I wanted to tell her how this has been debunked by you and others, but I just left comments in the after call email that asked me to rate the agent. Funny how some myths just never die. Thanks so much for your videos! Great stuff!

Your explanation was so simple and I can’t believe how much time I’ve wasted swiping up for nothing, especially when I struggle to swipe up to shut down for some strange reason. So many other great explanations too. Thank you so much. I’ve just left Android but still not sure if I made the correct choice. There’s no paste folder with several paste memories. I have to stretch to top left corner to go back, or other variations depending on the app, unlike a simple task bar along the bottom with back, close etc on android. And a keyboard where you have to tap left or space bar to go to numbers and most used symbols unlike Android all on the same default keyboard. Their are other things too but I just need to get used to it. Thanks again.

  • if you use a Chargie device for your overnight charging sessions, it will stop charging at whatever % you like and will limit heat-induced damage to your battery by not letting it charge at full speed. Chargie also features a delayed charging function that you can use so that the phone does not stay at high states of charge for long - it tops just before you wake up.

  • The technique of charging your device when it’s switched off, makes a huge difference in my experience. I have a very well used iPad c 6 years old & when I charge it while switched on, it barely holds the charge…let alone boosts it, but when I turn it off before charging, it charges quite quickly….albeit runs down again quickly, if I don’t keep it powered. I have a fairly new iPhone, so based on this video, I plan to get into the habit of turning that off too….at an appropriate time of day when I’m not expecting calls. Thanks again for a helpful video :- )

  • Thank you for this video, very useful and informative as all of your videos seem to be. One question I have is around wireless charging. Given a battery’s sensitivity to heat buildup why is it a good idea to charge your phone wirelessly as opposed to using a wire? I once charged my phone in my brother in law’s Tesla and when he handed it to me after spending some time on the charging pad it was ridiculously hot! I concluded at the time that this didn’t seem to me to be the best way to get a charge in the battery. I understand the desire for less clutter from wires but at what cost?

    • If Apple is smart enough to cram so much into a pocket sized phone, it is certainly smart enough to hear all the complaints about phone performance over the years and fix their phones. Thus, the old “urban myths” disappear, and the phones can be used however you want without worrying, just as this video says. Now, If Apple could fix the never ending problem of commenters using facebook style abbreviations, or worse, making up new abbreviations. People, STOP IT, Stop being lazy and spell out your words if you want us to understand what you’re saying. Now, get off of my lawn!

  • I agree with everything you said except for the part that you can leave your phone overnight ie. Charging to 100%. I understand that most consumers will replace their device every 2 years, so the extra life cycles don't really matter. But charging your phone to, let's say 85-90% instead of 100%, can increase your discharge cycle from 300-500 to 600-1000, essentially doubling the lifespan of your battery. If you want more discharge cycles, avoid fully charging/discharging your device.

  • First of all, good thing you're making a video about this. Secondly, I wanna go over some things you mentioned. So, these things don't only apply to iphones they apply to all smartphones but also many tech products like laptops, etc. The charging overnight is definitely bad if the device does not have optimized charging. The reason why is because it will reach 100% stop charging fall to 99% and charge up again to 100% and back and forth. That isn't good for the battery. Next while yes, the batteries are getting better at being customized to our needs is generally better not to let it discharge completely. While it doesn't have major effects on the short term it does affect long term battery life. Extensive full depletion is harmful and is the reason why most phones left aside for long periods while completely discharged have deteriorated bettery life when picked up again.

  • Very good and valuable. I have one small comment. More apps generally increase cpu utilization which may shorten battery life. But I hasten to add that the degree of utilization is highly dependent upon the particular app(s) involved. Many apps lie dormant when not in use, or only periodically consume cycles when the "wake up" such as time or event driven architecture. A nice to have would be to show average utilization for both processor and disk resources, but I guess many people would not benefit if they are not very familiar with what they mean.

  • I agree with everything that is discussed here. One point that really was not talked about was holding the max charge at 80%. I’ve heard from others that lithium ion batteries prefer to be kept below 80% to increase life. My new EV car even says it’s best to keep the charge level below 80% to maximize battery life.

    • 80% used to be true. It still is. But a modern device already handles it by reporting 100% and stopping charging - when the battery in fact is only at 80-85 % The user interface lies to keep it simpler for us. And there is still plenty of power left on the battery after the phone tells you it's at 0% and shuts down.

Phone manufacturers are not investing millions in battery tech to cram as big a battery as possible in your phone just to cut it by 20%. 1 or 2% maybe, but never 15-20%.

  • Yup started to change up my charging habits, Was really scared of using my fast charger cause my phone would warm up But then I would notice right around 60 or 70 percent it would just cool off to normal. By iPhone 13pro health is at 99 which isn’t as great as yours and i feel like that might be because I use it as my maps when I drive and the heat from that sort of kills it (I learned to just turn off the screen while driving when I know which street to take, as well as have it near the ac vent so it keeps the phone cool) Also, that low power mode is no joke, a week ago we had electrical maintenance for a day. I used it after charging my phone to 90 and keep it alive for the rest of the day, the next day I still had over 80 percent battery, really helpful feature

    • The output of your phone charger outputs a DC voltage. And it either puts out the right voltage or nothing at all. So as long as your phone starts charging it will be fine for your battery. The only thing that could be suffering is the charger itself.

  • In regards of the apps in the background not using up more energy, this might not be true with all of them. I had a new iPad and it suddenly started overheating, as well as losing battery, even when I wasn’t using it. I didn’t understand what was going on (and neither did the Apple tech guy). Took me a while but I discovered it was Apple Arcade, I got a free subscription and was trying it out, leaving it “on” when I wasn’t using it… Once I quit it after using, no more overheating :)

  • I think that "myth" of running the battery down to almost zero before charging was started by me! However that was in the days of NiCad batteries which actually did develop a memory. If, for example, you consistently charged it at 50%, it would get to the point where it wouldn't perform below that 50%. This wasn't just for phones but any cordless tool. Thanks for a great video, I will be sharing it with others.

However is you want to keep at its best I’d try to keep it between 50-80%. That way the battery’s don’t have much stress from lower voltage. Still tho if you do a good job on keeping your iPhone between 80-20% your battery should last a lot longer!

  • I like the video, the way it's presented. Good job! One thing though with "charging while using the phone", you can't exclude the heat element in this equation. You're using the phone, there's a good chance it would run hot + the heat generated by the charging process itself, and like you said heat is the number one enemy for the battery. So I imagine on the long run, not good.
