Apple pledges to alert users on iPhone performance
Apple has committed to be clearer and more upfront with iPhone users about battery health and performance, the UK’s competition watchdog has said.
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) had raised consumer law concerns with the Cupertino-based tech giant last year after finding people were not being warned clearly that their phone’s performance could slow down following a 2017 software update designed to manage demands on the battery.
“The CMA became concerned that people might have tried to repair their phone or replace it because they weren’t aware the software update had caused the handset to slow down,” the watchdog said in a statement on late Wednesday.
