One of the functions that brings us iOS 26it is something that we have already seen on Android for a long time, and that is that when we connect a charger, it will tell us the time it will take to complete the battery 100%, being able to analyze thus if it is a good cable and head, or not.
This will also help us know the time we must leave it connectedbeing able to return in half an hour, or 80 minutes, depending on that speed, which will not only influence the cable, but the state of the battery, the heat of the place, etc., so it can be different and different.
We can know how long it takes for an iPhone to load
With the new version of iOS 26 that we will see in September, officially, although we can have if we install the beta, we will have a new option. When your iPhone is connected and loading, in Settings> battery An estimate in real time (for example “45 min”) appears of how much is missing for 100 %to reach, so it will serve as a guide to calculate times and quality of devices, as we have already mentioned.
This, in turn, will also tell us if a USB port of a computer, for example, is better or worse, as well as the carrier of a car, since many times we see that it is slow, and we do not really know what the problem is, if the cable, the head, the connector, etc. It will not give us a power, but a speed, so it will help us to guide us.
If your iPhone is below 80 % when connecting, a forecast of the time missing to reach that 80 % (for example: 7 min up to 80 % “) appears on the blockade screen, thus indicating the first of the two sections, since, on the recommendation of Apple, it would be good to disconnect it to that percentage, although we can follow if we wish.
And although it is absurd, since we do not understand the reason, because it could be applied to all, I requires a device compatible with Apple Intelligencewhich limits its availability between recent models, so if you have an iPhone 14, for example, you will not receive this function.
In addition, if you are using a slower load adapter than Apple recommends, your lock screen will also inform you, which should help you understand why the load could take more than expected, without the need to calculate, according to your percentage and time, if this is so or not.
And for you, is it something interesting that you missed? The truth is that most android phones have already been for years, so it seems to us a good incorporation into the iOS system, but we regret that they force us to have updated models, and that they do not work on all iPhone, although something is something.
In summary, with this novelty, Apple takes another step towards transparency in the load, although limited to a few models, and arrives years later than in Android. Leave us a comment with your opinion about it.
