How to stop IOS 11 battery full beeping

I should have thought of this earlier. I restarted the phone. Things seem better now.

Yes, there is an issue. Something is wrong. You should consider the wall adapter. Also, try restoring the phone from a back up and testing. Your phone shouldn't do that.

My IPhone X is doing the same with IOS 11.2.6

I really hope Apple fixes this bug with the next update, it’s really annoying & keeps waking my husband throughout the night. I’m a heavy sleeper & don’t hear it but he has to get up every morning around 4am to unplug as it keeps beeping & waking him.

An iOS update is not going to fix a phone that is defective. The behavior your seeing is not normal. You need to do basic troubleshooting steps and, if they fail, take your phone to Apple for evaluation.

This is by far the most frustrating thread I have ever read. On one side multiple people, myself included, are posting about exactly the same fault symptoms. On the other there are basically 3 people who refuse to accept what they are being told and keep insisting that the posters have faulty phones/batteries/chargers or whatever. Let me make this perfect clear. With so many people posting about exactly the same issue then it isn't bloody lint in the charging port! I'm an engineer working on very high tech equipment and these reports would be sounding alarm bells right back to our factory. OK, you haven't seen the problem yourself. Lucky you. Lots of other people have though, and just mindlessly repeating the same advice is totally unhelpful.

What we do know is this. The phones affected are at 11.2 or higher. It seems to mostly affect wireless charging. Multiple charging devices are producing the same effect. It's a bug and Apple need to acknowledge and fix it. The workaround posted by one user is so far the only useful bit of advice.

For the record I have a 1 day old iPhone 8 Plus with a brand new Dockall D100 charging base and it pings when the battery is full and the screen displays the full battery icon. And there's not a speck of lint anywhere!

There are very, very few people posting about this issue. If it were a software bug, the likeliehood is that it would affect a lot more people.

Actually, the original post referred only to iOS 11. A least one of the earlier posts refers to iOS 11.0.2.

And, lint is only one possibility. Others have been mentioned are non-MFI charging equipment and faulty charging port. Yes, there is a problem with some people's phones. Out of the millions of iPhones sold, that's going to happen. When there is a genuine bug, the forum is flooded with posts and it makes the news. So, do the troubleshooting. As you are an engineer, I'm sure I don't need to tell you how to do that.

Best of luck.

Well, you can add me to the list of people seeing this behavior. Times 2X. Both my wife's 6S (purchased last year) and my 8 (purchased last week) both do the same thing. Once it reaches a full charge, it bings, and lights up the lock screen displaying a 100% charge bar. Leaving it on the charger (as who wouldn't during the evening?), it will repeat this approximately every 10 minutes.

It does it on a number of wired chargers (both Apple and quality third party - no cheap Chinese junk chargers or cables). Both phones are on 11.3.1, and it did it on earlier versions of 11.x. However, my iPhone 7 had never done this, and of course, it was never on iOS 11.

It is hard to believe that this is a hardware issue, and not software. That this thread is now up to 11 pages shows that there *are* a number of people that this is annoying.

A hardware issue would imply one of the following: The hardware is improperly designed; the hardware was improperly manufactured, or that some damage has taken place since the device was manufactured.

Software is designed so that the hardware behave in the manner desired. The iOS needs to do this across all models of hardware it is designed to operate, and in tandem with all software correctly written to meet that iOS specification.

What I am observing is it happening on two different models of iPhone (6S and 8) as they are brand new out of the box. Happens with the supplied Apple chargers and cables. My phone has many apps, but my wife's has next to no 3rd party apps. Both phones are in nearly new condition today.

The behavior of repeatedly notifying that the phone is charged is not correct. It should do so once, until a new charging cycle is started. The design of this particular code is likely incorrect, most likely using the wrong signal to determine the cycle has started again.

Actually it should make no sound at all when it reaches 100%. But this can also be a problem with the battery, the power control chip, and as you say 3rd party software. But Apple's programmers cannot correct anything unless they are aware of it. Contact AppleCare and provide them as much detail as you can.

Let me restate something that has been said several times. iOS devices do not beep at full charge. Never. Period. The only beep when first connected to a charger, or when the charger stops, then restarts.

I have had 9 iOS devices in the past 10 years. I change my iOS devices overnight, every night. Four at a time (including my wife's). so that's about 14,000 charge cycles. And none of them has ever beeped when they reach full charge.

If it's doing that there is something wrong with the charger or the connection to the charger. Make sure that the phone is properly set on the charger, not off to the side or at some funny angle.

My iPhone 8 is not plugged in, it’s sat on a wireless charger. This works fine and charges phone well. However, once it reaches 100% the phone gives nat bing. It then randomly repeats it. Very annoying when trying to sleep.

There is a issue. There is a problem when the phone 6s is fully charged. I replaced the charge wire that is plugged into the house receptacle. The notification is a beep and also tranmitts light. In order to able to not hear or have the light go on I must unplug the charging wire. The charging port is clean and the charger replaced. So there is a issue.

I’ve been having the same problem since I installed the last update 11.2.1

It is very annoying. The beeping starts when the battery is almost 100% and keeps it up every minute until I disconnect it from plug in power. I have tried it with multiple different power cords, outlets, and types of power, even computer and TV. So it is a bug in this software. I have not found a fix anywhere. We just have to convince Apple that they made a mistake in the update and it is not our power source. Seems they would notice that every iPhone owner is having the same problems with their plugs. Right?

If you want Apple to listen to you, post where they read.
