12 Pro wireless charging issues

Has anyone had issues charging their new 12 Pro in a vehicle with a charging mat? I have a 2019 GMC Sierra and it will not charge wirelessly. This phone also doesn’t charge on my Mophie 2-in-1 wireless charging stand. Very disappointed that the new phone seems to be incompatible with all of my wireless charging devices.

Performed a reset this morning, and now the phone is charging wirelessly.

Pressed volume up, then down, and then held the side button till the Apple logo came on the screen.

I have the same issue on the charging mat built into my 2018 Volvo XC40. My XS and wife's SE2 both charge on the built in QI charging mat but the 12Pro will only charge if it is on one very specific small spot. If it moves a mm the charging stops. I do use a Spigen clear case similar to the ones on the other phones which work fine no matter where they are on the mat. Without the case on, it is a little better but still not 100%.


Perhaps the MagSafe architecture is affecting things?
