How to turn off low battery notification?

Typical snarky reply of a Level 9, most likely an Apple employee/paid fanboi.

And no, we do want notification when the battery is low, we just want Apple to get rid of the annoying decade-old modal dialog warning box and move it to the notification area like they did with all the other notifications. Customers have been asking for this change for years and years and Apple continues to turn a blind eye and deaf ear to the will of the customers.

I have submitted dozens of feedback over the years using that link you gave me, and it goes nowhere.

But it doesn't matter if I am in the minority, the fact that so many of these threads exist and after all these years Apple has not delivered on what the customers want, shows that there is a demand for change.

It would take iOS engineers all of 5 or 10 minutes of work to move the low battery notification to the same place the other notifications live, yet we get new mickey mouse features like confetti and fireworks features in iMessage instead of fixes or enhancements to the annoyances or shortfalls of the system.

Oh, but at least we can send iMessages with the Slam Effect now! <rolls eyes>

It's ok that we get notifications, though it should be a banner or something like that (or configurable so one could choose between the pop-up and the banner).

The problem with this current pop-up is that I have lost real money because of this problem. Competitive games are not playable because of this. Example given: in Clash Royale you can select cards and put them on the "table" (battlefield). Whenever the battery pop-up comes you immediately lose at least 2 seconds of vision (and ability to counter your opponent) and the worst part is, that after you click on dismiss it will immediately drop the selected card on the spot where the "dismiss" button was and there is NO way to cancel the selected card if the popup comes up. I also had this with poker games, where the fold button was underneath the popup. After clicking dismiss the game thinks I pressed fold and thus lost a lot of money and this problem goes back years in time.

Please Apple for the love of everyone in the world, please fix this. It might be even more important then choosing our standard apps. Don't make me want to buy a (upcoming) surface phone, because I like the iphone a lot and just as you at Apple I dislike android.

This is this way by choice. After 4 years and 3-4 whole operating systems you think they would be less negligent of this stuff. But nope, here it is ignored on their own forums for years. Comeone apple, not acceptable...

This is a user-to-user forum. As noted in the terms of use to which you agreed when you registered, Apple's participation here is minimal. If you want to discuss the matter with Apple, you'll need to contact them directly. You an start by using the Contact Support link at the upper right of every page in these forums.

As a consumer, this is not my responsibility, nor do I care.

Apples "minimal" use of this site is great, as a extremely large scale manufacturer that should be all they need to identify this as a problem.

If their consumers are spending their time to log issues about a "feature", and these complaints are stacking up. They should address it.

I do not care if Apple uses this site, I care that any consumer that can google the problem can find there are other users with this frustration, and they have been "Informing" apple of it for years, only to be completely ignored.

Just another drop in the ocean of people trying to help people be aware of just how "Ignorant" these companies really are, and that the only solution is that ignorant people stop buying their hardware.

To bring them to the realization that if they would like resolution of their problem inside of a 5 year timeline, they should probably switch to Android....

Well, if you don't care that your feedback doesn't get heard, I certainly don't. Use the feedback page, or Customer Support or don't. Apple has told you their participation here is minimal. I've told you. If you hang around long enough, someone else will probably tell you, too.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

"Use the feedback page, or Customer Support or don't. Apple has told you their participation here is minimal"

When did people become parrots?

When did minimal become none?

When did google become NOT an asset to get people to see something.

If it shows up with search results they WILL see it.

"If you hang around long enough, someone else will probably tell you, too."

Thanks I am really glad that the people here are more apt to parrot useless lines from the signup.

Rather than fight for the others rallying behind you or helping you.

Help Apple push them into a corner and continue ignoring them.

Thanks for your determiniation "IdrisSeabright"

I hope someone shows you the same helpful demeanor...

No, you appear to be doing that to yourself. You certainly don't need my help. I've done nothing but give you instructions on how to get Apple's attention. However, as it appears you'd rather argue about...what I'm not really sure rather than take constructive action, I will leave you to it.

Best of luck.

Remember that approximately 80% battery charge is optimal. Below 20% the battery wears out much quicker and the power save mode tries to help not getting low too quickly. A full discharge once every like 3 moths if I remember right is recommended though. I've been using my phone for over 10 months now and the battery wear out level is 1%. I rarely let my phone get below that 20%, usually not below 40%. My wife's phone has already got to a 38% wearout in less than 1 year and a half. She frequently let it fully discharge.

Most of your information is incorrect. Lithium ion batteries shouldn't be drained completely. Beyond that, it doesn't really matter much. The battery doesn't wear out any faster at 20% than it does at 80%. You should never completely drain a lithium ion battery. It is not recommended.

Battery lifespan is measured in charge cycles. A charge cycle is one complete charge up. So, if you only drain your battery to 80% and charge it up, you've used one fifth of a charge cycle. Do that five times and it's one charge cycle.

Here's what Apple recommends:

In all likelihood, the reason your wife's battery shows more wear is because she's using her phone more.

I totally agree! This is a nuisance. I use a singing app and whenever this notification pops up, I lose my recording as my iPhone basically stops it wherever I was in the song and I only have the option to save the unfinished recording but not to resume singing. It’s especially annoying when I do video recordings. And I am in do not disturb mode when that happens! A banner or options for notifications should be available.

Submit your feedback to Apple here:

http://www.apple.com/feedback

Meanwhile, when your phone battery is getting low, plug it in, either to a wall or a battery pack.

I have submitted dozens of feedback over the years using that link you gave me, and it goes nowhere.

Maybe Apple disagree with your analysis, I do so it is not hard to imagine that they do.

You have now done all you can.

Y'know its not so stupid to have the ability to turn it off.

Every evening i accompany my baby daughter to sleep and have my phone in silent mode, night shift mode with the brightness right down, and then suddenly there is an annoying hugely loud niise from my phone telling me i have 20% battery life left. I know that! I'm fricking staring at my phone that supposed to be silent!!! Can't the alert on an unlocked phone be just visual?

I read that they don't want people running batteries all the way down as it damages them - well then apple please give me a battery that can last more than one day!

For some reason I can't access the page where you replied csound1, but don't get me wrong, I totally agree with what you said about people can get whatever phone they want. However your answer doesn't add anything, it doesn't help people with this problem and it is just unnecessary. It is a bad solution to simple problems. In your case if you have a tv and the built in guide is not working the way you would like your solution would be: buy something else. Well you might not have noticed, but most people don't want to pay €1000 or more to fix a software problem.

I use my iPhone as a sat nav for work purposes. If my battery is low, this stupid notification box covers the maps I'm using, telling me my battery is low and I have to press the screen to get rid of it.

That's 2 big problems for me!

With the law in the UK it is illegal to touch the screen while the keys are in the ignition. This "battery low" warning is risking me a £200 fine, my driving licence, my job and mine and others lives if I attempt to dismiss it with the keys in the ignition.

If it's not sorted out soon I will be moving to an ANDROID device as they are already starting to be more user friendly than iPhones now.

Sort it out Apple.
