Just to be clear: You can update your software

Updating your iPhone software. lets Apple nuke your phone to make you buy a new phone is what a shocking number of you seem to actually believe just based on the reactions to the time I tweeted about it. So let me just break down what's actually happening and then we can be the judge of it. The laws of chemistry say that batteries naturally degrade over time, so the maximum power that they can output slowly goes down over time.

So Apple chose to do is underclock the CPU of iPhones with older degraded batteries to prevent them from hitting the lower battery power limit. The problem is, they did this for a while without telling anyone. So that's where the conspiracy sort of started. Years ago.

they eventually got called out publicly and had to admit it and paid 100 plus million dollar lawsuit out over it. But now if your old iPhone experiences an unexpected shutdown due to the battery and not being able to supply enough power, a new setting appears That literally gives you the option to keep running at full speeds anyway. But at the end of the day this behavior is built into the iPhone you already have not in the software update waiting for you. So go ahead and update your phone for Security's sake.

Also, if you have an Old Slow phone, consider replacing the battery instead of the whole phone. It literally gets faster. Again, you're welcome.

    I did replace my battery. TWICE! And the phone had never been to able offer as long a usage as it had before the iOS update.
    And, actually, by the second battery instalment, the phone performed worse than on the first battery replacement.๐Ÿค”
