In 2017 Apple apologized and accepted that it relied on software updates to slow down certain iPhones. Initially, the reports suggested that the company did this to force users to upgrade newer iPhones. Later, Apple stated that it did so enhance the health of the Battery. Later the company also offered a battery replacement program to its customers for $79. To further enhance the service Apple reduced the price of this program to $29.
