If I remove the the rubber pad covering the wireless charging location my iPhone 12pro charges just fine so it seems to be compatible. I tried removing the phone case instead but that did nothing. I have to remove the pad.
I found even without the pad, just sitting there in the driveway, my 12 Pro would lose connection within a couple of minutes. My 13 Pro Max charges now every time, all the time.
Interesting. I havenāt paid the slightest bit if attention to the iPhone 13ās. Do they have the silly MagSafe feature as well?
I just have an aftermarket magsafe puck sitting on the right side of the pad, plugged into the USB C port there, nothing fancy.
They do still have MagSafe, but there was some rumor about a very slight change to the MagSafe design. I donāt know if thatās real or not, but my MagSafe accessories all still work fine, and I have yet to see the 13 Pro Max lose charging connectivity in the Mach-E regardless of phone orientation. Separately, Iām 100% PAAK and have had great success with that, too.
Neither mine or my wifeās 13 Pro will charge any longer. The phone indicator lights up like itās charging, but the charging icon on the car screen never lights up and eventually the phone indicator goes off as well. Tried removing the phone case but didnāt help. Previous 8 and X were flawless. Sad to see this.
I am in the same boat, but with Android (Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ and Samsung Galaxy S21). No phones will work on our wireless chargers these days. Our phones do not even light up and pretend to charge. It has been this way for over a month. I have a dealer service appointment for all kinds of things on Friday, so I am hoping they might be able to fix this. The dealer seems to think that the PaaK update is going to fix it. I highly doubt that is going to be the case, especially since it had worked for the first 5 monts that I had the car. I am just glad that I can finally get my car into the dealer because the dealer service technicians in the Chicago area had all been on strike for a couple of months. Glad I didn't have any major issues, just some random ones, mostly related to usability and software.
Thatās strange. Sounds like you might want to head to the dealer on that one to check the pad functionality. My 13 Pro Max under 15.0.2 (latest OS as I type this) still charges fine. In fact, even with CarPlay running, Apple Maps navigating, and Apple Music playing, I still arrive with a higher charge level than I left with.
Yeah, but thatās not going ro happen, at least not quickly. Appointments are three weeks out and Iāve confirmed the 8 and X still work. All devices have 15.0.2.
There are comments here stating that the problem is that the iPhone 12 pro is not Qi compatible but that's not true. I have the same phone and was having the same problem but my phone works fine on other Qi wireless chargers. Additionally I found that if you remove the rubber pad from the charging surface in the MME the phone charges just fine so clearly it's not a compatibility issue. Unfortunately that leaves the phone sliding around on the smooth surface thats underneath that rubber mat which is not ideal. Interestingly my old phone (iPhone XR) charges fine with the mat in place so I am not sure what the issue is here. Wireless charging can be finicky in general.
I just read this last night, see if it helps
Thanks but my problem isnāt with CarPlay connection . Itās charging on the Qi pad. Iāve resorted to a cable for now which has the added bonus of lossless audio using apps that support it.
