Plug in the charger and cable. Connect it to a wall outlet or computer. ;)


Ideally charge it overnight, every night.


Ensure that you have optimize charging on Settings > Battery > Battery Health


Use your phone as you normally would.

Can one charge iPhone13 to 100% every night without affecting the battery life?


Simply using the battery adversely effects its life.


Enabling optimized charging as suggested above and charging on a regular schedule enables a charging algorithm that specifically avoids fully charging the battery until just before your daily usage starts, reducing the adverse effects of charging the battery fully. The algorithm will charge to 80% and hold, and will then make a “dash” to 100% just before your day usually starts.


Getting four or five years from an iPhone battery is not unusual, and replacement is available.
