Battery Usage Stats

Under Settings>General>Usage   the Usage and Standby blocks are empty.  How do I get these two blocks to show the usage and stanby time ?

I think I discovered it myself. If you charge the phone while it is OFF the usage stats won't show anything, the phone must be charged while in Standby. Am I correct?

  • Still No Battery Usage Stats

    Hi folks, I've seen lots of posts on this but still haven't seen a good answer. I have had my iPhone since launch day. I haven't hacked it once. I've updated to 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 on the evenings those updates came out. My battery usage stats continue to say the following even after the battery charge indicator reads full-charge as indicated by the "plug" icon:
    Usage --
    Standby --
    Is this a bug? Or does this indicate a hardware problem? Am I too late to get a replacement?

    I've had the same issue since I fist got my phone. I called Applecare once and was told they are aware of the issue and it should be fixed in an update. This was about two days prior to the 1.0.1 release. I also visited the genius bar twice. First time I was told to do a software re-install. Second time they acted kind of clueless but checked a few employee phones and all we like mine, dashes only.
    Here is what I've observed, or my timeline on this issue:
    - After buying my phone and noticing this problem I went to the Apple store and the 4 or 5 phones I picked up all had usage meter stats. Genius bar was closed but someone helped me anyway and suggested a software re-install (this was prior to 1.0.1
    - When I went in for my second genius bar appointment I checkout out at least a dozen phones and all had "charing timer" stats. Both meters apparently counting up (hours charged) and both identical. This was after 1.0.1.
    If I do a restart while the phone is plugged in I get the charging timers instead of the dashes, but my phone acts up and once I restart again it goes back to dashes.
    I've got good battery life. Hopefully this will be fixed in an update down the road. Bottom line is there is a warranty on the phone so I'm just going to stop worrying.

  • IPhone battery usage stats misleading ?

    Hi All,
    Something I've just noticed with recent firmware versions (I believe since 3.0) is that the meaning of the "Standby" figure in the time usage stats, has changed and become misleading.
    It states "Time since lasat full charge", and has a Usage row and a Standby row.
    Now I may be crazy but I'm SURE that the Usage row use to (before 3.0) represent the time that the phone was AWAKE (eg, in use and/or screen on) and the Standby time represented the amount of time the phone was asleep. (screen locked, no 3rd party apps running, waiting for a call etc)
    For example it might say Usage 4 hours, Standby 6 hours, which meant that the phone was awake for 4 hours, asleep for 6 hours, for a total of 10 hours.
    Not so anymore! Now it seems that the Standby figure counts both asleep and awake time. So in the above example the real situation is the phone has been 6 hours since last charge and 4 of those hours it has been awake.
    So really the "Standby" field now means "Time since last full charge", and to work out the true standby time, you must subtract the usage figure from the "standby" figure.
    Why would Apple make a change like this ? Surely this is a bug ? Has anyone else noticed this discrepancy ?
    Regards,
    Simon

    This is how i understood the stats to be since the beginning. Had the first-gen and am now on the 3Gs.

  • Battery usage stats check

    Hey guys,
    I have a new iphone 4, i fully charged it and then recorded its depletion time.
    My battery stats are:
    standby-1 day
    usage-   9 hrs 10 min
    and now the battery percentage reads 5%.
    are this statastics ok for a new iphone?

    Glad that a Restore as New resolved your issue...
    Backup and Set Up as New Device

  • Battery usage stats have vanished

    They both currently show -
    It says they will be shown again after fully charged but it hasn't.
    Since losing the counter I've charged it with battery life being under 20%, do I need to let the battery drain to nothing?
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    try do a reboot, then charge until it's 100% full, then unplug and use for a while, it should have stats.
    no need to drain to nothing, this usually happens when SpringBoard (the home screen application) crashes, a full recharge will solve it.

  • IPhone 4 Poor Battery Life? (Usage stats included)

    I've made appointments at the Genius Bar and they said it was okay, however when I called Apple they said it was low battery life for an iPhone 4 so I'm kind of left hanging. I occasionally play games, but probably no more than 10 minutes or so. I mostly just use data for internet. Brightness is on 1/4, fetch email every hour, never more than 8 apps left in the multitasking bar. iOS 4.1.
    I compared with my friend still with a 3GS and it doesn't seem like mine is any better. I've restored it as a new phone and have done multiple charge cycles. Current usage is below.
    36% battery right now
    4 hours and 26 minutes of usage
    1 day 19 hours of standby
    Is this normal? And if you can, please post your usage stats too. Thanks.

    Battery life seems OK to me (iPhone 4 + iOS 4.1)
    -Wifi always On (At home and work, day and night)
    -Push Notifications On (Game Center, Sportacular Pro, Beejive IM, Facebook, Paypal, eBay)
    -2 Exchange accounts (Gmail and work account. Fetching e-mails, calendars and contacts every 30 minutes)
    -1 IMAP account (fetching e-mails and notes every 30 minutes)
    -Location On (Used everytime I post on Twitter, which means often in a day)
    -Brightness 50% (Auto-Brightness On)

  • IPhone 6 Battery Usage setting not working.

    When I go to my setting and check my Battery Usage setting it states: "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes". I've been using it for hours and I get the same response when I go to the setting. I've turned off my phone multiple times to see if that would resolve it, but it hasn't. Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

    Hello.
    I have the same problem. iPhone 5, iOS8.0.2, used for a few days - still no usage statistics, only "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes".
    I tried restore iPhone (DFU) without restoring backup from iCloud/iTunes, resets, hard-resets, erase all settings, drain battery to 0% and charge to 100% overnight etc. - nothing helps.
    I wrote to the Apple about this problem.
    Here is the page that you can use to contact with Apple and report a bug - https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    Please, give the title of "iOS8 battery usage statistics not working" (or something like that), choose the "Bug ​​report" and describe the problem. Perhaps it will make that Apple will eliminate this problem in the next version of iOS. More report - greater chance.

  • Top right battery icon does not show battery usage

    So over the weekend I did not charge my iPhone, because the icon always said I had full battery life. I believed it because I never made a call, listened to music/video or surfed the net. It basically stayed in sleep in my pocket both days.
    I get to work monday, pull it out to listen to music and I get the full screen battery icon showing the battery is dead with the plug and lightning bolt icons under it, then it turns off on its own. If I turn it on again, same deal.
    I get home, hook it up to my PC and charge it, it works fine.
    Today i've been listening to the iPod all day and surfing the net on EDGE and the battery icon in the top right shows full battery. To test I turned WIFI on for the past few hours to check and it's still showing full battery.
    Basically just the battery icon in the top right isn't recognizing the battery being used. My Usage stats in Settings are also blank for Time Since Last Full Charge.
    Background info:
    Refurbished iPhone bought directly from ATT, came with 1.1.1, immediatly upgraded to 1.1.4
    I've tried hard reboots.
    I keep push e-mail and WiFi off at all times. WiFi comes on very rarely and only for short amounts of time.
    I keep the phone connected to my PC overnight, but the PC does not go into any sort of sleep mode(ruling out not charging overnight)
    I'm going to go home tonight and restore the phone to see if that helps, but I wanted to see if this is hardware related or software. This just started this weekend and i've had the phone for a few weeks now, and other than some short battery life at the beginning when I would keep wifi and push e-mail on a lot, or the random Safari closings, no other issues.

    DOrk4L,
    Have you tried re-calibrating the battery? To re-calibrate it, let the battery drain completely and then charge it fully. You should see correct battery usage after that.
    Hope this helps,

  • Missing usage stats on 4S

    Not sure what happened here. I've never had any kind of problem with the 4S battery usage at all, but suddenly yesterday, my usage stats (Time since last full charge: Usage & Standby) just disappeared. They were there - I used to check them periodically just to make sure the phone was ok, but as I said, they just vanished!
    The phone's working just fine but I'd like the stats to work.
    I've resisted the temptation to update to 5.01 so far as I'm not sure if this would fix the problem or just create new ones!
    Can anyone suggest anything at all?

    OK, now solved.
    I just charged till I saw the plug icon in the corner, removed the connector and put it back again. It charged again for a minuite or so and then the plug icon appeared again. At this point I just re-booted and the stats appeared immediately.
    I guess the phone was not 100% charged the first time the plug icon appeared and these stats only appear after the phone has been 100% charged.

  • STILL having issues with Usage Stats

    My usage stats STILL do not reset after I fully charge my iPhone (regardless of whether or not it is plugged into the wall or my computer). What is the deal? The only time they have reset is when I have reset the phone itself (that was about all the advice tech support had for me).
    This isn't a huge issue, the life of my battery seems normal to me. It is however a useful feature if it were to work properly, and being as how I paid $600 for my iPhone I would like all of its features to work.
    Has anyone else figured out how to resolve this issue? It is not convenient for me to go to an Apple store, so I would like to try to avoid that if possible.
    Thanks!

    I don't know if this will help you or not, but I have had a couple of weird things happen to me on this subject as well. I found that my stats would not reset when using the wall outlet to charge the iPhone. Also if I used the docking station to charge it with the iPhone OFF completely, it wouldn't reset until I put it back into the docking station after I had turned the iPhone back on. I didn't check to see if the result would be the same with the wall charger option. I hope this helps.

  • Problem with iPhone usage stats

    My usage and standby times read the same. Whenever I use the phone for let's say 10 minutes the standby will go up by 10 minutes but its not the case the other way around so like usage doesn't go up when phone is I'm standby. Is this serious and is there a fix

    Jay Davies - I am also running an iphone unlocked on vodafone but in Ireland. I have tried rebooting after doing the steps above and it keeps my usage stats intact now. Before it wiped out the stats if I rebooted - even if I hadn't installed anything. It also wiped out the stats if I didn't reboot at all between charges.
    Those steps above fixed my phone for battery charge life and the usage stats so hope it might for other iphones also.

  • Phone won't display usage stats

    I went to check out my usage stats today and it says that usage stats will display after the iphone is fully charged. I tried charging it again, which didn't help. I also tried resetting and then charging it again. Any ideas?

    Are you talking about the Usage time since last full charge?
    If so, that number sits at zero and will not change during the charge cycle if the battery is fully charged.
    When you disconnect the phone from the charger/docking station, those numbers actually begin to roll based on actual usage. It does not change if you do not use the phone even thought it is disconnected from the charger.

  • IPhone 6 Battery Usage function not working

    Battery Usage feature continues to read; "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes" even though I have now had the phone and used it for one week. Using iPhone 6, 64G, IOS 8.0.0.(no iOS updates have yet been applied) 
    A few days ago I attempted some suggestions posted by others. One of those was to let the battery drain to zero then fully charge. This had no affect on the Battery Usage feature. Another suggestion that i tried was to close all open apps on phone, then shut down phone and then turn back on. This did not resolve the Battery Usage issue either.
    Is apple aware of this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

  • IOS 8.1.2 safari battery usage

    Ever since updating to iOS 8.1, my iPad battery life has declined to the point that i have to recharge every day.
    the only things i use my iPad for are safari, Facebook, google play books, stock music app, and youtube.
    I've checked battery usage, and safari has 90 percent of the battery usage.
    i have also factory reset the device, tried to keep screen brightness below 50 percent, and shut all apps, but that makes no difference.
    i have also updated to iOS 8.1.2, and it made no difference.
    am also considering a nexus 9

    i have same problem, than battery percentage jump from 60 to 45 e in this way my problem is very bud. ios 8 last update is installed on my iphone 5. i think that it is a bug software, and i think this because i called apple support and diagnostic realt time with operator say that my battery life is better. and after home button bug fixed with ios 8.1 now i have this. this ios 8 is the worse update ever. 

  • I'm trying to resolve a battery usage problem

    I'm trying to resolve a battery usage problem on my iPhone 5S ...
    Have been working with an Apple agent via chat and I'm 99% certain it's a software problem, but I can't isolate wish software ...
    So, I'm going to set up my iPhone up as new (when I did this as part of identifying where the problem is, it help its charge for 24 hours) but I have a problem with photos ...
    I can see photos on my iPhone (restored from an iCloud backup) up to date, but on my iMac/iPhoto with my iPhone attached i) I can only see photos on my iPhone up to a date in the past (mid October 2014) and ii) iPhoto says all photos have already been imported ...
    How can I (can I) get the more recent photos onto my iMac e.g. into a folder and then import them from there into iPhoto?
    Also, why is the restore from an iCloud backup taking so long (it's been 14 hours now) when I'm pretty certain everything's now there that should be?

    Just to add ... my real problem is that I can see photos on my iPhone, but in iPhoto with the iPhone connected, I can only see photos up to a certain date - weird?!!!
