Has anybody realize....? Battery issue in ios 8

[manizzer]

And what?

 

[deeddawg]

when you reach 61% percent battery, it drops directly to 59%? ... No 60%...

It is a big issue.

You're kidding, right?

TH55, did you create another account? 😀

 

[Apple fanboy]

Interesting. Thought I'd check it out. Guess what I'm already on 56%. By the time 60% comes round again I'll have forgotten about this thread.

Please don't report to , they ve far bigger fish to fry. Be happy your phone is charging#

 

[ihatephish]

heh, remembered this thread from earlier and my 6+ did skip 60%. No big deal though.

I don't know how you non percentage users do it. I'll go crazy if my percentage meter is off.

 

[The Doctor11]

I just checked. My phone was at 61% so I was like "My chance to see for myself!!!" I turned up the brightness turned on the flash light and opened google earth. Then I watched and wait...

DUN DUN DUN

There is no such thing as 60% anymore. 😱

Now OP... If we don't get all OCD about battery percentage we'll never notice there is not 60%.

 

[thingstoponder]

Yes, because that is the only thing they have to work on.🙄

Because he totally implied that. 🙄

I would turn it off if it came out automatically when my battery is low. When I get under 5 percent I need to know so I can adjust my usage until I can recharge.

 

[Tobias Funke]

Total coincidence im on 61% now!!

Will report back in a min!

----------

It seemed to stay on 61% for ages but it did drop straight to 59%!

How strange!

 

[Honey Badger]

not sure if cereal. 🙄

lol, seriously?

 

[ApplePhy]

Has anybody realize that when you reach 61% percent battery, it drops directly to 59%? It happnes in my 6+ and my air 2. No 60%...
Same when you charge it. From 59 to 61...

A lot of users in other forums are in the same issue.

This is why I love MR Forums.

A sanctuary where we feed our insatiable appetite for ALL this Apple 😎

 

[Appl3FTW]

lol, seriously?

as a heart attack.. haha.

 

[Tobias Funke]

Mine skipped over 60% this afternoon!!

It's mad!!

 

[Kaylor]

Real talk.. why did you even notice this to begin with?

 

[Honey Badger]

as a heart attack.. haha.

Not a crumb of cereal involved. 😉

This happened to me today I was reading twitter and noticed my battery jumped from 61 to 59 in a second. Was thinking about doing a restore but after reading everyone who has the same problem it's probably just an iOS8 bug.

 

[XmeX]

With IOS 8 everything probable!

 

[iolinux333]

TC fired the counting backwards from 100 chick due to personality conflicts. Now Apple can't afford to hire another because Beats.

lol, seriously?

Dear God don't tell Apple about this if they try to fix it the clock will stop working

Turning off the battery percentage indicator is the single best thing you can do when it comes to battery.

Turning off the battery percentage indicator is the single best thing you can do when it comes to battery.

Not really. It's quite useful in many situations especially when you are under 20% or 10%, or to faster catch something potentially running the background or something else similar happening that is using up the battery that much faster than normal. One of the best things is to not pay attention to any little change in it, but simply turning it off doesn't do much in itself.

 

[sunking101]

Could it be that Apple changed the way battery percentage is shown/calculated in the code?

When I'm charging my iPhone 5, I've noticed that it updates the battery percentage a second after the screen has been turned on. This never happened before iOS8.

Or maybe it's Apple's planned obsolescence that's killing my iPhone 5...

Wrong. It happens on iOS7 too.

Noticing a 2% drop instead of a 1% is a little OCD, don't you think ?
