Build a Battery Cycle Count Shortcut for iPhone

Your iPhone battery degrades with every charge cycle, and knowing your cycle count tells you exactly how much life your battery has left. But finding this information normally means navigating through Settings and hunting for the battery health menu. A battery cycle count shortcut for iPhone surfaces this number instantly with a single tap so you always know where your battery stands.

How this battery health shortcut works

The shortcut reads your iPhone's battery cycle count and current maximum capacity from the system analytics and displays both in a clear notification. You can see at a glance whether your battery is healthy or approaching the point where a replacement would improve your phone's performance.
