turn on low battery notification

My daughter gave me her old iPhone 6. My old phone 6 is also an iPhone 6 and always had a reminder pop up when my battery got down to 20%. When we transferred all of my info from my old iPhone to her old iPhone, I no longer get that notification and I want to know how to turn it back on. I find it very helpful because otherwise the phone just shuts down with no warning when the battery gets too low. The only info I’ve been able to find on Apple’s support is how to turn that notification off, not how to turn it back on. Please help!

iPhone 6, 12

As those are not notifications you can turn off, I agree it's odd that you're not getting them. Do you know if she ever had the battery replaced?


I'd suggest you try backing up the phone and restoring it from the back up.

The only thing that does is turn on low power mode. I’m not asking how To do that. I am asking about the notification that always came up on my old iPhone 6 and it would give me the option of plugging in my charger or turning on low power mode. It was an actual notification that would come up as soon as the phone was down to 20% battery. I don’t want to turn on low power mode because that limits some things that I can do. but if I get that notification, I plug in the charger. I appreciate you trying though.
