One of the main indicators of the condition (not only) of the iPhone is definitely the so-called battery condition. This is a figure that indicates how many percent of the maximum original capacity the battery can currently charge. It is true that 1% of the battery condition should decrease after about 25 charge cycles, with the understanding that if the battery condition is below 80%, then it is already considered unsatisfactory and should be replaced. You can easily find out your battery condition on your iPhone in Settings → Battery → Battery health. You can't really increase the condition of the battery, but you can ensure its maximum extension by using the 5 tips that you will find in this article.

Optimal temperature zone

If you want to maximize your iPhone's battery life, the first essential is to use it in optimal temperature zone. This is specifically for the iPhone, iPad, iPod and Apple Watch v range from 0 to 35 °C. Even outside this temperature zone, the device will definitely work for you, but various problems may appear, along with a faster decline in battery condition. So avoid charging your iPhone in direct sunlight and under heavy load (like playing games), and if you charge your phone overnight in bed, don't put it under any circumstances under the pillow. At the same time, you shouldn't use thick covers to keep the iPhone cool, especially when charging.

Certified accessories

The second important aspect that must be met to maximize battery health is use of certified accessories with MFi certification (Made for iPhone). Yes, original accessories are of course expensive, so it tempts many users to buy charging cables and adapters from unverified sources. However, it is necessary to mention that other manufacturers also have MFi certification, such as AlzaPower and many others. All these accessories with MFi work just like the original ones from Apple. The use of charging cables and adapters without certification can lead not only to excessive heating and reduced battery condition, but in some cases even to fire.

Optimized battery charging

If you want to maximize the health of your iPhone's battery, you should try to keep it between 20 and 80% charged as much as possible. Of course, your iPhone will work without any problems even outside this range, but if you operate it here for a long time, there may be an accelerated decrease in the condition of the battery. The fact that the iPhone does not discharge below 20% cannot be influenced in any way and the user must monitor it himself, however, to limit charging to 80%, the Optimized charging function can be used. In particular, it can, under certain conditions, during regular charging at the same time, most often overnight, stop charging at 80% and recharge the remaining 20% ​​automatically before you disconnect the Apple phone from the charger. This function can be activated in Settings → Battery → Battery health, where below turn on Optimized charging.

Auto brightness

By default, the iPhone's auto-brightness feature is enabled. However, some users do not like this function for some reason and decide to turn it off and start controlling the brightness manually. For most of these users, it looks like they have their screen brightness set to maximum all day. This, of course, subsequently leads to heating and faster discharge of the battery, which results in a faster decrease in battery condition. So, if you want to avoid this and maximize the condition of the battery, definitely reactivate the automatic brightness. Just go to Settings → Accessibility → Display and text size, where below turn on Auto brightness.

Long-term storage

Do you have an older iPhone that you no longer use and store it in a drawer, for example? If you answered yes, then you should know some basic information about how you should store such an apple phone. It is primarily necessary to mention that even during storage it is necessary observe the optimal temperature zone, which in this case is -20 to 45 °C. Outside of this range, you risk damaging the iPhone's battery. At the same time, you would have an apple phone at least charge here and there, to about 50%. If the battery has been dead for several months or even years, there is a high probability that you will not be able to revive it. So, once in a while, remember that iPhone that you put aside and "prick" it into the charger.
