Default System off to save battery?

2015......I have been getting this (System off to save battery) message lately when I turn the key to accessory. Is this an indication of a weak battery that will soon need to be replaced?

It's a 2015 I've had the truck for 4 years, I don't see a date on the battery but it's a Ford so I'm assuming its the original so yes definitely time to replace.

Do you get the message immediately, or later? I get that message when Accessory mode times out. My battery isn't bad.
