Will using iPad charger in iPhone damage battery

I have iPad and an iphone. If I charge my iPhone with my iPad charger will it damage my iPhone battery life? Because Lithium-ion battery love low power but not too low. And iPad charger will charge iPhone with high power.

iPhone 7, iOS 10.3.2

Hi


No, it will not damage the battery.


Apple advises that iPad USB Power Adapters can be used - along with an Apple or MFi-certified Lightning to USB Cable - to charge your iPhone:

Using a 10W or 12W iPad power adapter will also charge your iPhone a little more quickly than using the 5W USB Power Adapter that came supplied with your iPhone.
