iOS 18 Introduces More Charging Limit Options on iPhone 15 Models: 85%, 90%, and 95%

[ric22]

I know some people will think “whats the point“ but I really like Apple’s push to introduce limited charging options. I charge my 15 Pro Max to 80% every night as I don’t need the full capacity, and after 9 months my battery health is going strong at 98%. Hopefully this comes to the watch very soon

After 9 months I'm still somehow at 100% on my Pro Max. The battery life is so good that I stopped needing to charge at night. Either I'll plug it in during the day if the battery is low, or otherwise it stays topped up with wireless charging at my desk or in the car.

I turn off the 80% limit for weekends away, or if I know I'll be out all day with no charger access. It's great not to have to carry a power bank at all any more! With my old iPhones I always had to bring one for a full day trip.

Will this feature come to MacOS and iPadOS too?? If not, why the hell not?!?

It's programmatically VERY hard to implement. But hey, we'll have tons of new emojis instead!

/s (regarding how "complicated" it is to implement too - it, in practica, may be comparatively easy. For some strange reason, Apple doesn't consider it necessary to implement it, though... prolly in the future M4 Macs only?)

My battery replacement is covered under AppleCare+. I charge to 100%.

Need this on older devices, its blatantly obvious they want us all to upgrade. My Apple Care replacement iPhone 13 Pro is still at 98% capacity. I may skip iPhone 16 and wait for 17.
