Battery preservation Should I turn off my iPhone 8 every day to preserve the battery? My son thinks so. The problem is that Screen Time is buggy and it frequently reverts to turning off the screen time if the phone is turned off.

It won't make much difference and it will deprive you of the ability to have your phone backup to iCloud overnight.

In my opinion it would be insignificant. Check to see how little, if any, the battery charge % decreases when the phone is left on overnight.

It would be better to plug your phone into the power adapter and leave it connected all night, every night. A bonus to this is that you start every day with a fully charged battery.
