Re: Getting iPhone battery replaced

This may not be the most elegant solution, but how about a battery case. You 
can find quite a number of them for under $25. It might work for you as 
temporary solution until you get your battery and then could be useful for 
times when you will need more battery

I got the battery replaced on my iPhone 6 last week.  The process was 
wonderful.  I had the phone with the new battery in my hands less than 48 
hours after I took it to the UPS store.  The nearest Apple store is 
approximately 85 miles from my residence, so taking it to the Apple store 
wasn't feasible.  The thing I also want to mention is that the shipping 
charge wound up being only $3.90 each way.  I paid it up front when I paid 
for the battery replacement.

Hi Kathy,

I've heard that the wait time is long. I would go into Background App 
Refresh settings and turn off any apps that you don't want to work in the 
background. Also, go to location Services and turn off apps that don't need 
to know your location. Make sure the ones that do only use it when you're 
using the app, except weather apps. Check Battery settings to see if any 
apps are using a lot of battery, and if so, remove them from the app 
switcher when you're done using them. You could also use low power mode at 
least some of the time.

I hope these suggestions help.

Best,
Anna

Getting iPhone battery replaced

2018-02-12 Thread Kathy Blackburn 
I am running an iPhone 6 Plus and the most recent version of IOS. Just before 
the last update, I began to get concerned about my phone's battery. The phone 
began to feel less responsive, and I did have one occurrence of unexpected 
shutdown. Using a ride-hailing app and Apple Maps for a half-hour trip can take 
the battery from 100 percent to 72 percent or less. I close both apps when the 
trip is complete. When I'm at church, I turn the phone off completely, only to 
find when I power up the phone a couple of hours later that the battery has 
lost substantially more charge. I have made an appointment with the Apple store 
to get a replacement battery, but they couldn't give me a date until late March 
or April. 
I hope I can keep the phone working until then. It may mean I don't use SEEING 
AI as much as I would like, and I may have to do my reading with another 
device. I have already turned off push notifications from several apps.  
Are others encountering this long wait time?
