Last Updated On June 20, 2020 by GeeksModo Staff

Is your iphone battery draining fast all of a sudden? No problem. In this article, i’ll give you reasons why iPhone battery dies quickly and offer you possible solutions to fix the issue.
There is this constant issue with iPhones battery life users always have to grapple with even after purchasing the flagship iOS device. This is because after a while, your iPhones battery life starts to drop rapidly and it’ll struggle to make it through a day (on a full day).

Your current iPhone might still offer you great battery life, but as you continue to use, you will notice a gradual decline in battery life. Also, Apple does not make the whole thing easy since it does not provide users an easy access to their

This makes replacing these batteries when their life spans drop, a daunting task.

Reasons why iPhone battery dies quickly

Here are the reasons why iPhone battery dies fast and what you can do to fix the issue.

1. Constantly Recharging Your iPhone Battery

According to
Battery University, lithium battery starts to degrade after undergoing between 300 and 500 discharge/charge cycles. A charge cycle is a charge of a battery from 0% to 100%. Therefore, for instance, charging your iPhone from 50% to 100% twice will translate to a complete charge cycle.

To prevent your iPhone battery from degrading faster, you should minimize charge cycles of your device.

2. Too Many Applications Running on the background

I understand that iPhones are preferred for their multitasking capabilities and this is one of the reasons why most people chose to use iPhones in the first place. While this is great, running multiple apps simultaneously can immensely reduce your iPhones battery life. Always remember to quit all apps which you are not using to save its battery.

There are a couple of indicators you get when your battery is under heavy usage. The common one, however, is your iPhone getting extremely hot. Another solution to stop battery drainage is to quit apps running in the background.

3. Using unauthorized Charges

Another reason why iPhone battery dies fast is due to use of unauthorized chargers. It’s a bad idea to use charges that aren’t made by Apple. It’s understandable that these chargers are quite cheap, however, you should note that original iPhones chargers are designed to act as adaptors, to convert direct circuit (DC) power to a level the iPhone requires to charge healthily. Anything above the required current and voltage can damage your iphones’ battery thereby reducing its life span.

4. Screen Brightness Level is Always Very High

Another major reason why iPhone battery dies quickly is high brightness. iPhones screen is one component that probably drains the most power. Keeping your screen brightness to the maximum at all times also reduces your iPhones battery life. Always lower the screen brightness of your iPhone when it is not necessary to have it very bright.
