IOS 10.1.1 causes serious battery problems

It looks like it is another flawed iOS update. Although the optimization of the hardware with IOS ensures its users that the battery life is never a big concern.

It’s not clear how widespread the issue is but until there’s a fix you might want to think twice about updating to iOS 10.1 or iOS 10.1.1 if you haven’t already.

Yesterday (Nov. 28), 9to5Mac reported that you can check the characters in the “4th and 5th” position match an item in a list below to see if your iPhone 6s qualifies.

Consumers in China and the rest of the world have complained in recent weeks that their iPhones are shutting down, even though their batteries reportedly still have 30% power remaining. The problem seems to have appeared in conjunction with the upgrade to iOS 10.1.1. Users have taken to Apple’s support page to discuss the problem. The numerous complains put forward the fact that the shutdown point might be marginally higher or lower than the 30% mark.

Strangely enough, lots of them are also reporting that once their handset reboots, the battery charge jumps from 0% up to 30% nearly instantly, and it doesn’t seem to matter how long the device has been charging for. Yet after plugging it into the electricity, the phone would magically return immediately to a 30 percent charge. It got most positive reviews, but after they released 10.1.1 update, something has gone wrong. While those issues have clearly been resolved, it does not help that a new one has come to light in the form of reduced battery life. What’s not known is whether iOS 10.1 contributed to extra wear and tear on those batteries.

According to the release notes, it is created to fix a handful of bugs – including an issue where Health data could not be viewed for some users.

The problems don’t seem limited to any specific iPhone model or feature, and there’s no known cause or solution as of this writing.

Are you one of those affected by this iOS 10.1/10.1.1 battery bug? The Cupertino-based company’s new predicament comes just over a week after it announced a battery replacement program for problematic iPhone 6 and 6s units.

The Apple iPhone smartphones have been suffering through a few battery issues, according to many reports. Many other device owners joined in and shared their similar problems too.

The good news is that you can have this problem fixed free of charge.

Given that you charge your iPhone nearly every day, you’re likely to get more than 300 cycles a year.
