iPhone 6S battery and charging port replacement My iphone thinks the battery is ot charging properly and I have also found that the charging/lightning port doesn't always work (doesn't help that some cables have shorter connector!). I have cleaned out the port but it is still erratic in its performance. I know apple can replace the battery at a charge but do they also replace the lightning port? I've seen various videos and ad that suppliy replacement parts and give instructions on how to do it but I'd rather use Apple to do the repair.

Which needs repair: my battery or charging port? I have an iPhone 11 phone. Recently I have been having problems keeping the phone charging even while connected to a charger. The only way to keep it charging is to angle the charger upwards or prop the phone up. I’ve bought multiple rapid charging chargers and have noticed only the more expensive ones ($22) work. And even so, I notice it stops charging every now and then (even when it’s untouched), until I reposition the charger. The port itself is very loose and the battery dies pretty fast compared to what it used to be like. Anyway, is it my battery or the charging port? Maybe I need to replace both, BUT please give me a solution that’ll resolve the immediate issue which is to be able to charge the phone without having to constantly fiddle with the charger and charging port. Thank you so much! Edit: it’s very annoying because I got stranded a few times because the phone doesn’t charge fast enough, doesn’t retain its charge long enough, and the charger doesn’t charge consistently without needing to be repositioned every five seconds.
