iPhone 12 Pro Max not wirelessly charging

This charger. But part of why I bought it was it also charges Apple Watch and the wireless charging case for my Jabra Elite 85t all at the same time.

I updated to 14.3 and still will not wireless charge. What’s up with this Apple, you let us down on one of the most modern phones of all time and what is now old technology is now superior to new technology. Apple you need to find a solution and fast.

If you mean ‘solved’ by the fact you’ve bought something else, then it’s not solved is it? Whilst your charger may work, the iPhones should work anyway with what we have. IF Apple had stated there would be compatibility issues then all of our arguments would be mostly invalid, however they did not and as such, any iPhone 12 that has Qi charger issues is faulty on Apple’s fault. I shouldn’t have to spend more cash on new chargers to fix Apple’s faulty software or iPhones.

For us in the UK as well, buying a new charger means £41 and then £16 for a charger plug to power it. That in and of itself is unacceptable. Apple needs to fix the issues.

I don’t know why, but my 12 Pro Max seems to be charging again now properly and I’ve done nothing to change it.

N.B. I appreciate your link to the Geekera charger that works, but I’m not spending more cash when this fault lies with Apple.

That's your theory.

My iPhone 12 Pro Max works perfectly with my Mophie puck Qi chargers along with a MagSafe charger.

My Belkin stand chargers work OK most of the time, but the fact that my Mophie chargers always work tells me it's more Belkin's issue than Apple's.

i have a wireless charger built into my car , and my iPhone 12 Pro Max won’t charge. It charges for a second and then stops. It works fine with my Belkin wireless charger in the house , just not in the car.

I bought an iPhone 12 Pro and it has not charged wirelessly once with my previous wireless charger. I even bought the clear apple mag safe case hoping that it would help but to date it has not worked properly. It starts charging when place on the charger ** then stops a few seconds later.. We have paid for a device that does not even work properly. I think apple should be allowing people that bought iphone 12 pros with the wireless charging issue to return their devices for new ones. At the bare minimum they should be communicating with consumers that they are aware of the problem and working on a software update that will fix the problem.

I totally agree with you. I spent way to much time chasing with someone to report my problem (which I already knew was an issue) only to have them say, I guess I'll have to pass you along to an expert advisor, or whatever language they use. Set up a telephone appointment for the next day. Then my battery died and I missed the first call. They call back a second time and I could not answer-they never sent me a follow up email so I could reschedule the appointment! We paid a lot of money for this phone (and the charger). AND-I already had to replace the first one because it didn't work properly. Come on, Apple!

My point is you guys are spending too much time complaining about something that Apple will fix eventually. It is just as easy to plug in the lightening cable and charge that way until they fix the software glitch.

Because the lightening adapter doesn't come with a plug. I can't charge my phone with my MacBook. And I also spent a bunch of money on a freaking wireless charger that is useless. And Apple knows this is a problem and the last software upgrade didn't fix it. THAT'S WHY.

it is really strange. When I put my phone to charge wireless it shows that it’s on mag safe and charging. But in reality it is not charging. Charger really works. Tried on other phone. Have latest update from apple iOS 14.4

I purchased this stand from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083S8418Z/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I received today. iPhone 12 Pro Max will still not charge wirelessly. Will only charge while plugged in to a lightning cord.

It appears the case does interfere with wireless charging. None of my iPhone cases cause any interruption in charging. Is the case you bought MagSafe ready? If it is, it could be interfering with the coil in the charging stand.

Neither of the 2 cases I bought (both from Amazon), said anything about being MagSafe ready. I did try the other case just now, to see if I had any success with that one. The case was: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08MQDNT28/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

• It was that case that had said on Amazon "[WIRELESS CHARGING]: This case will not block the wireless charging signal, make your iPhone 12 Pro Max charging fast with your wireless chargers without taking out the phone from case." But, I take that with a grain of salt. Sadly tho, that case did not work for wireless charging either, in spite of the claim otherwise.

I forgot to show the first case mentioned that I got from Amazon in my previous post. It was : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08N5SPLY8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The second case was only $17. As I previously stated, the first case was $23.

So, as far as cases go, it's really no big loss considering the price. I was just hoping against hope one of the cases would work for wireless charging, as I am really not comfortable at all using or charging my iPhone without a protective case on it. Will see what happens.

I purchased the 2 cases from Amazon a few days prior to ordering my 12 Pro Max, so that when the phone arrived I would have them already here to put my new shiny phone in to for protection. At that time, I wasn't really thinking much about the wireless charging issues. I think I might have read something about it at some point, but not given it much thought. Consequently, when I read those Amazon reviews, the charging issues didn't really resonate with me.

I have an iPhone 12 Pro Max and it doesn’t hardly charge on my dual charger. I’ll do a soft reset but that doesn’t fix it all the time. I know I can just plug it in like normal, but it’s more convenient to charger my iPhone, watch and AirPods on one wireless charging pad. Instead of having cords everywhere.
