Apple says that Optimized Battery Charging learns from your charging habits. It kicks in at locations where you spend most of your time, like your home or office.

Turn on the toggle for System Customization. Step #6. Finally, tap Significant Locations. Enable the toggle for Significant Locations.

To restart your iPhone, use the buttons as you normally do. Or, open the Settings app, tap General, and then tap Shut Down. After 30 seconds, switch on your iPhone and check if it’s working.
4. Update iOS
Step #1. Open the Settings app. Step #2. Tap General. Step #3. Tap Software Update. Step #4. In case you have a pending update available, tap Download and Install.
5. Reset All Settings on iPhone
This will erase all settings like remembered Wi-Fi networks, VPN configurations, Keyboard settings, home screen layout, and more. It won’t delete any personal data like photos, apps, or music. But, still, make sure you have a backup before proceeding with the reset. Step #1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone. Step #2. Tap General. Step #3. Tap Reset. Step #4. Tap Reset All Settings. Step #5. Enter your password and confirm. After the process ends, your iPhone will have the default settings, and the issue of Optimized Battery Charging not working on iPhone will be fixed.
