IPHONE users have uncovered a clever trick to instantly boost their battery.
The feature is intended to substantially improve the overall health of your iPhone battery so you can avoid costly upgrades.
All lithium ion batteries – including the ones inside iPhones – degrade over time.
They chemically age for many reasons: The way you charge your iPhone and even its temperature can make a battery degrade faster.
This means, overtime, they struggle to hold as much charge compared to when they were new, ultimately requiring you to plug in more often.
Apple has a tool designed to protect your battery and keep it “healthy” for longer.
It’s known as the “80% Limit” and it’s there to keep your iPhone battery healthier for longer.
When a battery is fully charged, it is put under stress – and that’s not good.
With this feature switched on, your iPhone won’t go above 80% charge (except in specific circumstances).
You can find it with three taps by going to Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging.
