• iOS 18.2 beta 2 code suggests iPhones may eventually show the estimated time needed for a full battery charge.
• The new framework, “BatteryIntelligence,” will likely calculate the value based on the energy delivered to the device.
• iOS 18.2 will debut to the public in December, but it’s unclear if this feature will be activated by then.

Apple has been bringing plenty of battery-related additions to iOS lately. For example, the iPhone 16 and 15 series introduced specific charging limits that could maximize the battery’s lifespan. Meanwhile, iOS 18 now displays an alert when you connect your iPhone to a slow charger. To further complement these features, iOS may soon start estimating the time it takes to fully charge an iPhone’s battery.

According to iOS 18.2 beta 2 code seen by 9to5Mac, Apple is developing a new framework dubbed “BatteryIntelligence.” When activated, the iOS feature will reportedly calculate the time needed to fully charge an iPhone’s battery based on the energy it receives. The option is still under development, though, so there’s no telling when and if it will surface on users’ ends.
