the warm season! It's summer now, and when I go outside, if I need to make a call or answer a video call via Viber, my phone also turns off and requires charging! I called the hotline, they told me that I either needed to flash the phone or update iOS (I had an old version) and if that didn’t help, go to the service center! Please give your opinion to my problem! Is it true in your opinion that updating iOS can improve the performance of my phone and the spontaneous shutdown of the phone can stop! Thank you in advance!

Irina, I understood your question and this is what comes to my mind.

1. In this case, it would be more correct to talk not about updating iOS, but about restoring the phone to factory settings with installing the latest version of iOS. The instructions are on the website (link). It is quite possible that the phone software has become buggy and is now not working correctly. It’s not a fact that this is your case, but it’s still worth a try.

2. Perhaps the phone battery no longer “can hold a charge”... Why? I don’t know... Perhaps marriage, perhaps exploitation...

3. If your iPhone was charged using cheap Chinese power adapters, then there is a very high probability that the iPhone’s power or charging controller has failed. The site again has a separate article on this subject (link). Be sure to check it out.

What exactly will help in your situation? You need to try in the order described above: Restore via iTunes - Contact the service center.

Hello, is it possible to charge an iPhone 5s with a Sony adapter (original) and an iPhone cord (not original)?

Yesterday I replaced the battery and I think it’s better to buy an original adapter or cable first, or maybe leave everything as is? and is it possible to charge an iPhone using a portable charger (1A)?

Kostya, you can. The main thing is not to buy power adapters that are clearly of Chinese origin.

Is it worth buying an original cable? or leave it as is? and you can also charge from a power bank (if so, where should you insert the usb (1A or 2A)?)

Hello, is it possible to charge an iPhone 6s with the original cable and htc adapter (original)?

Anna, I recently charged my iPhone 6S using a Samsung branded adapter. Everything is fine. So there will be no problems with HTC either. The main thing here is not to use really cheap Chinese chargers.

There is a difference in the cable between iPhone 5 and iPhone 6, thank you.

Alexander, there’s no difference at all... so “why pay more?”...

Thank you, you write intelligently!

For the first time in recent times I read and the face is in place, not crooked :))

Anton, thanks for the feedback... After such comments, my hands again reach for the keyboard.

Hello! Is it possible to charge an iPhone with an adapter from Asus Zenfone 4? Input: 100-240 V 0.25 A 50/60 Hz ; Output: 5.2 V = 1.35A. I got an American plug in the set, but the original adapters are not yet available in our stores (

Hello, is it possible to charge an iPhone 4s with a belkin cable and an adapter from highscreen zera f rev.s to 1A?

There is only one rule - the power adapter must be of normal quality. If there is no other alternative, the brand of the adapter does not matter, the main thing is that it produces a stable voltage. If you are confident in this adapter, feel free to charge it.

After buying the phone I immediately started using it, brought it up to 20% and started doing everything as you wrote.

But on one site it says that you need to keep your phone on charge for 12 hours, is this true?

Nikita, the phone battery takes about 1.5 - 2 hours to charge. After reaching 100% charge, power to the battery simply stops flowing. Therefore, there is NO point in keeping the phone connected to charging at all. Don't worry... Charge it to 100% and use it as before.

You can leave the phone on charge for 3 hours if the charger is Chinese, bought in that store. I was told that this is a high-quality fake and serves as the original.

I wouldn't use this type of charger. It’s better to find not a fake Apple charger, but a high-quality one from another manufacturer. I can’t answer anything about three hours, because... You can burn an iPhone in 5 minutes.

Is it worth buying an original charger if before this three good fakes broke within a period of 2 months?

Ordyn, it’s not necessary once in a while. You will come across another fake that will burn the charging controller. It's better not to take risks. DO NOT USE COUNTERFEITS.

Is it possible to use Belkin chargers, and is it possible to stumble upon a fake from this company?

Hello, in general, the problem is that the iPhone sometimes reboots itself, the apple lights up, then the apple goes out and lights up again only during the time it turns on.

Max, I would try restoring the iPhone to factory settings. If any error pops up during recovery, then most likely there is a problem with the hardware. If not, you should whisper.

I bought an iPhone SE. When it was completely discharged, I put it on charge overnight, and in the morning I saw that only 30% was charged. why not?

Tell me, at what minimum percentage of “life” of the iPhone 7 battery should I charge it? I've heard different versions. Some people say to charge at 40 percent, some advise using it up to 2-4 percent.

Larisa, I wouldn’t worry too much about this. Place it when it is convenient for you. Don't get attached to any number. Sometimes I charge at 4%, and at 70% I charge a little if I know that I won’t be able to get to the outlet for a long time.

Start from the idea of ​​“enough to last until the end of the day.”

Hello. I have a used iPhone 4S. I've been using it for half a year. It holds a charge according to its mAh amount, but turns off by 15-10% (this happens from the very first day of operation) I used different adapters if possible (most often from Huawei), I recently replaced the battery, nothing has changed. What should I do?

Tima, your phone number is probably old? Use it and don't bother. Well, it turns off by 10%, well, it’s good that it’s not by 50%. I will not say that there is anything faulty in it, because... I don't know that. Perhaps the new battery is not as original as the previous one, and the previous one has already exhausted its supply. What's important to you? So that the charge lasts for a day with normal use.

Hello, I have a question. I bought a new iPhone 6s and it takes 4-5 hours to charge... Is this normal?

Evgeniy, it should take about 1.5 hours to charge... Something is wrong.

I called the store, they said 3-5 hours is the norm, over time it will swing and become shorter in time.

Evgeniy, I want to tell you a little secret... “All the salespeople or support managers of such stores... are pizDuNy!” What matters to them? Sell ​​and forget.

Well, think for yourself. The phone takes 5 hours to charge. What is that? Out of the box, my iPhone 6S was fully charged in about 1.5 hours... and after a year of use, it also took 1.5 hours from 10% to 100%. But it's up to you...

Sorry to disappoint, if so... But I never lie to my own face... Unlike sales managers and store support services.

Hello. Tell me, when charging the phone, where is the charge consumed to maintain its life: from the cable (which, it turns out, is forced to divide its energy between charging the battery and the expenses of the smartphone) or from the battery that is charging? It’s clear about 100% charge, but what if the battery is not yet charged? Thank you.

Artem, the entire process is controlled by the charging controller. He himself decides to whom and how much “power” to give. Why are you so interested in this? I wouldn't bother about this.

First of all, thank you for patiently answering user questions :)

I have the 5s model. I've been using it for a year now. “Miracles” with the charge began after updating to iOS 11 - a couple of times it happened that I left the phone to charge at night at, say, 25-30%, but when connected to the charger everything is as usual - it sees everything, does not swear at anything . In the morning you wake up - the charge is around 5%, or even the phone is turned off, completely discharged. During the day it then charges normally. It happened a couple of times, but I don't like the trend. I have already read the comments above and am inclined to believe that these are tricks of the charging controller. But maybe a factory reset could also help?

Julia, thank you for your kind words. I would say that these are quirks of iOS 11. As far as I see the situation, hardware has nothing to do with it in this situation. Unfortunately, Apple has not yet released a stable version of iOS 11. There were a couple of minor updates, but they were more confused about emoji than about bugs.

If I were you, I wouldn’t pay attention to this, unless of course it causes a lot of inconvenience. We are waiting for a more stable version.

Hello! I bought a new iPhone 8 plus, used it for a couple of days in America, the charger held well, and when I arrived home, I had to charge it twice a day. Maybe it’s because I didn’t completely discharge or charge the phone at the very beginning, the first few times? Please tell me. Buying such a phone and having to suffer so much with the battery is terrible. Moreover, I don’t actively use it because I’m at work all day and it sits down by itself. And today and in general before bed it was 40% and in the morning I sat down completely! (((((((

Asya, I don’t think that the abnormal discharge is due to the fact that you did not discharge the phone after purchase. Most likely there is some kind of bug in the firmware. First, update your phone to the latest version of iOS 11.1 (in the first versions of the 11th firmware there was a problem with battery drain, when it discharged 2 times faster than usual). Secondly, think about it, maybe you recently installed some application that can run in the background and eat up your battery? Third, follow the steps in these instructions.

Hello, I recently bought an original Apple battery case for iPhone 7. It works like this: I inserted the phone into it and the phone shows how much charge is left on the iPhone and on the case, first the case discharges (the phone at this time shows that it is charging), and then The phone starts to run out. I have enough charge in the case for a day, in the evening I take the phone out of the case (the phone is 100% charged) and put the case on charge. In the morning I wake up on the phone when it is 100%, when it is 97-98% and I put it back in the case and it starts charging again, it turns out that the phone is almost always on charge. Question: is this harmful or not? Thanks in advance for your answer??????

Vladimir, excellent question... Li-Ion batteries lose their capacity faster if you do not follow the following rules:

1. Avoid deep discharge.

2. Try to constantly partially discharge and then charge the battery.

3. Avoid excessive heating of the battery.

4. Adhere to battery discharge/charge cycles ranging from 20% to 80-85%

Like a living organism, the battery must be given a load. I would advise you to use the case when really necessary. Or alternate every other day. Or insert the phone into the case when the phone's charge drops below 40%.

Hello. I was interested in the fact that the last 20% is slow charging and the current decreases. I immediately wondered. Is it possible to force an iPhone to charge on a slow charge, not only the last 20%? For example, leave it almost discharged overnight and charge it with a reduced current?

This is not a question for me. This needs to be negotiated with the charging controller. I don't think it will work. Unless you charge your phone with a non-original charger and regulate the current yourself.

Hello! Tell me, Is it possible to charge an iPhone 7 without it being painful for it with Samsung (the link to AliExpress has been removed) and car chargers (the link to AliExpress has been removed)?

Judging by the price tag, the quality of these chargers should be decent. In principle, I would trust them... although I have a bias towards all car chargers. But here it’s up to you... I prefer to use Ugreen products. Here's an example of a car charger.

Thank you! And in terms of amperes, if you take it to 2, will it be harmful to the battery?

The iPad charger is also 2 ampere, and even on the Apple website it is written that it is not harmful to the phone. In some cases, it’s even the other way around, for example, the iPhone Plus charges faster with such charging.

Hello! After buying an iPhone 7, I first used it until the charge reached 20%, then charged it to 99% (I had to remove it from the charger), then after a minute I charged it to 100. The next day, in half a day it was discharged by more than half. Even in power saving mode, the charging percentage disappears in minutes. How to fix it?

Victoria, if everything is in order with the phone, then you can charge it as you like and for as long as you like. The main thing is not to use cheap Chinese chargers. If you haven't had an iPhone before, then after Android it may seem like the iPhone doesn't hold a battery at all. Almost any iPhone model discharges during daylight hours. For some it is earlier, for others it is later. It all depends on what you do with it. Mobile Internet consumes a lot of battery.

I also get discharged to 50% in half a day.

Hello. I recently bought an iPhone 7, but my first attempt to charge it was unsuccessful. It doesn’t charge at all ((((doesn’t respond to the charger at all. Maybe I’m charging it somehow wrong?

Daria, this is bad. Return the phone back to the store. 14 days of “peace of mind” have not been canceled.
