When Should You Replace Your iPhone Battery?
Check the 8 signs below to know when you should replace your iPhone battery
Check yours under Settings > Battery > Battery Health & Charging to identify if your device needs service.
A full charge depleting in just 4-6 hours of normal use indicates significant capacity loss
If your phone dies at 20% or 30%, the battery can no longer deliver the peak power required
Apps launch slowly, or scrolling feels “choppy” because iOS is throttling speed to save power
Excessive heat during light tasks (calls, web browsing) is a classic sign of chemical degradation
Sudden drops (e.g., from 50% to 20% in minutes) mean the battery sensor is no longer calibrated correctly
You see a specific alert in Battery settings stating “Your battery’s health is significantly degraded.”
The phone refuses to charge past a certain point or stops charging intermittently.

Pre-Repair Diagnostic
Safe Battery Removal
Installation and Resealing
Voltage Verification
Final Testing and Return
1. Pre-Repair Diagnostic
Technicians run a comprehensive health check to confirm the battery is the true culprit. This assessment verifies battery health degradation, identifies any additional issues, and ensures that replacement will resolve your device’s performance concerns before work begins.
2. Safe Battery Removal
Professional technicians carefully extract the existing battery using specialised tools, including pentalobe screwdrivers, suction cups, and spudgers. This process protects display cables, Touch ID and Face ID components, and internal connectors from damage.
3. Installation and Resealing
Technicians install the replacement battery with proper adhesive application and precise connector alignment. Technicians apply new water-resistant seals to help restore water- and dust-resistance (note: the original IP68 rating is not guaranteed once the device is opened).
4. Voltage Verification
Technicians perform a rapid, precise verification of the stability of charging current and voltage. This confirms the new battery is communicating correctly with your iPhone’s power management system.
5. Final Testing and Return
Final inspection confirms all device functions work correctly, including charging, display, Face ID or Touch ID, and cellular connectivity. You receive your iPhone with the repair completed and a 6-month warranty on the battery replacement.

Frequently Asked Questions About iPhone Battery Replacement
Find answers to common questions about iPhone battery replacement services at FixUPP.
Contact FixUPP immediately when you experience issues after battery replacement, such as the battery not holding a charge, unexpected shutdowns, or inaccurate percentage readings. All replacements come with a 6-month warranty. Simply bring your device and receipt to any FixUPP location for a free assessment and, if the battery is defective, a free replacement.
No. Replacing the battery affects only the power supply, not the storage chip that holds your photos and messages. However, as a best practice for any electronic repair, we always recommend backing up your device to iCloud or a computer before visiting.
Yes, but it is not recommended due to significant safety risks:
- Fire Hazard: Puncturing a lithium-ion battery can cause a thermal runaway (fire).
- Damage Risk: Without specialised tools (spudgers, heating pads), it is easy to tear the fragile ribbon cables for Face ID or the screen.
- Performance: DIY kits often contain low-quality batteries that degrade quickly.
Not fully. While we reinstall high-quality, water-resistant adhesive seals to restore splash and dust resistance, we cannot guarantee the device’s original factory IP68 rating once it has been opened. This means your phone will be safe from rain or accidental splashes, but we strictly advise against submerging it in water or taking it swimming after any repair.
