I updated the IOS to 16.3.1 today. The iPhone 11 no longer wirelessly charges. I did a restart and that didn’t fix it. Any ideas? Thank you

Try a Forced Restart on the iPhone. Follow the instructions very carefully.


Force restart iPhone - Apple Support


Quick press and release on the UP button

Quick press and release on the DOWN button

Hold the SIDE button in until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Ignore the "slide to shut off" screen and keep holding until the Apple logo appears. Then release.

After I updated my iPhone 11 Pro to iOS 16.3.1 my wireless charging capabilities disappeared too. I’ve done everything but roll back the update, if that is even a thing. Still no luck so far. Another way Apple is “forcing” customers to get new phones “faking” hardware issues when nothing is wrong other than Apple “removing it on purpose for profit”.

Try connecting wired charging. While the phone is charging, do a Forced Reboot:


1. Press and quickly release Volume Up

2. Press and quickly release Volume Down

3. Press and hold the Side Button until the phone turns off. Release when you see the Apple Logo.

4. Once your phone is on, unplug the cable.

5. Unplugging the power cable from your Wireless Charger, wait a bit and plug it back in.

6. Place your iPhone in your wireless charger
