Along with the new iPhone 14 models, Apple also introduced the iOS 16 operating system. The new operating system also brought some problems on the phones. With various updates, Apple is slowly trying to solve these problems.
What is the charging standby alert?
With these updates, the company added the ‘charge pending’ warning on iPhone models in iOS 16. So what does this warning mean and what to do when faced with this warning? The new ‘charge pending’ warning introduced in iOS 16 appears in certain situations.
When iPhone models overheat during charging, the phone gives this warning and suspends the charging process to protect the battery. This warning can occur as a result of the phone being under the sun or being in a hot place. Devices that are already hot during charging can get even hotter due to such external factors.
Apple did not provide any details about this error notification. The company is content with this warning, with the statement that “Charging will continue when the iPhone returns to normal temperature”. So in this case, the user is not left with much choice.
Steps to follow to cool the phone
Ignoring the notification and continuing to use and charge the phone is an option, but this action will bring some damage to your phone. Over time, your battery will become damaged by overheating. So you can take various steps to cool down the phone. We can list these steps as follows:
- Stop all apps, especially those that use cell data
- Reduce brightness or use auto brightness
- Turn On Low Power Mode
- Put iPhone in airplane mode
- Turn off iPhone completely
In addition to such measures, we recommend that you check if your phone is up to date. Apple recommends that you always run the latest software update for optimum battery health on your iPhone and other devices.
