Some iPhone users report that their iPhones cannot be charged after the iOS 14 update. Even if they change to a different wall outlet and a different computer, there is still no lightning bolt beside the battery icon in the status bar, and the iPhone device won’t show up in iTunes. How to fix this issue?
1. Choose the right USB adapter and USB cable for your iPhone device
Before starting, we need to choose a right USB adapter and USB cable for your iPhone device. If you have several iOS devices, there may be different iPhone and iPad chargers in your home. And Apple has different USB Power Adapters with 5W-1A, 5W-1.5A, 5W-2A, 5W-2.1 A, 5W-2.4 A. Some original 5W-1A, 5W-1.5A, 5W-2A charger with the original cable can be charged for iPhone 8 or earlier, but it can’t be charged for iPhone 11 and later.
2. Make sure the USB charging cable is normal
And then we need to make sure that the USB charging cable is normal, and we can connect other iPhone devices or iPads to check whether it can be charged. If you still can’t, you can consider replacing it with another USB cable for charging. If it can be charged, it means that the problem is related to the software or hardware on your iPhone. Then it will require the following solutions to solve it.
