JAKARTA Apple introduced Low Power Mode for iOS 9 users in 2015. This feature was launched for users who want to extend their phone battery life before charging.

For example, when the iPhone battery is 20 percent and users still have to use their cellphones, they don't need to charge immediately. If Low Power Mode is enabled, the phone will last a little longer than usual.

Although useful, some users complain of the same problem, namely the phone that runs slower when the mode is active. The performance of the iPhone will decrease as long as this feature is active, but many do not realize that this feature is the cause.

As the name implies, this feature will make the phone emit a lower power so that users can use the phone longer. This feature is recommended to be active when the device reaches 20 percent, but users can activate the feature at any time.

To find out if Low Power Mode is active, you can see the battery icon in the status bar. If the feature is active, the icon should be yellow. As long as Low Power Mode is active, there will be some changes that will occur.

If you pay attention, some of these changes should not reduce the overall performance of the iPhone. However, there are several other Apple actions that do make the performance of the iPhone decline when Low Power Mode is active.

Although not explained on its official website, citing from 9to5mac, Apple will reduce the use of its chip performance core. If previously the chip core could work simultaneously, Low Power Mode would block previously smooth iPhone performance.

Therefore, the iPhone feels slower even though the power used is far less. If the user is using an application that requires high workforce, it is better if the activity is paused temporarily while waiting for the phone to be charged.
