Fast charging is bad for your iPhone for one reason: the heat. iPhone batteries generate way too much heat, and heat is bad for battery. Use fast charging wisely, feel free to use it when you’re in a rush, and use the 5W charger when you charge it overnight, because the 5W charger will make your phone stay cool in the whole charging process.

Heat is an indicator the battery is not charging optimally. Unplug, allow enough time to cool, plug it back in.

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.

Nice video! 2 tips (myths?) I've heard somewhere: 1) don't ever let the battery go under 20% before charging it 2) never charge the battery until 100%, stop charging before reaching 100%...expecially this last seems to me not very logic...what do you think?

[@maidsandmuses]

20% is a bit conservative, you can go to down to 5% if you know a charger is nearby soon. The not charging to 100% is correct, no myth. Lithium-polymer batteries age chemically, even if you don't use them. That aging process happens faster when fully charged, so if you regularly keep your phone close to the 100% charge level you will be accelerating the chemical aging of the battery. Personally I keep my phone charged between 15% and 80% or so (no need to be too accurate). Near 3 year old iPhone XS here, still 94% battery health indicated.

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 agree with everything that is discussed here. One point that really was not talked about was holding the max charge at 80%.

80% used to be true. It still is.

And there is still plenty of power left on the battery after the phone tells you it's at 0% and shuts down.

Beginner Apple user here, thank you for this useful information! About the "using phone while charging" thing, the usage here can range from simply operating through os to something more extreme like playing mobile games or using camera, which takes a lot of performance out of phone and could often generate lots of heat, and since charging also generates heat this could be bad for the battery health. I often get warning message from phone system if the phone gets too hot and it automatically close other background apps. So while it's okay to use phone while charging , I guess using it moderately is a good precaution?

@@zureai I think he's talking about using the phone while charging, not on a normal usage. The topic of the video is about how to "correctly" charging the iPhone to preserve its battery longevity. Since charging caused heat, the tip to refrain from using the phone while charging (to stop it from using extra energy that leads to more heat) has been circulating, which PHT tackles in the video: it's fine to use your phone while it's charging. However, I think A Tofu also got a point here, while using the phone as it's charging fine, heavy duty tasks (gaming, filming, etc) might hinder charging progress and push the battery further to perform under significant heat-which as PHT stated is the main thing to avoid if we want to preserve the battery longevity as much as possible. :)

I would like to add that the reason my battery is still on 100% after 7-8 months is not because it hasn’t degraded but because of the way Apple reports this. Batteries vary in their initial capacity so Apple states the minimum that the Battery could be when new. My battery was obviously well over that minimum and so Apple will report it as 100% until it has degraded to lower than that minimum. Still great for resale though.

If you get a new iPhone with exactly 3095 mAh you will probably see it’s health percentage drop off slightly under 100% after a month or so. Most iPhones will come with a larger mAh capacity but Apple doesn’t report this as 120% Battery Health or whatever. They just report it at 100% until it degrades to less than 3095 mAh. My iPhone is still at 100% after 8 months so it probably came with a 4500+ mAh battery and has degraded to 4050 mAh or whatever. I will see its reported percentage degrade once it dips under Apple’s minimum reported 3095 mAh which could be next week or in 6 months time depending on how lucky I was in getting a larger capacity (than advertised battery).

When I travel, I use one of the newer Anker GaN 30w USB C chargers for both my iPhone and iPad Pro with no detrimental effects to either device. I’m sure the Apple 20w charger is therefore safe to use. The key is to not let your charge drop below 70% and just top it up regularly when you can. Fast charging mostly happens when your battery is low, so if you keep your battery at 70% or greater, it’s only in fast charging mode until it gets to 80% and then slows to the regular charging rate.

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.

[@tommasoamati1805]

1:10 Maybe for the newest Iphones this is true, but since you r talking about general iPhones, they don't have it and being charged 100% and still in charge damages the battery really quick. In quarantine I had to do it and the battery in a month went from 89% down to 68%

Here is an advice: unless u intend to go to the jungle, just use your phone and charge it the way u find most convenient, specially if it has an optimised charging function and your schedule isn't confusing(ex. a night shift worker). What I find annoying is the fact that some sales people apperently still believe the costumer should charge their phone for 24h after getting it. Or at least I heard that advice all the way into the 2010s which is for way too long.

[@MirandaLaRuee699]

Oh wow . I’ve never heard that before … the version I’ve always been told is to let your phone charge to 100% (when it’s brand new out the box) It apparently has an affect on how long/good your battery life lasts. Idk if it’s true tho 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@yvs6663]

@@MirandaLaRuee699 it was true of an old battery chemistry but nowadays phones just disconnect themself after reaching 100% so its essentially doing nothing. charging to 100% after a phone has been sitting for a while might not be a bad idea since it helps the phone determine the limits of the battery.

[@royalfinest]

For IPAD, avoid switching off your device too frequently, unless it is necessary. Switching on/off too frequently will stress your battery and degrade their life much faster than devices that remain on / idle / sleep continuously. Switch it off only if you need to keep it away for an extended period of time. Just make sure your battery is always above 15 to 20 percent of charge to avoid stresses coming from low-power measures, which is as stressing as frequent on/off/restart switchings. Hope this helps

[@taxidude]

One you've missed and that I found out the hard way. If you have a leather or plastic case, remove the phone from the case before charging. I woke up a few times to find the charge stopped below 40 percent especially if I'm using the hotspot feature. My guess is that the metal iphone dissipates heat whilst charging but the case prevents that. I'm also convinced that the phone detects overheating and stops charging for safety reasons.

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 :)

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.

[@ProperHonestTech]

True, although I would assume most people who do this are only doing it occasionally, and for short bursts of time, while they wait for their device to charge (versus a laptop for example, which you could have permanently plugged in while using). I agree that it's probably not advisable to constantly use your phone this way.

I agree with you, Omar. My iPhone gets hot, especially if I use it while charging so I only do it if necessary.

Thanks for all the good advice. However, I spend a lot of time in remote areas and need to charge from a 12v system, either in a vehicle or from an inverter in camp. My question is, how important is it to use a "pure sine wave inverter" as opposed to just an inverter.

[@mote8085]

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.

[@thechazz8080]

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

I think with comments like this, it's important to call out the risk associated doing a repair yourself to save (in my opinion) pennies on the dollar in the Grand scheme. I would argue the vast majority of Apple users aren't buying an apple with repairability in mind. Ecosystem, user experience, brand by association, camera - these are all things I can see most apple users prioritizing. Nearly every primary Apple driver user I know irl is not tech savvy or have the interest to do hardware repairs themselves. Another way to look at this is cost VS effort. I can pay about quarter of the cost at the risk messing something else up (primarily breaking the back panel when removed so highly likely that I would need a new back panel anyway, damaging another part during removal by not properly removing all the screws and clips, not properly grounding or turning off device, etc). Plus the time to complete repairs where experienced people may be able to do it in a few mins (I highly argue this assertion anyway because every repair video I see shows most time is spent removing the back panel. Between the time to find a good repair video, wait for new battery (likely if someone is doing a repair themselves, they are going to find a replacement part instead of OEM and all the necessary tools, complete a practice run, and then execute and test...days have already passed but likely at least 6 to 8 hours of research and waiting time cumulatively...before repairs are even started. But, for about 4x the cost (25 VS 100) I don't have to worry about any of that and leverage the warranty users should have anyway for screen replacements and to repair other defects or damage that can occur. And most importantly, doing a replacement yourself means your device is no longer water resistant and that would require additional research and knowledge to make sure that step is completed. Nearly every battery replacement tutorial I watch either doesn't mention this or if they do, they just say "your phone is no longer water resistant...anyway moving on" I say all this as an end user who does like to repair tech devices as a hobby. My general thoughts have always been: if I want to do something myself, I will. But, if there is a risk of making the problem worse, call in a professional

Nice video but I kinda disagree with some because it's not only about the heat while charging, but it's also about the battery cycles of your phone. if you always charge from 0-100 that's a whole cycle in every charge which will reduce dramatically your battery life, so I would recommend for any lithium-ion battery to never be discharged lower than 20% (if possible) and never charged over about 80% (again *if* possible). This will actually make a big difference for the lifespan of your battery.
