Things You’ll Need:
- IPhone manufacturer warranty sheet
- IPhone
Step1
Regularly ttach your iPhone to your computer to get performance-related updates. Apple will use iTunes to download phone upgrades, including energy management tools to help you get the most out of your phone.
Step2
Increase battery performance by exposing it only to moderate room temperatures to avoid the need for a replacement. Extreme heat or cold will cause your iPhone to shut down as well as strain the power capacity of a battery.
Step3
Remove your iPhone from its charger as soon as your battery indicator is completely full. iPhone users who leave the device connected around the clock will diminish long-term capacity due to excessive power.
Step4
Stop videos, podcasts and musical files as soon as they are complete. The iPhone is similar to a laptop in the disproportionate draining of batteries due to larger files. You can save battery capacity over the long term through responsible file management.
Step5
Bring your manufacturer warranty information for your iPhone to the Apple store. Apple provides a 1-year warranty for replacement batteries that fall below 50 percent of its original capacity. You can purchase a 2-year warranty to replace your battery for a small additional fee.
Step6
Budget additional money for battery replacements after your manufacturer warranty expires. Every Apple store is equipped to replace your lithium iPhone battery for a fee.
