anyone having charging issues while connected and using apple car play? It seems on mine it wants to charge very slow or hardly at all. And I have tried both the USB port and usbc one.

No issues for me using a USB-A to Lightning cable from the Carlinkit-3 wireless adapter. Battery goes down relatively fast IMO when using Waze without the wire connected. I use the wireless mode most of the time unless Iâm traveling a long distance.anyone having charging issues while connected and using apple car play?

Hmm⊠and yet mine worked flawlessly on a 400 mile trip today. Guess thatâs just the way it isâŠNo issues with the USB ports but the wireless charger is absolutely worthless.
You're right, sitting at 100% charge is not good for the battery.ironically I have a newer phone, it holds a charge for quite some time. Minor first world issues, when I use the USB-c to listen to spoitify or map with waze, my phone is in a constant state of charge even if it's full. long term I can't imagine that's good for the battery. My work computer basically became a brick if it wasn't hooked to a power source because our laptops are wired to the wall monitors, and the connection is a dual charger much like the car system...it's a conundrum. I'd say as some have mentioned with my waze issues, perhaps you need a faster/better cable for better charging.
Not true, when my IPhone 13 shows a full charge and itâs plugged in it will show charging but itâs not.ironically I have a newer phone, it holds a charge for quite some time.

perhaps it's more a reflection of my age when it would degrade any chargable Good to know.Not true, when my IPhone 13 shows a full charge and itâs plugged in it will show charging but itâs not.
all these modern phones made in the last, oh I donât know, 20 years have on board logic circuits to keep it from over charging.
the most basic way to explain this is that charge indicator icon means âExternal powerâ and if the battery is not fully charged it will charge..
Did that make sense ?
Im a confusing person :âP
Now IF your phone gets hot itâs just working hard. Running apps and charging is a lot.
phones donât have internal fans like Lap tops.OR !
Iâve taken multi hour trips with my phone plugged in and using navigation on the phone with no heat at all but if I start streaming music also it gets warmer but not hot.
If your using a surface charger and your phone case between the charge pad and phone is getting hot itâs not the fault of the phone, it due to the things between the phone and charger.
I donât surface charge because of that heatâŠ
BUT if I take my phone out of the case I have little to no heat while surface charging.
Youâll get a new phone every three or four years anyway so use it up.
Check to see if your cell phone is compatible with wireless charging. Turned out that mine isn't.No issues with the USB ports but the wireless charger is absolutely worthless.
I have wireless charging and Carlinkit-4, the only issue Iâm having is with my phone overheating.anyone having charging issues while connected and using apple car play? It seems on mine it wants to charge very slow or hardly at all. And I have tried both the USB port and usbc one.
this is what I am seeing. Is there a way to boost that output or just live with it?The USB ports in the Bronco Sport seem to be 1 AMP output or so, around 5 watts, kind of like the early Apple chargers, so they don't charge fast.
