How do you set brightness to a specific percentage? All I can do is slide it up and down in control centre and guess the %.
Ask Siri to do it for you. 😁 hope she doesn’t tell you wait while she looks on the internet for you. 🤦♂️😂
Siri is on board the phones with iOS 15. Siri responses are pretty quick now.
You noticing slightly less usage for the first 10% battery?
Use to hit 2 hours easily, now it’s a little bit under that. 🤔🤔🤔
I’m on one hr screen time now and it’s 96%. I would say I can hit 2 hr today before going below 90%.
Yes, after a recharge the percentage is basically the same, now wait a little, an hour or so, and check again. Or check again when you lose 1%, in that moment there should be the maximum gap. I charged to 86% a couple hours ago, now at 84%, Coconut says 79,6% now. Yesterday when I was lower on battery it was at a 1% difference, so it's dynamic (in my case at least)
Edit: just dropped to 83%. Like clockwork, it never goes over 5% difference. Probably if I’d reboot now I could consume some charge and get a 6% gap afterwards, for example. Hard to get more

If you are finding the screen too dim when it gets darker, recalibrate at a higher brightness level. I redid my calibration setting the reference to 10% brightness.
For anyone interested I created a "Show Brightness" shortcut then will show the current brightness percent level. This is what I have been using to display the current brightness level.
Calculate Device Details.Current Brightness * 100
Format Number Calculation Result to 0 decimal places
Show Result Formatted Number %

Never used the shortcuts but I do not understand how to program the text above it seems to have fixed actions,script and such but no commands like this Not a big deal but would be fun to try it.
I wanted to ask about the battery of the iPhone 13 Pro. Apple promises about 8 hours of autonomy in the Pro versions, we all agree that if we deactivate data, bluetooth and use only wifi and play videos, we use whatsapp and social networks those 8 hours can be comply, but in my daily use, with half an hour of face time, calls, social networks, whatsapp, clash royale and some other application does not reach me more than 6 hours and a half or even 7 hours if I rush it. Is my battery bad or is it normal with the applications and use that I give it? It is true that in video and multimedia playback it consumes much less, but with a little facetime and the odd game, autonomy is greatly reduced ...
I will give you more information. The last charge I did yesterday at 8 in the morning (100%), a day and a half later (today at this time) I have a 41% battery and about 4 hours of screen on. I estimate that at most, after spending so long without charging it, I get 6 hours of screen on after 48 hours without charging it. The difference with the iPhone X that I had before is huge but the 8 hours that Apple promises are a bit of a cheat ...
Mine is the same, possibly even worse. Yesterday I used the photo app for half an hour and chewed up 15% of battery. Probably Apple expects people to consume much more video than productivity or social apps where you scroll a lot and use a lot the full 120Hz of the screen and the CPU power. I'm not impressed with the 13 Pro battery life, but it's still better than my old phone and enough for my use. Who need more should definitely get the Max

Every since I got my iPhone 13 Pro Max launch date delivery. I have not shut off or restarted my iPhone. I’m getting the urge to do it but I’m scared. Should I take the chance or what? I’m scared 😱
It’s all your fault @LFC2020 😩
It’s all your fault @LFC2020 😩
I have done a few times and so far no battery weirdness with my 13 ProMax
With what version of iOS? Before did the battery go down with the restart?
You have to considerate that your phone was in standby mode for a while so the usage time will decrease. Personally, just yesterday from 100% to 70% I had 3h10m of screen on time with 85% of screen brightness. Its insanely good and way over the 8 hours mark. If you use your pro max a lot from a full charge throughout the current day, you'll easily hit the 8 hours mark.
My 13 Pro Max running 15.0.1 has been fine, despite a few soft reboots and a hard one. I haven't noticed any unusual battery behaviour.
My fault? 😂 thanks to me, you don’t have to restore your phone. 🕺🏼😂
I wouldn‘t, I had to restore my phone when I restarted it 🤦♂️ your call though. 😁
I restarted my phone yesterday. HA. Guess what???? It's working just fine~ 😁
