I have seen the new i phone 12 pro max the case and wirless chargers run on a magnet connection. I am pre ordering the phone as soon as it comes out but in my car i have a phone holder that requires a magnetic sticker to be stuck on the back of the phone i was wondering would this effect the use of the mag safe charger and phone case

iPhone XS Max, iOS 14
Here’s my experience, I’m using Joyroom car magnetic mount, and it works without the magnetic piece, meaning the MagSafe ring attaches to the device without adding another magnet.
Adding another magnet, will not allow you to charge your device through a MagSafe charger.
I use a metal plate on the back of my iphone 12 but I haven't tried wireless charging with this setup. So far phone works well and I don't see the metal plate affecting any functions on the phone. I don't care too much about wireless charging but someone else might.
I know scosche makes a magic mount magnet- but my question is can i just use my regular scosche magnet on the back or will it negatively impact the phone. I dont use wireless charging but i dont want to hurt the phone by using what i already have. (Non magic mount scosche magnet)
Has anyone tried the Nato Mount mag-charger? It has a sticky attachment for your dash rather than the (I hate them) vent mounts and seems to have a larger mag plate than their regular mag mounts which work great. Now that I am getting the 12pro I want to upgrade the mounts but it sounds like its a challange to get one that works easily and without falling off. I am trying to decide between it and the Belkin/apple one (did I mention that I hate vent mounts?) Also the Nato is cheaper if you buy 3. Thanks!
Worked out really well actually. I didn't have to stick a magnet to the back of the magsafe charger, it just stuck to the car mount on its own and doesn't fall of. The phone sticks to the magsafe pretty well too and charge speed is good.
Only slight annoying thing is when you take the phone off the car mount sometimes the magsafe charge comes with it but can deal with that.
I placed the metal plate inside the case. I've put a piece of paper between the plate and the phone so that the back glass doesn't get scratched. My circular plate is in the dead center of the phone. I've been using this setup with a magnetic mount in my car for 2 months now and I've not faced any issues.
My question is same, but "reverse". Magnet in my car with stick on metal strip on back of Iphone, under the Apple case. This will not charge in a Namami fast charger that my wife's Iphone 8 uses.

I wonder if Apple can confirm it’s okay to add the third party magnet that’s required to hold the phone...?
I just want to know if using a magnetic sticker plate won’t cause my iPhone 12 pro to blow up on me or have some crazy melting effect. So is it safe or not?
