iPhone 15 - charging/not-charging between

I’ve been facing a charging issue with my iPhone 15 for some time now. The phone keeps switching between charging and not charging randomly, without any clear pattern.


I’ve tried using the original Apple charger and cable, as well as other certified chargers and even power banks — but the issue remains the same.


Has anyone else experienced this problem? Any suggestions on what might be causing it or how to fix it would be appreciated.

iPhone 15, iOS 26

Hello Saya130,

Check the charging port for lint or other debris (use a bright light and a toothpick).

If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won‘t charge

Good luck.

For reference...

I. Try what is on this Link: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't Turn on or is Frozen - Apple Support


II. View the Battery Health:

Apple recommends you get a new battery, once the Battery Health reaches 80% or lower. When the Battery Health is 80% or lower, it is time for a new battery.

  1. Go To: Settings

  5. Is it 80% or less?  If so, it is time for a new battery.

Try Force Restarting your iPhone. Save any information that need be. Then perform the restart.

Go Here: Force Restart iPhone - Apple Support
