IPhone 7 plus battery life

IPhone 7 Plus has battery issues at 3 years... is this common with this phone?

Thanks!

Here are a few things you can try.


Open the settings app, and click "battery." You might see a message that says "Service now," which is a sign that it's time to replace/service the battery (or replace the phone). Rechargeable batteries inevitably decline over time, so this is nothing unusual. Otherwise, follow the steps below:


  1. Turn on "low power mode" whenever you can.
  2. Do a "soft reset" (no data is lost) by holding down the volume down and power buttons for a few seconds. This will make your iphone restart.
  3. Turn off notifications for as many apps as possible.
