Use genuine Apple chargers

While cheaper, unofficial chargers can be tempting, it is important to always use an Apple-approved charger. These ensure a safe and proper charging process, which will help the life of your battery.

Enable ‘Optimize charging’

iPhones have a handy feature called “Optimize Charging. Enable it through Settings > Battery > Battery Condition. This feature keeps your iPhone from continuously charging at 100%, which can extend battery life.

Monitor the battery condition

iPhones offer a handy overview of battery condition. You can find this under Settings > Battery > Battery Condition. Keep an eye on this and consider having the battery replaced if the maximum capacity is significantly reduced.

Reduce background activity

Apps on your iPhone may remain active in the background, consuming unnecessary energy. Go to Settings > General > Refresh on background and disable this feature for apps you don’t need.

Take advantage of power saving mode

iPhones have a power saving mode that automatically activates when the battery falls below 20%. You can also enable this mode manually through Settings > Battery.
