iOS update to fix battery
As it became known earlier, Apple intentionally slows down its battery, and that was one of the biggest scandals in 2017 year.
This decision has led to the limiting of the performance speed and resulted in a bunch of lawsuits.
Fortunately, this week, Tim Cook, a CEO of Apple, announced they are planning to launch a new update which will allow choosing which feature to preserve: turn on the battery or performance balancing system.
“We will tell somebody we’re slightly reducing, or we’re reducing your performance by some amount in order to not have an unexpected restart. If you don’t want it? You can turn it off. Now, we don’t recommend it, because we think people’s iPhones are really important to them, and you never can tell when something is so urgent…” stated Cook in an interview with ABC News.
