Magnetic case for an iPhone XR

I have a magnetic case that I use with my iPhone 6. It is extremely useful when in my car as I don't have to faff about fixing the phone into a stand; I just place the phone on a magnetic holder.

I am considering buying a XR and am wondering if I could use a similar case.

Given that the XR supports wireless charging it is possible that the magnet may interfere with the charging.

Any thoughts?

Wireless Charging and Magnetic Phone Cases I just recently purchased the new iphone SE, which I think supports wireless charging. Now, I only bought the phone and not the charging dock, and don't intend on using WC in the near future. I do, however have a magnetic phone case, which has an actual magnet installed on it, It makes it really handy to stick it onto anything metal while I'm working. If I understand correctly, it definitely affects the phone if your'e trying to use the WC, but here's the question, Will having the magnet there mess with the phone even if I just charge it with a chord.

Question about iPhone XS wireless charging and magnet car mounts. I’ve used an Anker magnet mount in my car with my iPhone 7 for almost two years. Had to upgrade to the XS recently. Can I still use the magnet mount or will it affect the wireless charging and or/ damage the phone? It’s the type that has a square magnet that fits between the back of the phone and the case. Thank you.
