The iPhone battery has a specific lifespan and needs replacing after a few years. The most common symptoms are slow charging and fast discharging. However, there are other signs indicating that it’s time to replace it, such as:
- The iPhone shuts down suddenly without low battery warning
- It only works when it’s plugged in
- It gets very hot
- The battery is swelling
If none of the above signs appear on your iPhone, the quickest way to discover whether your battery needs replacing is to check it in its own settings. Via the Battery Health option, you can check the capacity measurement. The older your device, the lower the capacity percentage will be.
Some useful tips to extend the lifespan of your iPhone’s battery include using Dark Mode, auto-brightness adjustment, and shutting down apps when you are no longer using them.
If it’s time to replace your battery, you only need to visit your nearest TheFixers store for immediate, same-day replacement at the lowest price on the market.
