iOS 26 beta 7 introduces a useful option for iPhone users: Adaptive Power notifications. These alerts let you know when your device makes small performance adjustments to extend battery life. If you’ve updated to the latest beta, here’s how to turn the feature on or off.
How to Enable or Disable Adaptive Power Notifications
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone.
- Scroll down and tap Battery.
- Select Power Mode.
- Toggle Adaptive Power Notifications on if you want to see alerts, or off if you prefer not to be notified.
What Are Adaptive Power Notifications?
Adaptive Power is a brand-new battery mode in iOS 26. Think of it as a middle ground between regular usage and Low Power Mode. Instead of cutting performance drastically, it makes subtle changes to help your battery last longer on high-use days.
Some of these changes include:
- Dimming your display brightness.
- Allowing some tasks to take slightly longer.
- Turning on Low Power Mode automatically when you reach 20%.
With beta 7, Apple has added notifications so you’ll know when Adaptive Power steps in, for example, if your iPhone feels a bit slower, you’ll get an alert explaining why.
Why This Update Matters
The new notifications toggle puts you in control. If you like transparency, keep them on to stay informed. If you’d rather not see alerts, turn them off and let iOS quietly handle battery management in the background.
