iPad shows 36% charge but 100% after powering off

After charging all night my iPad shows a 36% charge. I power it off and then on and it showed 100% charge. What’s going on?

It is perhaps likely that your iPad battery has a fault, or is approaching the end of its useable lifespan. You might be best advised to seek assistance directly from Apple Support - and request a remote diagnostic test.


You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page. Alternatively and perhaps easier, you can initiate and manage your support cases using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

You might also visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to test and assess your iPad:
