Does my iPhone 5c stop charging at 100%?

Ever since iOS 7 came out the charging icon never changed from the lightning bolt to the plugged-in icon when it was at 100%.
So I want to know if I have been over charging the battery by leaving it charging over night.
Please Help. Thanks.

Yes, it stops charging at 100%. No, you haven't been overcharging it.

  • Why does iphone stop charging at 100%?

    I leave my phone plugged into the charger all night because I use one of the many alarm clock apps as my clock/alarm clock. Each morning, though, the battery is charged only to about 93-96% (presumably because when it hit 100% it stopped charging, but the alarm clock drained the battery).
    Is there a way to have the phone resume charging if it dips below 100%?
    Thank you.

    Hi M to the C: Yes indeed the battery does stop charging at 100%. No damage will be done by leaving the charger attached. I leave my charger attached whenever I am near an AC outlet.
    Enjoy

  • After I downloaded the ios7, my iphone 4s stopped charging.

    After I downloaded the ios7, my iphone 4s stopped charging. Even with the original cables. I've tried pluging in it at the AC charger and two different computers and nothing. It seems that the phone connects and disconnects every 2 seconds.

    Hi jujuschmidt,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If your iPhone isn't charging reliably, first make sure you've restarted and reset it:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the behavior persists, try restoring the device:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If restoring is necessary, doing so should resolve the issue or isolate it to the hardware itself.
    Best,

  • IPhone 5 stops charging

    iPhone 5 stops charging after a minute. It's been a bit temperamental for a while. Earlier today I removed a big piece of dust/tissue from the charging point. Is there any thing I should be doing. Or do I need to take it to the local apple store.

    Your comment about it being a bit tempermental is not the most helpful but it does sound like a trup to the Apple Store is called for. Call and make an appointment.

  • HT1267 My Iphone has stopped charging, what can i do?

    My Iphone has stopped charging, what can i do?

    Does it still work normally otherwise?
    Does it sync normally?
    Have you tried a different computer? Wall charger?
    Try:
    - Resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restoring the iPod from backup
    - Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • How long does your iphone take to charge?

    How long does your iphone take to charge when at various battery levels remaining?
    When your iphone is at 10% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    When your iphone is at 20% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    (Assuming that you charge the phone when the phone is off using the Apple USB cable or dock through a wall power outlet)

    Usually 1 1/2 Hours tops.
    When your iphone is at 20% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Around the Same
    When your iphone is at 50% battery remaining, how long does it take to charge?
    Thirty Minutes.
    I think if it is taking you 6 to 7 hours then something is wrong here. Either the battery is flawed, the cable or dock is flawed, or something is wrong with the outlet. It should not take that long.

  • My iphone 4s stopped charging for no apparent reason

    My iphone 4s stopped charging for no apparent reason...

    Hey guys,
    I have the same problem with a brand new 1  month old iphone 4S.
    It was perfect then last night I had this issue of not charging or not even recognizing that it was plugged in to charge. I have tried everything from a hard reset to trying different cables and outlets but o change. I am back to my old Nokia now and it kinda hurts. Quite the downgrade
    BFH 2011, did you sort your issue out? If so any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks in advance!

    Fixed it. It is on Chevrolet's end. Press config to access the configuration settings. Turn menu/tune knob to highlight vehicle settings. Press menu/tune to select the vehicle settings menu. Choose return to factory settings.

  • TS1538 My 4 month old iPhone 5s stopped charging, original cable with adapter works fine on other iphones

    My 4 month old iPhone 5s stopped charging, original cable with adapter works fine on other iphones.
    I have tried restarting iPhone while its connected to my macbook pro and when it restarts, I see it starts charging again.
    After this, when I plug phone to wall outlet, it works perfectly and charges but next day again it stops charging.

    Will Apple cover this under warranty if the port is damaged due to unknown reasons as its under 1 yr warranty?
    Also, I am out of USA now and would like to know if I can send it through a friend and get it checked out by Apple tech...
    Never has any iPhones of all generations that I owned gave such problem.

  • 4s Battery Stops Charging at 100%

    Since I got my 4s on Friday it's happened pretty regularly.
    I place my phone on my charger at night right before bed.  In the morning when I wake I check the phone and it's charged to 100%.  If I leave it on the charger though and check back in an hour or two I notice that the battery begins to discharger (or simply that it no longer is being charged.)  The last three days when I've taken the phone off the charger the battery has been at 96%, 98% and 92%.
    I'm starting to wonder if this is an intended feature meant to stop the phone from being overcharged, a bug with iOS 5 or a defect with my phone.  I'm doubting it's the later since I've heard from a few people already who are exepriecning the same issue.

    It's not supposed to do that.  The device will stop charging when it reaches 100% but it should not go down if still plugged in.  Your battery meter may be off... try this... fully discharge (till it shuts off) and then fully recharge (100%) the battery to recalibrate the battery meter.
    My observation is that the iPad charger output is reduced at 95 and stopped at 100%, the battery is allowed to discharge from 100 to approx 95% and then power is applied, this is identical to the behavior of a modern Mac portable with a magsafe charger. It's just like any other feedback system, actions taken by the supply (charger) are predicated on the behavior of the load (battery)
    I would not be surprised to see the same behaviour on the iPod and iPhone.

  • Why does my iPhone 4 not charge correctly?  Problem is definitely with the phone and not charges or chords.  Phone will charge but very slowly and no icon comes on.  Computer and iTunes doesn't recognize it a being connected.

    My iPhone 4 quit charging correctly.  It does charge but very slowly and icon doesn't indicate it as charging.  I've checked cables and charges and the problem is definetily with the phone.  My car stereo no longer recognizes it as a device.  Neither does the computer.  The real strange thing to me is that when I plug it into my old klispch speaker dock it will play songs.  My battery life is good when it is charged so I don't think its the battery. I've tried resetting the phone and cleaning the charging port.  I'm out of warranty.
    Would disconnecting the battery possibly reset it from some glitch or is the charging port got some bad contacts?

    I checked with the Genius Bar.  It was a new dilema to the lady that was helping me.  She took it to a back room and worked on it but it came out the same.  She gave me some options for repair or credit for replacement.
    I just kept the phone and put up with slowly charging it by plugging it in and then turning it off.
    I couldn't transfer anything from itunes.
    I finally got fed up and bought a new charging port for $10. and a toolkit for $3.  I looked up a video on youTube for the replacement and did it.
    That solved all the problems, it was the charging port, must have been some bad pins or something because it patially worked.

  • HT201412 My iPhone 4S stops charging a few seconds after being connected to the USB, it will, however, charge when it is switched off.

    iPhone stops charging a few seconds after being connected to a USB slot, it will charge when switched off is I think it must be a software issue.

    HAve you tried using a different power chord? If the power chord is not the issue, it could be the power supply inside your mac.

  • HT201263 My iphone gs3 stopped charging a while back.

    When turned off, then connected to a charging device (car, wall or computer) it would turn on, but not charge. Now it seems to be so dead that connecting it to any charging device does anything. B/4 it went completely dead, I tried the reset holding the Power & Home button at same time. No posative result. Suggestions?

    Morning irishmikeh,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

    Power/Battery
    Battery does not charge from the USB power adapter
    Important: Only original iPhone can be charged from a FireWire-based power source. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the battery may drain.
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    Also refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery.
    Hope this helps,

  • Iphone 5 Stopped Charging

    Hello,
    Last night my iphone would randomly stop charging and vibrate everytime I made a sudden movement. Today, it has stopped charging all together. It is very low on battery, and the phone is only a few months old since I recently upgraded. I never had this issue with my other phones, and didn't have it on this phone until I installed the iOS7.0.2 update.
    The pop-up message when it stopped charging each time was "This accessory may not be supported."
    What should I do? I'd appreciate any help.

    Fixed it. It is on Chevrolet's end. Press config to access the configuration settings. Turn menu/tune knob to highlight vehicle settings. Press menu/tune to select the vehicle settings menu. Choose return to factory settings.
