Apple preps AI-powered iPhone battery management mode for iOS 19

Apple: iPhone 15 batteries last longer than originally thought

Apple is planning to use artificial intelligence technology to improve iPhone’s battery life in iOS 19, an iPhone software update due in September, Bloomberg News reports citing “people with knowledge of the matter.”

Mark Gurman for Bloomberg News:
‎

The enhancement will analyze how a person uses their device and make adjustments to conserve energy, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the service hasn’t been announced.
To create the technology — part of the Apple Intelligence platform — the company is using battery data it has collected from users’ devices to understand trends and make predictions for when it should lower the power draw of certain applications or features. There also will be a lock-screen indicator showing how long it will take to charge up the device, said the people.
The driving force behind the battery feature is the company’s upcoming slimmed-down iPhone 17, which will be offered as an alternative to the standard and Pro models. Because of its thinner design, the new iPhone will have a much smaller battery — and fewer hours of life than other models.
By optimizing battery life with AI, Apple is aiming to offset these physical constraints. Still, the battery function will be available for all iPhones that have iOS 19.

‎
MacDailyNews Take: Longer battery life is perennially a top priority for iPhone users, with some 60% of prospective iPhone buyers in a recent study citing it as a key selling point. Users value the ability to use the iPhone, even heavily, throughout the day without needing to recharge.
