Tap “Battery Health” anytime to check your battery’s condition.

Below Low Power Mode, you can tap Battery Health & Charging anytime to confirm your battery says Normal Peak Performance!

💡 Helpful Note: Keeping your iPhone plugged in overnight with Optimized Battery Charging on is completely safe for your battery.
