Yes and no.
Ford are performing my updates next week and so I will test this after then as one is for wireless charging performance. I am surprised that this makes much difference with the charging mat that you have. I have the same mat and an iPhone 13 Pro Max in an otter box commuter case (MagSafe compatible). What I notice with this set up is that the phone only just fits in the raised guides and so does not move around, and still the wireless charging is intermittent. Can I ask if your success was with a similar sized phone, and if you have a similarly thick (while MagSafe compatible) case? If it does need to be fixed at a set location and this works for a smaller phone, then the guides may need to be revived / the pad replaced with the the big triangle wedge divider at the bottom to allow a different alignment of the coils.Arrived on the good ship Amazon today.
Stuck one in place, don’t look too bad - see attached piccy.
My ‘phone, an iPhone 14 ProMax, was fully charged so put wifey’s iPhone 11 on the mat and in about 30 mins driving had charged from 62% to 78% and was fairly warm.
That’s more than mine has ever charged without this charge ring - only ever barely held its charge and got so hot until IOS shut down ‘phone to cool down!
Be interesting to test mine on there.
Anybody reckon I’d be able to stick a second ring on top of first?
One is not quite as thick as the camera surround on the genuine Apple case so a second may bring level high enough to either meet the ‘phone or become closer to it.
I like it.Hey everyone,
I’m aware that there are solutions to fix the wireless charging issue on our Mach-Es ranging from 3D print holders with a magsafe charger to fully built TWARPS
While the solutions, like TWARPS, were quite expensive, costing around $100 or too specifically custom that could be not as easy.
However, I’ve come up with a more affordable and pretty easy solution for $10 (2 magnet sets for $10). Simply attach the magsafe magnets to the rubber mat, and voila! The wireless charging issue is resolved.

Here’s how it turned out for me! I had some plastic holders from a different MagSafe magnets set that I used to make it look aesthetically pleasing, but it’s completely unnecessary, if you don’t wanna do it.
. Where can we find the plastic holders?
It was off another cheap set of magsafe magnets that go on the phone casesI like it.
Aesthetics are important
Well, I tried with one of those rings and my 14 ProMax doesn’t stay on charge or even charge 1%.
I am using 16 pro max (bigger than 14 pro max if i remember right) and still it works. Not sure why you are having an issue.
Neither do I. It has a genuine Apple MagSafe case. Have given up on again it as I had done before these posts about the charge rings ??
The updates, including the wireless charging performance update were installed. I have tested the wireless charging on 2 x 40 min journeys without a single dropout. The phone was marginally warm at the end of each journey. This is with an iPhone 13 Pro Max in an Otterbox commuter MagSafe compatible case. Obviously no MagSafe is present in the charger, and I did not modify with the adhesive MagSafe locator rings. My phone does fit snugly in the charger with no possible movement due to the guides. As this is now working, I cannot see any benefit testing with the magnetic locator as I’m unlikely to see any improvement.
Thanks for sharing. I tried this one, and it didn't work for me. It is a little thicker than I would expect, and I got the initial charge indicator. I couldn't find placement that would keep the charge stable.
