That’s what I was waiting to hear. My iphone 6s went from “this is the most amazing phone” to “I need to change phone” because of the last upgrades. I was waiting for this.

Replacing the battery on my 6s resolved most instances of my phone feeling slow. So far this new update resolves the remaining lag and pauses.

I went to the apple store a couple days ago and they replaced the battery for my 6S for free!

Probably due to this issue: https://www.apple.com/support/iphone6s-unexpectedshutdown/

Battery replacements aren't normally free unless you have AppleCare.

Bought an iPad last summer and it keeps crashing. Is there a similar issue for these?

I was actually thinking of buying one of these battery case. Don’t care much about doubling the size of my phone, but I do care about the extra day of battery. Anyone has a recommendation here?

My GF did the same here in Australia and, even though her health was above the threshold, they did the same.
