My hunch is that parent has Peak Performance Capability battery throttling turned on. When my 6S crashes and turns that protective feature on, I too noticed how slow everything gets. But I disable that because I'd rather have the occasional crash than suffer the extreme slowdown during the 99+% of the time that I'm using my phone without problem.
If this is Facebook's solution to that type of slowness though, that's not a great solution. I feel like having both the app and camera on will drive up CPU usage making it might more likely that a power spike happens which will cause your phone to shutdown. Not a great tradeoff in my opinion for older phones.
- ProfessorLayton 7y agoIn an effort to extend the lifespan of my 6S I had my battery replaced by Apple January of this year, and iOS lists the battery’s health at 92%. One setting that seems to have impacted my phone’s performance is the “Optimize storage” setting that works in conjunction with iCloud and Apple Music. What seems to happen is that iOS will fill up my phone’s 64gb capacity before purging photos and music into the cloud. This results in aggressive memory management, resulting in many safari tabs reloading, and apps starting cold again. Often times apps in in the home screen will flicker “cleaning” in their names, which apparently iOS does when running low on storage space. This all cascades into the slow loading times described in my original post. Not the best UX, but better than manually managing storage on my phone. I’m sure I’m not the only one with this setting, so I don’t think my experience is uncommon.
