I all, I hope you have some suggestions!
My daughter has an iPhone 5 iOS 8.1.1. The phone is acting very weird, this an example scenario that happened yesterday:
In the morning wake up, phone has been connected to MBP charging all night. Reports battery is 100%. She uses it pretty heavily thru the morning, battery gets to 60%. At that point, phone dies. Press power, charge is 0 (shows the empty battery picture). Plug it in, phone reports 72% charge. This scenario will repeat in a similar way throughout the day, it can die with no power at any time.
I was thinking maybe the charging cable is bad. She is going to switch to another cable. Any ideas what might be wrong? I assume if not the cable, then go to a Genius bar and have them test the battery, yet in a way this doesn't sound like a typical battery issue but maybe it is? It doesn't sound like just draining/find apps that are using the battery problem either.
Thanks for your help!
