80% charge after charging all night
This is one of the new features in iOS 13 and it seems that Apple has adapted it in iOS 12to some users, including myself. This new feature is called "Optimized loading" and you can activate or deactivate it on your mobile as long as you have the Beta iOS 13 installed. But what if you have iOS 12?.
If you don't know, lithium batteries have a maximum number of charge cycles. These are completed when we recharge the battery to 100%. For this reason, manufacturers recommend that you move between 40 and 80% charge, so as not to exhaust the charging cycles.
With iOS 13, the iPhone learns from your daily charging routine and maintains 80% charge until the hour at that you normally use the phone. Then complete the charge to 100%. It is an option that you can deactivate if you do not want to run out of that 20%, in case you do not usually get up at the same time every day.
But the issue is that this function has been activated for users with iOS 12, for some unknown reason or circumstance. If it has happened to you, don't panic. We tell you what you must do to charge your battery to 100%.
Don't panic if you see that your iPhone only charged the battery to 80% overnight:
Yesterday the scare was quite big when I picked up the iPhone, used it for a few minutes and saw that the battery charge was 79%.

I thought that the stack had already lost all the conditions and I had to change it. I looked at my battery he alth and surprise, it was at 88% and normal peak performance.
After exposing the issue on my personal twitter profile, some users told me that the same thing had happened to them. That is why we share this news with you just in case this happens to you while you are in iOS 12 as I am.
? For some reason today my iPhone has not charged more than 80%. I knew it was something you could do on iOS13, but being on iOS 12? pic.twitter.com/leIYnRNfIy

Possibly tests that Apple is doing randomly or it may be applying this function in case we have exceeded a maximum of charge cycles.
The issue is that we waited to charge the phone again at night, to see if it would happen again and not.Again it reloads to 100%, so we think it's all evidence of Apple or, under some unknown circumstances, this smart load is applied for some reason that we'll try to clarify.
If this happens to you, you just have to unplug your iPhone and put it back on charge to charge the battery to 100%.
Greetings and if this has happened to you, tell us about it in the comments of this article. With them we will try to draw some conclusion about it.
