How to check iPhone battery cycle number on computer
If you want to use a computer to check the number of iPhone battery cycles, it is recommended to use the cocountBattery tool directly, because it is free, convenient and easy to use. Even on a Mac computer, you can easily check whether the iPhone battery has aged. The following are the steps to use a computer to query and detect the number of iPhone battery cycles :

According to Apple’s official technical documentation , as long as the battery can maintain 80% of its original capacity after 500 complete charging cycles, as the health of the battery deteriorates, the peak performance also decreases, which represents the number of iPhone battery cycles. As long as it is used more than 500 times, it will easily lead to a decline in battery life.
If the iOS Device page displays the “Access to this device denied” error message, you need to open the iPhone device, click “Trust” this computer and enter the unlock password to allow cocountBattery to read the device battery data normally.
In addition, by clicking on the Battery Info item, you can also query the iPhone battery manufacturer, manufacturing date, and serial number information. Usually some sub-factory batteries will cause these data to not be displayed properly.

How to calculate iPhone battery cycle times? How much does it take to replace?
Many people are a little unfamiliar with the iPhone battery cycle number queried by this script. It doesn’t matter, let’s learn about it together.
How to calculate iPhone battery cycle times ? As long as the device is fully charged to 100%, it will complete a charging cycle. For example, on the first day, 75% of the power is used, and then the battery is fully charged to 100%. On the second day, 25% of the power is used. The number of cycles has been completed, so the battery cycle may take several days to complete, depending on usage habits.
However, as the number of iPhone battery cycles increases, the battery capacity will slowly begin to decrease. Don’t think that the battery will never age or break!
Wouldn’t it be necessary to plug it in and charge it so that the number of battery cycles doesn’t keep increasing ? In fact, there is no need to be so tired. The iPhone battery usually ages significantly after two years of use. Even if it is maintained, it should be replaced in two to three years at most. So you can just use the iPhone normally. The battery does not need to be used. A lifetime is like a battery in a car or motorcycle, it is ready to be replaced when the time comes.
How many cycles does the battery need to be replaced? According to Apple’s official description: ” After 500 complete charging cycles, the battery storage capacity can be maintained at 80% of the original capacity .” Simply explain that when the battery health is lower than 80% or the battery cycle reaches 500 times , it is almost OK. Proceed to replace the battery.
