I just got my iPhone 4s replaced because the battery couldn't hold a charge. Now on the second charge of my new phone, I accidently charged the phone overnight, and I think it's dying awfully quickly.
Can someone tell me if overnight charging hurts the phone?

It does not hurt the phone or battery
It does not hurt the phone or battery
are you sure?
Quite sure.
how do you know? how long does your iphone typically last?
I do it all the time. The battery life per charge I get depends on what I am doing on my phone on a particular day. Why do you think charging overnight would hurt it?
No idea how long it lasts. I use my phone as required. I charge my phone as required.
I think so because I did it, and maybe MAYBE i'm just paranoid but it seems that the battery is not lasting as good as it did yesterday. My phone lasted for 2 days yesterday, and today, after overcharging it, it started at 100, and it is now at 66.

Use iPhone Regularly
For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally. Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then completely running it down).
