I know several have posted on here about the case early on in the launch. Has anyone noticed battery life dwindle on their 11PM since using the case over a month or longer? I like the case but I fear it will destroy my phone battery.

My questions
Is the battery case meant to be used as full time everyday case?

My battery case keeps my phone at 100% all the time when it still has life, which can't be good for the iPhone battery long term right?

Does it hurt the battery?

Why would Apple not make the Battery Case stop charging the phone once the phone reached 100?

Why not make the battery case kick on to charge one the iPhone hits say 50% battery?

Am I missing a setting someone where this happens?

Any help to these questions is appreciated.

I've had my battery case since close to when I got the PM on the day after launch and am still 99%. I agree I think it should be that from 100case/100phone it should drain the phone to 80 and then use the case and then use the phone again. And then the other way charge the phone to 80 and then the case and then the rest of the phone. Would even like a setting that you can stop the phone charging at 80.
