My iPad 6th Gen WI-FI had a weird battery level indicator

Recently, my iPad 6th Gen WI-FI's battery level indicator behaved weirdly. It started when I saw that the battery level was stuck at 17%, I decided to restart my device, the battery level was down to 8%, and then weirdly rised to 19%. I then let my device sit for a while, it now showed 15%. After that, it went back to normal. The analytics showed 1932 battery cycles which means around 61% battery health. I had this device since Christmas 2018.

Update: I didn’t properly plug in the charger. It dropped from 10% to 6% in 2 minutes. At first, it charged slowly, but it looks like it’s now charging fast.

Sounds like you're due for a battery replacement. 61% battery health basically means when it says it has 100% charge on the battery icon, it really means it's more like 60%. You'll see this type of behavior when the health drops low. Typically I recommend people replace it at around 85%, at least on phones.

Looks like you can buy a replacement battery here on iFixit if you feel comfortable attempting your own repair. If not, call around local repair shops. iPad Air, iPad 5, iPad 6 Battery
