2 Replace Your Battery

Your iPhone battery is limited to a certain number of charge cycles. Over time, a poor battery can slow down your iPhone. Plus, if you are guilty of some common battery busters, then your device may likely need a replacement battery.

Apple provides two battery monitoring options to help you understand whether or not you need to replace your battery.

You can check the condition of your battery (currently in beta) by visiting:

1. Settings
2. Battery
3. Battery Health
4. One here, you can view your battery’s maximum capacity. Within Battery, you can also view the apps that consume most of your battery power (represented in a percentage) over the past 24 hours or a 7 day cycle.
5. If you need a new battery, Apple offers a battery replacement program for $29.

Tip: Tap an app under Battery Usage to see how much time the app ran on screen and/or in the background.
