Apple Inc. should launch a new battery management feature led by AI in iOS 19, aimed at extending the lifespan of the iPhone battery by learning and adapting to user behavior, according to sources familiar with development, Azernews
Reports.
This new system, which is part of the larger Apple intelligence platform, will dynamically optimize energy consumption depending on how users interact with their devices. It will also include an indicator of the lock screen which offers estimated charging time, offering users a greater idea of using the battery.
The update should be available for all iPhones compatible with iOS 19 in September.
This feature is part of Apple’s wider strategy to integrate artificial intelligence more deeply into its main operating systems. Sources suggest that the next iPhone 17, which will probably offer a thinner design and a smaller battery, is the main engine of this innovation. Apple focuses on using AI to compensate for the reduced physical battery capacity in the thinner model.
By taking advantage of user data and predictive algorithms, Apple aims to refine the use of power supply between applications and system functions, optimizing telephone performance while extending the battery life. Although Apple refused to comment on the details, sources indicate that this decision signals the efforts of the company to remain competitive in IA space rapidly evolving, because it faces increasing competition of rivals like Openai and Google.
In addition to battery improvements, iOS 19 should introduce a new “Solarium” user interface and stricter integration between iPad and Mac devices, creating a more transparent experience through Apple ecosystem.
Despite delays in the deployment of certain Apple intelligence features, including new generation SIRI, Apple seems determined to improve AI’s capacities in its ecosystem. The update should be previewed at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 9, with a public press release scheduled for the fall.
Beyond the batteries management, Apple would work on a health application fueled by AI of new generation, called “Mulberry”, which, although it should not be released before 2026, could have a significant impact on how users monitor and manage their health via AI. This decision is aligned with Apple’s growing accent on health and well-being, potentially positioning the company to compete more directly with emerging technology in health areas, including fitness trackers and medical AI innovations.
