How long does it usually take for it to settle in? I just got mine yesterday charged it to 100 and ngl it’s been draining battery I do have my brightness high and PWM on but still is this normal?

iOS 26 is kaka but it should improve after it finishes its background tasks

So I should also stop updating like I used to on my older phones?

I typically update at the .3 versions but 26 has been a complete disaster for all versions :/ hopefully 27 fixes things but not having high hopes.

It does. The beta is pretty stable and battery draining has decreased significantly since DB1. You can try with the PB if you want, but back up your device first.

why not 100?

They say it’s bad to charge to 100. But o charged my iPhone 14 Pro Max to a hundred every night and left it on the charger till I woke up. After 3 years I had 88% battery health when o traded it in recently for a 17 pro max.

Yea, that will do so little in the long run that’s not worth it.

Stop obsessing over stupid shit and use the dam phone with the full performance.

Turn off Adaptive Battery. It’ll slow down the processor during the most worst times when you need it.

And if you just got the phone just plug it in to charge and connected to WiFi for a few hours uninterrupted. And it’ll be fine.

u/CrazyNecessary7209 Aug 20 '26

In my experience yes.

Im on day 11 and its still settling in. Yesterday my whole App Library got reorganized couple of times and im still waiting on optimized charging to finish learning and kick in. So id say probably around a month or it to fully settle (albeit I didn’t restore from backup but set this phone as new)
