“Letting the Battery Drain Fully Before Charging Is Best”

This is another piece of advice that was helpful many years ago but just doesn’t apply today. In fact, with the modern batteries that Apple uses, sometimes the opposite is more helpful. Short charges throughout the day keep the battery topped off and avoid losing too much power before it cycles, which is healthy for battery life. (Think about how the MagSafe Battery Pack works.) So don’t be afraid to plug it in or drop your phone on a Qi charging mat throughout the day!
