Can i use off brand usb c chargers with my iPhone 13?

I travel for work and recently purchased an iPhone 13. I have a multi-usb port charging station I use when I travel, but it doesn't have a USB-C space. Can I safely use a USB to USB-C converter so I don't have to buy a whole new charging station?

iPhone 13, iOS 15

If you do buy a third-party cable, it's best if it includes one of these stickers below on their packaging. This ensures that they are safe to use. Many third-party manufacturers produce MFi approved products.




If you use an uncertified accessory, Apple warns about the following issues-

  • Your iOS device could become damaged
  • The cable might be easily damaged
  • The connector end might fall off, get very hot, or might not fit properly into your device
  • You might not be able to sync or charge your device
