Android 11: Calibrate battery - this is what you should pay attention to

In order to use your Android 11 device as usual, it is necessary to charge it regularly. Over time, this may cause the smartphone to no longer display the correct charge level. In this case, it is necessary to calibrate the display for your device's battery.

How to calibrate your battery on Android 11

Since the battery is a hardware component of your Android device, you cannot calibrate it directly. However, since after some time the display often no longer works correctly, it is possible to calibrate it and thus map the true state of charge.

1. Connect your smartphone to a power source and wait until it is charged to 100 percent.
2. Then you can remove the charging cable again.
3. Now use your smartphone and wait until the current battery level on the display shows only 2 percent. It may be helpful to watch a video or the like on your phone to speed up this process.
4. Now turn off your device and connect it again to a power source to charge it back to 100 percent.
5. You must then repeat these steps up to three or four times.
6. Once you have done this, the display on the phone should now present a more accurate charging state.
