The recalibration of battery health reporting takes weeks to process as it requires regular charge cycles from using your phone. As Apple explains in a support document, “Maximum battery capacity is determined using a set of algorithms and measurements taken during use. Over time, these algorithms might be updated to provide the best estimate of maximum battery capacity.”

Once the process is completed, the maximum capacity percentage of your battery will be updated and hopefully, you will not have to experience unexpected battery drain and reduced performance.
