How to wirelessly charge your iPhone

Learn how to wirelessly charge your iPhone with Qi-certified charging accessories.

What you need

Your iPhone features integrated wireless charging that allows for an easy and intuitive charging experience. Your iPhone works with Qi-certified chargers that are available as accessories and in cars, cafes, hotels, airports, and furniture. Qi is an open, universal charging standard created by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC).

Many Qi-certified chargers charge iPhone with the latest version of iOS at rates up to 7.5 watts. These chargers are available at the Apple Online Store and Apple Stores.

Other Qi-certified chargers might vary in functionality and performance. If you have questions, contact the manufacturer.

Charge wirelessly

1. Connect your charger to power. Use the power adapter that came with your accessory or a power adapter recommended by the manufacturer.
2. Place the charger on a level surface or other location recommended by the manufacturer.
3. Place your iPhone on the charger with the display facing up. For best performance, place it in the center of the charger or in the location recommended by manufacturer.
4. Your iPhone should start charging a few seconds after you place it on your wireless charger.

You should see in the status bar.

• Learn about charging with the MagSafe Charger and MagSafe Duo Charger.
• Wireless charging uses magnetic induction to charge your iPhone. Don’t place anything between your iPhone and the charger. Magnetic mounts, magnetic cases, or other objects between your iPhone and the charger might reduce performance or damage magnetic strips or RFID chips like those found in some credit cards, security badges, passports, and key fobs. If your case holds any of these sensitive items, remove them before charging or make sure that they aren’t between the back of your iPhone and the charger.
• If your iPhone isn’t charging or is charging slowly and your iPhone has a thick case, metal case, or battery case, try removing the case.
• If your iPhone vibrates—when it gets a notification, for example—your iPhone might shift position. This can cause the charging mat to stop providing power to your iPhone. If this happens often, consider turning off vibration, turning on Do Not Disturb, or using a case to prevent movement.
• Depending on the charging mat you have, you might hear faint noises while your iPhone charges.
• Your iPhone might get slightly warmer while it charges. To extend the lifespan of your battery, if the battery gets too warm, software might limit charging above 80 percent. Your iPhone will charge again when the temperature drops. Try moving your iPhone and charger to a cooler location.
• Your iPhone won’t charge wirelessly when connected to USB. If your iPhone is connected to your computer with USB, or if it’s connected to a USB power adapter, your iPhone will charge using the USB connection.

How to use MagSafe Duo Charger with your iPhone and Apple Watch

Learn how to charge your iPhone 12 or iPhone 13 and your Apple Watch wirelessly with MagSafe Duo Charger.

Your MagSafe Duo Charger is designed to work with all iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models, all Apple Watch models, Apple MagSafe accessories, and Qi-certified devices and accessories.

Use the included USB-C to Lightning cable to plug in your MagSafe Duo Charger to a recommended 20 watt (W) or greater Apple USB-C power adapter* or a compatible third-party USB-C adapter. You can also connect to a USB-C port on a Mac or PC.

Place your MagSafe Duo Charger face up—as shown—on a flat surface, clear of any metal objects or other foreign material.

* The Apple 29W USB-C Power Adapter isn’t compatible with the MagSafe Duo Charger.

Get faster wireless charging for iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models

The MagSafe Duo Charger is designed to quickly and safely wirelessly charge your iPhone 12 or iPhone 13 and your Apple Watch simultaneously. The system intelligently adapts to conditions to optimize charging your compatible iPhone at up to 14W of peak power delivery. The actual power delivered to the iPhone will vary depending on the wattage of the power adapter and system conditions. For iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini, the MagSafe Duo Charger delivers up to 12W of peak power delivery.

It’s important to plug into a power source before placing your iPhone on the MagSafe Duo Charger. This allows MagSafe to verify that it’s safe to deliver maximum power. If you happen to place your iPhone on the MagSafe Duo Charger before plugging into a power source, remove your iPhone from the MagSafe Duo Charger, wait three seconds, and then put it back on to resume maximum power delivery.

The MagSafe Duo Charger is designed to negotiate the maximum power up to 9 volt (V) and 3 amp (A) with a USB PD compatible power adapter. MagSafe will dynamically optimize power delivered to the iPhone. The power delivered to the iPhone at any moment will vary depending on various factors including temperature and system activity.

All power adapters have different ratings for the amount and rate of power delivery. The MagSafe Duo Charger requires the following ratings to deliver faster wireless charging:

• USB-C connector (USB-A is not supported)
• 9V/2.22A power adapter provides up to 11W of power
• 9V/3A and higher power adapter provides up to 14W of power
• iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 13 mini can get up to 12W for faster wireless charging with at least 9V/2.62A
• Higher wattage adapters at or above 9V/3A will also deliver a maximum of up to 14W peak power to your iPhone

To use both the iPhone and Watch charger at the same time, the MagSafe Duo Charger requires at least 15W (5V/3A or 9V/1.67A), but this will result in slower charging.

When Lightning accessories such as headphones are connected, charging is limited to 7.5W to comply with regulatory standards.

How to charge Apple Watch

You can charge your Apple Watch in a flat position with its band open, or on its side, by lifting the inductive charging connector. When docked on its side, your Apple Watch automatically goes into nightstand mode, so you can also use it as your alarm clock.

Place the back of your Apple Watch on the charging connector, with the connector upright or flat. When your Apple Watch starts to charge, you’ll see the charge indicator on the display.

No Charger in the Box? Everything You Need to Know About Charging the iPhone 12 and 13

The latest Apple iPhones don’t ship with a power adapter, but they do support Apple’s wireless MagSafe charging. Whether you use a cable or not, these are the fastest ways to charge the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13.

Starting with iPhone 12, Apple no longer includes power adapters in every box as it moves to reduce package waste (and make some cash on accessories). Its newest smartphones also include support for Apple’s magnetic MagSafe charging. Here’s what you need to know about charging your iPhone 12 and iPhone 13, and what you might need to purchase.

What Comes With the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13?

Every iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 comes with a USB-C-to-Lightning cable, and that’s pretty much it. So out of the box, those who don’t currently have any Apple power adapters will need a USB-C power adapter to charge the iPhone 12 and 13.

Plus, the newer iPhones ship without EarPods, so you’ll need to supply your own headphones to listen to music and podcasts. Apple sells its own AirPods wireless earbuds, but there are plenty of alternatives that won’t break the bank, not to mention our picks for best wireless headphones and those made with runners in mind.

As Apple explained during its iPhone 12 event last year, excluding the power adapter reduces the size of the box. This means 70% more devices can fit on a shipping pallet, which means more iPhone 12 devices can ship to users. Smaller boxes also allow Apple to reduce yearly carbon emissions by 2 million metric tons, it says.

How Do I Charge the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13?

Apple has not fully transitioned the iPhone to USB-C—which typically provides faster charging speeds—or removed ports altogether, so the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 still include the typical Lightning charge port. This means you can use an existing Lightning cable and traditional USB-A power adapter to charge both phones. With the included USB-C-to-Lightning cable, though, you can also plug your iPhone into your Mac laptop.

Additionally, the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 are compatible with current Qi wireless charging pads. However, Apple’s main focus for charging the iPhone 12 and 13 is its built-in, fast charging MagSafe magnetic power connector.

What Is MagSafe?

For years, Apple used the term MagSafe to describe its computers’ charging cable connectors. Their magnetized tips “snapped” into the magnetized MacBook charging ports—and snapped out if disturbed so as not to bring a Mac laptop crashing to the floor, for example. They disappeared a few years ago as Apple transitioned the MacBook lineup to USB-C charging and data transfer, but returned this fall in the M1 Pro/M1 Max-based MacBooks as «MagSafe 3.»

Apple brings a similar technology to the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 lineup in the form of a magnetized “hockey puck” disc that looks like a big Apple Watch charger and snaps to the rear of the phone. This MagSafe connector includes a USB-C cord that plugs into a power source and charges at 15W.

What’s the Fastest Way to Charge the iPhone 13?

Since iPhone 5, Apple has shipped its iPhones with a 5W USB power adapter in the box, with the exception of the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max, which ship with an 18W USB-C power adapter. (Apple’s iPads also ship with 10W or 12W USB or 18W or 20W USB-C power adapters, depending on the model.) So unless the iPhone 12 or iPhone 13 is your first Apple device, you probably have one of them lying around.
