I have an iPhone 11 Pro which is now about 3 ½ years old, and under battery health it says that it’s still at 100% capacity. Feeling less than confident in this, I plugged it into coconutBattery, which tells me it’s at 97%, and has 706 charging cycles under its belt. I find this unbelievable, especially since in the last few weeks I’ve been getting low power notifications around 6 or 7 pm daily, whereas I used to be able to go all the way until bedtime without getting a notification. I’ve also been getting the nagging feeling that the phone just isn’t as snappy as it used to be — e.g. if I press the power button and put the phone in my pocket, nowadays the screen is often still on when it gets there, so it starts to do stuff as the pocket fabric touches it.

Compare and contrast with my 2-y.o. iPad mini, which has a little over 650 cycles and 88% capacity, according to coconutBattery.

Is there a way to get an idea of the actual state of my battery?

I don’t and never intend to use iCloud. I have everything turned off in “Apps using iCloud”. But once in a while, I have to go to that to inspect, because sometimes a random app would be turned on.

(1) What does it mean to have an app turned on? I tried to log in to my iCloud account and could never figure out where those apps might be stored.

(2) Is there a way to turn it off completely? So I don’t have to always check like a hawk.

Note: version of this is also posted in iPhone@lemmy.ml, I have no idea how to crosspost on memmy. Sorry

On a 14 Pro, I just suddenly have this new predictive text? I cant find anything about it online, and no one else I’ve spoken to has a similar issue. Is it a new feature? it’s kinda kinda better than the other predictive text.

My iPhone XR is starting to show its age. The battery health is at 85% and I definitely can’t make it a full day anymore.

When I open the link from my home screen I get “404: rate_limit_error”

Anybody else getting failed iMessage notifications in the last day or so. It's intermittent for me and when I'm on WiFi.
