Should I be charging my iPad every day?

[anon8196564]

I'm pretty much attached to my iPad and by the end of the day it is usually around 15% this is when I charge it overnight. I was just wondering if this was normal should I be charging it every night and will this have any long term impact?

If you're not charging every night, it won't have any power to last the day.

No and yes. Your iPad, and every electronic device with a rechargeable battery is made to be recharged when it needs it. Lithium battery's do disintegrate over time, but that can't be helped, it's just how it is.

I'm always on mine, and charge it up every night. Use it and enjoy.

I usually go through about 60 to 70% a day.

You charge it when it's low, so in your case you should charge it every night.

I charge it nightly regardless of the level. Never know what I'm gonna out the iPad through the next day.
Good Luck

My iPad mini only gets a charge every other day. It all depends on usage.

So even if it's at 90-100 you charge it? Lol

I charge mine everyday and start panicking when battery level reaches below 20%!

After 8.3 update I had to charge twice a day! Down graded to 8.2 two days ago so it looks like I'll make it through the day on a single charge. I can live with the 8.2 bugs but short battery life was a pain. Anyone else seeing shorter battery life with 8.3?
