    iPhone Battery Optimization Everyother Night

    I know this feature has been asked about a bunch here but I haven't seen this specifically asked or referred to. Out of curiosity, has anyone gotten this feature working that doesn't charge it nightly? I charge my phone every other night (and this isn't a complaint because 2 days out of the...

    Rare damage without compensation

    I own a MacBook Air that I have owned for about 5 years now. It's a 2011 that I purchased refurbished. I bought it in 2014. In 2015 it was 3 years old. One year later after purchase, I woke up one morning and found the screen floating above the keyboard. The keyboard was warped and the computer...

    iPhone Optimized Battery Charging - Not Working? [Merged]

    I’ve had it turned on since iOS 13 came out almost two weeks ago and this feature hasn’t worked at all. How can it possibly take this long for the phone to learn charging habits?

    iPhone 8/Plus Iphone 8 Plus battery performance on IOS 13

    After watching this video: I find it unbelievable that the Iphone 8 Plus (with a higher battery health percentage) now performs worse than the Iphone X. When the Iphone 8 Plus first launched along with the X a lot of sites claimed that the Iphone 8 Plus had a better battery life than the...

    2011 MBP won't start or wake up

    I have a 2011 MBP that I can't get to "turn on". I had it open and running normally about a week ago. Since then, it's been on my desk with lid closed (presumably hibernating). I opened it yesterday to use it and cannot get it to wake up. Pressing the battery indicator button on the left side...

    Weird battery cycle count

    A few days ago I received a new battery from iFixit for my Mid-2013 11" MBA. After I installed it, I've done the calibration procedure and did a SMC-reset. Unfortunately...without plugging the MacBook to a energy source. Stupid. From this moment on, my MacBook Air keeps forgetting it's own...

    iPad 9,7" 2018 battery drain with iPadOS 13

    Anyone else experiencing battery draining or at least battery lasting sensibly less in comparison to iOS 12 on their iPad? Some minutes ago I checked notifications on my iPad, spending 10 minutes, and the battery status passed from 30% to 23%. Prior to the update I can remember it lasting even 3...

    iPhone SE (2016) To iPhone SE users. Was 12.4.1 better in terms of battery compared to 13? If so. How many minutes /hours extra did you get?

    See title. I came from iOS 10.3.3 and 13 drains my battery really fast. So I might downgrade to 12.4.1. Also, another question. How does one reset the screen-on time and screen-off time numbers? Do I have to charge it to 100% for the numbers to become 0?

    Should i buy a new macbook pro charger?

    Hi all, My macbook pro 13” retina (early 2015), had a battery failure recently. Took it to an authorized service provider, and they’ve suggested a new battery which i’ve accepted. The battery had around 300 cycles. What keeps poking me now, is the fact that my charger was shorted about 2...

    AirPods Battery: Remaining percent reported incorrectly?

    I am sure many MacRumors forum members understand that lithium ion batteries degrade over time. Those of us with AirPods I feel are acutely aware of this. And then there is of course the issue of one AirPod draining significantly faster than the other. I was under the impression that I have been...
