Recently, Apple iPhone launched the latest operating system iOS 18, but at the same time, several users on the iOS board of the PTT forum reported that charging abnormalities occurred after the update, triggering a discussion.

The first original PO posted that after his iPhone 14 Pro was updated to iOS 18, every morning at 5 o’clock in the morning after the phone’s battery was raised to 80%, there would be a “beep” sound the plug-in appears repeatedly; “I think it is after updating to iOS 18. The relationship is that there is a problem with the phone itself.”

Some netizens questioned, “Why didn’t you first suspect that there was a problem with the cable and the charging head?” The original PO responded, “The cable seems to have been replaced, so it shouldn’t be a problem with the cable, because it (the phone) only behaves like this when charged to 80%.”

The original second PO posted a message saying that for the past six months, charging started at 11 pm and would be fully charged at 6 am the next morning However, since the update, “it is not the battery is automatically fully charged for two days, and it’s only 6x% when I get up in the morning.” He was curious, “Should I turn off the battery optimization function?”

Some netizens also said, “It will work even if it is not updated. It will charge it before you get up, so if you get up early, you will see an uncharged battery.” The original PO responded, “I didn’t get up early. I’ve been getting up at 6 am for a long time. I was full as soon as I got up at 6 am before the update.”

Take down the spotligt search optimization”, “Only Apple Optimize the charging function, force it not to be fully charged according to usage habits”, “What an excess … what happened to Apple”.
