    iPhone Will Apple replace my battery even though I’m jailbroken?

    I have a jailbroken 6s on 11.3.1. My battery has been horrible for a while now. When I go into Battery Health in Settings it says my max capacity is 80%. I also installed BatteryLife from Cydia and it’s says my capacity is at 67%? I’m guessing I definitely need to get my battery swapped out? My...

    iPad Battery Use and Video

    Running iOS 12 on an IPP 12.9 G2 LTE. Since updating to iOS 12, basic battery usage seems to be unchanged except for video use. I have noticed whether it is YouTube, Spectrum TV, Netflix, or Amazon, (my major viewing items), this device burns through battery at a higher pace than pre-iOS 12. I...

    iPhone XS Max iPhone XS XS Max battery life

    Apple always claims better battery life for new phones. How's your battery life in the real world? XS Max that I have here has worse battery life than 8 Plus.

    Early 2015 MacBook 12 Retina battery already needs servicing?

    I'm not sure why the battery needs servicing after about 1 yr of use. I take good care of my stuff and yet have never had any battery issues. Not even on my iPhone or iPad. But for this to happen so early on a laptop leaves me confused as to why this happens? What would cause this? I'm extremely...
