It could harm older battery technologies such as NICD, but with lithium ion batteries, when the battery is charged, the charging circuit turns off, there is no such thing as a trickle charge for these kinds of batteries, so leaving it connected to a charger should be fine.

Hello everyone



Does it do more harm than good if I leave my iPhone 8 on a charger all the time?

I have read somewhere that phones and tablets only have so many: charge cycles before they can't hold a charge anymore.

I have been told by apple that they recommend not: fully discharge the device but top it up regularly. However, I wasn't sure about leaving it on the charger for all of the time. Obviously though, I would take it off if I had to go out somewhere.

Thanks in advance for anyone who can clear up if leaving on charge is either good: or bad for the overall health of an iPhone 8 battery.

Daniel
