Hello guys,

I've updated to 14.5 on day 1 to be able to unlock the iPhone with my watch and then updated again on day 1 to 14.5.1 and again to 14.6.
It's been 36 days since I've updated to 14.5 and when the battery calibration started... and it's still ongoing.
Can you please tell me what exactly a "few weeks" mean in Apple terms? 4-6-8-12-24?

Thank you !

Mine took longer than that. Depends on how much you use and charge it. It needs to see a few complete charge cycles.

Mine just finished.

I charged my phone sense it started maybe 8 to 15 times sense.

Yeah, that might explain it... I am not usually the kind of guy that plugs it in at 10% up to 100%... I am more the guy that plugs it in at 25-35% up to 80-90%... I don't do deep cycle. I only charge to 100% when I know I have a long day and I need all the available capacity. I would not care so much for battery health and preserving it if in my country/city I would have an outstanding Apple care that most of your have.

Later edit : the calibration took 41 days in my case.
