• Google has confirmed that its Battery Health Assistance feature can’t be turned off on the Pixel 10 phones.
• This feature gradually reduces your phone’s charging speed and battery to “stabilize” battery performance and aging.
• This also comes after a string of Pixel A series phones suffered from major battery issues.

Google introduced a Battery Health Assistance feature on the Pixel 9a earlier this year. This feature gradually drops your phone’s charging speed and battery voltage in the name of battery health. This tool is mandatory on the Pixel 9a but optional on other Pixel phones. However, there’s bad news for the Pixel 10 series.

Google confirmed to Android Authority that Battery Health Assistance is mandatory on the Pixel 10 series and can’t be disabled. That means your phone’s charging speed and effective battery life will drop over time.
