Idk what is going on with my phone , I have an iPhone 5 . And randomly about a week or two ago the battery has gone to crap .
It'll say 100% open an app and will die plug it in and turn it back on and it says like 58% so I continue to use it and it dies again turn it back on with 30%
For example I just took it off the charger at 100% 3-4 minutes ago I loaded a website to check a happy hour special and now to post this and I am already at 42% and if I tried to open snapchat it would die as it always does , what is the issue
-Hard reboot. The easiest thing to try first. Hold power & home button until it restarts. Usually have to hold for 10 seconds.
-Recalibrate. Sometimes the battery simply needs to be calibrated. There are multiple methods & I admit I don't know the exact or best way. Google around.
The battery could be going. (I think my iPhone 5S battery is going fairly soon.) The iPhone 5 was released in 2012, so the battery has likely had loads of use.
Just afraid of going through apple , I broke my screen a year ago and it was out of warranty I didn't have a money for new phone so I went to one of the fix booths in the mall and got a brand new screen for 100 so they will know it was fixed from an outside source and I would have to pay ojt of pocket for a new one regardless

Your phone is way out of warranty. The screen has nothing to do with getting a new battery. Mrs5150 had her battery replaced for under $50. That was for her old iPhone 5. She has since moved on to a iPhone 6. Check out the new iPhone SE.
Where? Or was it a do it yourself kit? I see on the Apple Store it's $79 for Apple to replace the battery out of warranty.
Not a bad price, actually. Apple isn't going to care if someone else replaced your glass.
