Low Power Mode is an iOS setting that disables some iPhone features to save battery charge when it is low.

Apple says it reduces the amount of power that your iPhone is using to make your battery last longer.

You can turn it on manually by going to Settings > Battery and toggling on Low Power mode.

To turn on it permanently, you'll need to create a shortcut to turning it on permanently.

Some estimates say battery charges will last about one and a half times longer using Low Power Mode .

If you find it doesn't save your battery, you can turn off the automation by going into Shortcuts and toggling off Enable This Animation .

If your iPhone battery's maximum capacity has dipped to 80% or lower, you'll see an " Important Battery Message " warning.
