If you’ve got an iPhone<\/span>\u00a0that is slow to charge, has trouble maintaining a charge throughout the day or is unexpectedly shutting down, you might need to get your iPhone battery replaced.<\/p>\n

And you probably want to do it sooner than later. Apple recently announced that starting March 1, you’ll have to pay $20 more to replace your battery through Apple’s existing services<\/span> (except for the iPhone 14 models<\/span>, since that price is staying the same).<\/p>\n

So how do you find out if you really do need to replace your battery? We’ll show you how to check out your battery’s health via your iPhone settings, as well as what you can do to prolong your battery’s lifespan.<\/p>\n

How to check on your iPhone battery’s health<\/h2>\n

Your iPhone battery becomes less effective over time, but you could also have a faulty battery on a brand-new iPhone. To quickly check if there’s an issue with your battery health<\/a>, go to Settings<\/strong> Battery<\/strong> Battery Health Charging<\/strong>. If you’re running anything below iOS 16.1, the latter will appear as just Battery Health<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At the top, you’ll see the maximum capacity of your battery, which should be 100%, or close to it, if you have a relatively new iPhone.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, what you want to look at is\u00a0Peak Performance Capability <\/strong>and the sentence underneath that. If you see\u00a0Your battery is currently supporting normal peak<\/strong> performance<\/strong>, you don’t have any recognized battery issues and you shouldn’t need a replacement.<\/p>\n
