What’s the latest on avoiding a swollen battery?
I ask because I have a 2020 iPad Air, i5, only used as a desktop and am considering a trade in while it’s holding it’s value!
A lot of confusion on battery issues!

Lithium-ion batteries can swell with age. It's basically normal, though it doesn' hapen to all battteries. Replace them when they drop below 80% capacity.
Lithium-ion batteries use a chemical reaction to generate power. As the battery ages, this chemical reaction no longer completes perfectly, which can result in the creation of gas (called outgassing), leading to a swollen battery. Additionally, if the battery’s internal layers don't maintain proper separation (due to damage or defect), outgassing, swelling, and even fire can occur. Other common causes of outgassing include flaws introduced during the manufacturing process, overcharging, and excessive temperatures - all of which can lead to unwanted chemical reactions inside the cell.
