Q: Are Magnetic Accessories Okay?

i currently own iPhone 6+ and plan to own iPhone 7+ and wondered whether it would be safe to use magnetic accessories without causing damage to either of my iPhones.

Can anyone please help me?

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.3.5, iPhone 7 Plus 128GB JB on preorder

Magnets of the kind your going to find in phone accessories are fine. Magnetic closures on cases are not uncommon. mophie just came out with a wireless charging case for the iPhone that includes magnetic mounts.

The only issue you would have is if you tried to use the Compass app. Magnets will interfere.

Sorry I should have been more specific. I am interested in a magnetic car air vent phone holder. You place a metal plate inside the back of your mobile phone case and place it in the magnet
