How do I charge iPhone 16 Pro Max battery between 20 and 80%

How do I charge my iPhone 16 pro max to take care of the battery? I have to charge it 100% or between 20 and 80%, because now I charge it between 20 and 80%


I want to know how to take care of the battery properly, because so far I charge it between 20 and 80%

It really depends on your preference. If you would rather start your day with a full charge at 100% or have your battery health last a bit longer over time but with an 80% charge limit. I agree with you for both options that you shouldn’t let your iPhone battery get below 20%. I personally do the 80% charge limit as my iPhone 16 Pro Max has plenty more battery life than I need and I always end the day with extra charge.


But the best habit is to charge your iPhone all night, every night with Optimized Battery Charging. This will wait to charge your iPhone past 80% and minimizes the time your iPhone is fully charged which is good for the battery.
