I waited an hour and a half for mine. Not too bad. I just fiddled with the devices in the store and watched youtube videos on the big iMacs to pass the time lol. Answer from Speedblitz on reddit.com

r/iphone on Reddit: How long does a battery replacement take at an Apple store?
June 26, 2017 -

Has anyone had their iPhone battery replaced on their iPhone while they waited in an Apple store? I plan on making an appointment at my local store, and was wondering whether it’s something I could wait for in the store, or if I would have to come back later in the day, etc. Of course, I understand that it might vary somewhat depending on how busy the store is, but just looking for a ballpark. TIA.

Edit: Aternatively, if it’s too long of a wait, is it possible to drop it off and pick it up the next day?

How long does it take to replace battery … - Apple Community
April 22, 2022 - Physically it takes less than half an hour. But how long it will take for a particular customer depends on way too many factors including whether or not the correct replacement battery is in stock, how many technicians are available, and how many other jobs are in the queue to be performed.

I Replaced My iPhone Battery Myself and It Was Easy. ...
3 weeks ago - But batteries do age over time so if you have a much older iPhone or an old Android phone, you may well find that your battery no longer gives you the same battery life it did when it was new. But having an old, worn-out battery doesn't mean buying an altogether new phone; it's surprisingly simple to just replace the battery. Apple has its own do-it-yourself repair program, but even if you don't use that, you can replace your iPhone's battery yourself at home.
