When Low Power Mode is on, your iPhone’s battery lasts longer before you need to charge it, but some features might take longer to update or complete. Also, some tasks might not work until you turn off Low Power Mode, or until you charge your iPhone to 80% or higher.

These features are affected by Low Power Mode:

  • Email fetch
  • “Hey Siri”
  • Background App refresh
  • Automatic downloads
  • Some visual effects
  • Auto-Lock (defaults to 30 seconds)
  • iCloud Photo Library (temporarily paused)

When Low Power Mode is on, the battery in the status bar will be yellow. You’ll see   and the battery percentage. After you charge your iPhone to 80% or higher, Low Power Mode is  turned off automatically.
