Hi Kimberly, Just recalibrate your battery by fully discharging it and that is to the point where the iPhone turns off because the battery totally runs out. Then charge it overnight and repeat once more, i.e. use it again and let it fully discharge. You can speed this up by doing some battery intensive task like streaming video or turning on a GPS app. After the second shut-off once again charge it up fully, then do what you normally do, i.e. run it down to 20% or so and charge it and see if this fixes your issue. There is no need to prevent yourself from getting phone calls by putting the phone into airplane mode to charge, I doubt it would do so much faster than if it is just sitting there with the screen locked.

When I plug in the phone, the indicator says charging but the percentage shown either increases very slowly or not at all. I'm not sure if there is a problem with my battery or the indicator. I have done all the usual stuff like empty the app switcher, reboot the phone, reset network settings but nothing has corrected the issue. Previously my phone would charge really fast when placed in airplane mode, but now even airplane isn't doing the trick. When I look under battery in settings, I see a standby time of 25 hours and a usage of 22 hours which seems pretty normal. Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Anything I can do to try and fix the problem short of going to the Apple Store? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
