My car has a regular USB port where I connect my iPhone 15 Pro via a USB-C to USB adapter to listen to music, this USB port barely has enough output to charge my phone. If I get the mophie Wireless Charging Vent Mount with MagSafe and the phone is plugged into the car’s USB port and also on the wireless mount, will it utilize the higher power source or default to the wired charger and ignore the wireless mount?
iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 17
Your iPhone won't charge wirelessly when connected to USB. If your iPhone is connected to your computer with USB, or if it's connected to a USB power adapter, your iPhone will charge using the USB connection.

The USB connection, if it can provide a charge, will take priority over the wireless connection.

Thanks Alex, I was wondering if the same applies when connected to a car with USB that doesn’t have enough power to charge the phone and hoping that it will default to the more powerful charger (even being wireless)
How is priority assigned between wireless and wired charging?
