I read all the "7 tricks" bs articles but am wondering if there's more that most people don't know about.

An Apple battery expert told how he thinks it should be done. Use the battery down to about 20%. Charge it back to about 80%. Once every few months (I think he said around three months), charge it to 100%, drain it completely to where the phone shuts down, and charge it back to 100%. He said this "informs" the system with the battery's performance limits. Then, go back to the 20% to 80% pattern.
