Although many new features needed for testing were not expected from the beta released yesterday, as these are some of the last test versions before the live release iOS 14.5, brought a few interesting things. One of them is a new calibration tool for batteries of some iPhones, which is supposed to solve the current problems with incorrect determination of their capacity and the related earlier throttling of the phones' performance.

The new calibration tool is apparently only available on iPhonech 11, 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max, which suggests that only these models have problems with correctly determining the battery capacity. As for its operation, users will not be able to worry about it at all - everything will be done completely automatically over a period of several weeks while charging the phones. Once the calibration process is complete, the battery capacity will, according to the supporting document Applu will be reset and the system will, in simple terms, work with the correct data. It should therefore no longer happen that the phone will be throttled in terms of performance earlier than necessary.
When exactly will it arrive? iOS It is very difficult to predict the public release of 14.5 at this point. It seems that the sixth betas released yesterday are not the last ones either, which suggests that we are still a few months away from the release. miniat least two weeks. However, it could easily be much longer – the final betas are Apple in recent months, he has become accustomed to releasing in two or three versions, which would significantly delay the release of the public version. In any case, before mid-April iOS We simply won't see May 14.5th.
- Apple You can buy products for example at Alge, Mobil Pohotovosti or u iStores
Iphone 11 per max… 15 months… I don’t take care of him and he still shows 100% capacities.. it seemed strange to me😀- now I know why😊
Yes iOS It doesn't show much, the best way is to check the battery status via the Coconut appBattery
iPhone 11 showed me 90% battery capacity after half a year. Now after a year and a quarter it still shows 90% capacity. 😄✌️
This calibration will only be performed once, after the update. iOS on the listed models. The user will not have to do anything, and there will be no option to start it manually anywhere. Moreover, it will take some time and it will not happen right away.
