Will magnetic mounts affect Magsafe on new iPhones

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

i figured out a solution kinda- the built-in magnet in the iphone 12 pro is not strong enough for the car mounts. you need to use the thin magnet in between the phone and the case. but it interferes with wireless charging if the magnet is directly over center. so I placed the thin magnet towards the bottom instead of the middle and everything seems to be fine (didn't stick it, just put it in between the phone and case and it stays.. but either way). it also works a bit above center to the side of the camera lenses you just gotta play around with it. peace
