<article> <section class="page"> <p> The number of people affected by iPhone 6s battery issues is growing to the point that Apple is now looking into a software fix.</p><p> Apple admitted (http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2016/12/06/apple-says-iphone-6s-battery-issue-bigger-than-first-thought/95043680/) on its Chinese support website this week that “customers outside of the affected range” are also experiencing unexpected shutdowns due to a faulty battery on their iPhone 6s. This means that Apple has spotted similar problems with devices that were manufactured outside the original September and October 2015 timeframe.</p><p> To address the issue, Apple started offering free replacement batteries (http://www.macworld.com/article/3143529/apple-phone/apple-offers-new-battery-for-iphone-6s-phones-that-suddenly-shut-down.html) to the affected customers. But as the problem continues to appear on more devices, Apple is preparing a diagnostic tool to gather more information and figure out if it can be resolved with a forthcoming iOS update.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/3147884/ios/apple-will-release-an-ios-update-to-help-resolve-the-growing-number-of-iphone-6s-battery-shutdowns.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article> Source: Apple will release an iOS update to help resolve the growing number of iPhone 6s battery shutdowns (http://www.macworld.com/article/3147884/ios/apple-will-release-an-ios-update-to-help-resolve-the-growing-number-of-iphone-6s-battery-shutdowns.html#tk.rss_all) |
