Watching your battery dip below 20% while you are miles away from a charger is stressful. Apple's default Low Power Mode prompt is helpful, but it only does the basics. A custom low battery mode shortcut for iPhone goes further - one tap when you notice the battery dropping and your phone locks down hard to squeeze every last minute out of it.
Tap the shortcut the moment you notice your battery running low. It immediately enables Apple's standard Low Power Mode, drops your screen brightness to minimum, and turns off Wi-Fi scanning and background app refresh. Combine it with a Personal Automation in the Shortcuts app to have it trigger automatically at a specific percentage.
Go to getturin.com and describe your battery protocol (e.g., 'Turn off wifi and drop brightness when battery hits 20%').
Wait a few seconds for Turin's AI to build the background automation.
Tap the 'Install' button to add the low battery auto mode directly to your Apple Shortcuts app.
Goes far beyond Apple's default saving mode by actively managing brightness and wireless antennas.
You never have to manually adjust your settings while helplessly watching your phone die.
Lets you set the precise percentage when these extreme measures should kick in, like 15% or 30%.
