Several users have shared the screenshot of overnight gaps in their battery settings, confirming that the iPhone was off for a certain period of time. The issue has been reported across several iPhones including iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 13, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone SE Gen 1 and more. These devices were running on iOS 17 mostly, but one user’s device was running on iOS 15.
9to5Mac reported that users even woke up to iPhone’s passcode screen that pops up after the device is restarted. These iPhones were switched off for a few hours right after their battery reached 100 per cent charge.
One user on X, formerly known as Twitter, wrote “my iPhone 13 shut down last night when it was charging… I have iOS 17.0.3” and shared a screenshot of his battery level graph backing the claims. Another wrote, “My iPhone 13 did shut down at 1AM last night and turned back on right before my alarm. Weird.”
