Coconut battery on a Mac or the analytics log.

I followed a site to get the log but it is not available on my iPad. Is there an site with more correct information?
Also, for Coconut battery, isn't it just provide a frustrated estimate?

I followed this guide a couple of weeks ago and it worked for my M1 12.9 Pro:

Your iPad has a hidden battery health feature — here’s how to check it

Apple hasn't given iPads a Battery Health feature yet — but this is how you can check anyway

Thanks. In step 2, why I need to wait for a day or two when the data has been recorded? When I clicked on Share iPad Analytics, the top three files start with "analyticsd.diskwrites_resoiurce-2024". There is no "Analystics-year-month-day-time.ips.ca.synced" yet.

You may need to give it a day or so for the file to appear I think. It's really a pain!

It typically appears when my iPad syncs overnight, I believe.

iMazing is a macOS utility app that is designed to work with iPhones and iPads via USB cable or WiFi. Whlle it does a myriad of tasks, it will display battery health quickly.

Both MaximumCapacityPercent and the calculation indicated 86%. Does that mean I will need to replace the battery soon?

Great app. It's also on Windows (where I use it).

No, not necessarily. Depends on how you use your iPad. My iPad mini (5th Gen) has 81% battery health and still lasts most of the day.

I thought this feature was coming to iPads in iPadOS 17.5.
