Hey
I'm wondering that does overcharging the iphone 5 battery or leave it charging all night effects on the battery ??
Because I really use the iphone and I usually charge it at night
The battery is really good at this time (usually 8-10 hours usage)
But as I said I was just wondering because I have BatteryDoctor and it said that I must not leave it charging after it's full.
Thank you 😀
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1
it would be a no issue if u leave it over night as iPhone has chip to prevent it from over charging more over iPhones have lithum polymer battery that to safe so leaving it over night won't create a problem

You COULD look at the post 5 above yours. If that isn't good enough you will have to research lithium battery technology on your own. Then you will know as much as those of us who DO understand it know. I don't feel obligated to do your research for you.
But you know I'd trust you're research. 🙂 If that isn't clear, I do apologize.
The amount of old wives tales in existence on the subject of batteries boggles the mind
Given the fact that whappen'd completely ignored the citation in Michael's response and continued to demand the Michael should provide a citation, I suspect their interest is more in seeing if they can get us to jump through their hoops rather than actually learning anything.

Enuf of these unsubstantiated claims! Document what you claim to be facts, that is cite sources, so that one can follow up on it, in case s/he wants to learn more. Scholarship isn't pedantry, it's useful. As this thread stands no one really knows anything other than the self-appointed and undocumented "experts." I still don't know whether one can lead an iPhone plugged to a charger indefinitely without damaging the battery, or even the phone.
(a) I did supply a citation to the SBS info forum which has links to the complete documented industry standards for SBS SMART-technology battery's and their charging and control circuits. I cannot make you actually read it and educate yourself about a technology that is old news nowadays.
(b) You just refuse to get it. You can leave ANY SMART Lithium battery powered device plugged in as long as you wish - ANY and EVERY device powered by modern SMART Lithium technology has built in over charge protection and has since the standards were introduced in the late 1990's. It doesn't matter whether it's an iPhone, some other smart phone, a laptop, an electric razor, a tablet, or anything else. If it's powered by a SMART lithium battery conforming to the SBS's standards, it cannot be overcharged.
SSorry, Meg, I didn't mean to respond to you. The reply button is in a confusing spot, especially on an iPhone. I was responding to a different post, the same one you responded to.

I was pretty sure that was the case but wanted to cover all my bases.

Yes, did you even read the posts in this thread? You cannot over charge an iPhone - it's fine to leave plugged in as long as you wish. Once the battery is charged, charging stops.
I'm pretty sure its safe 😀
Thank you Idris for your quick response and good advice.
Thanks to you too Swipr :-)
That's not the fault of those who discuss here, but your own.
Overcharging iPhone 5 battery?
