If Your iPhone Stops Charging, Try These Easy Fixes Before Upgrading Like Chris Evans

iPhones could stop charging their batteries due to a couple of issues. But in most cases, the problem could be fixed with a few easy and quick troubleshooting.

Not to mention that these fixes enable almost all iPhone users to resurrect their smartphones, thanks to the easy-to-follow steps that we've listed down below.

Fixing the battery issues on your older iPhone might allow you to avoid doing what the "Captain America" star, Chris Evans, recently did: upgrading his old iPhone 6s.

As per a news story by Forbes, the Marvel hero wrote that he "won't miss the nightly battle of trying to get" his iPhone 6s to charge its battery. Evans also sentimentally admits that he will miss the home button of his old iPhone.

Yeah, it has been a while since a phone maker released a device with a home button. Oh, wait, Apple recently released the 2022 iPhone SE, which unfailingly still flaunts a home button.

If Your iPhone Stops Charging, Try These Easy Fixes

According to a report by 9to5 Mac, there are tons of factors to blame when iPhones completely stop charging or suddenly get slower in refueling their battery.

It might have something to do with your charger or the lightning port itself, while it might also be some sort of a software issue.

That being said, here are some of the solutions to fix the charging issues on your iPhone.

Force Restart iPhone

Before thinking about the charging port or looking for a replacement for your charger, try doing the classic troubleshooting method for all sorts of issues - force restarting your phone.

Reserve Lightning Cable

Whether you like it or not, iPhones charge with lightning cables, which work on either side. In some cases, the other side might have some problems charging your battery, whereas its reverse counterpart still works fine.

So, try using both sides and check if it charges your iPhone.

Clean Lightning Port

If these two still fail, then try doing something that you should have been doing before it ended up like this, and it is through cleaning the charging port.

To do so, use a toothpick to carefully get rid of any debris and dust inside the charging port of your iPhone.

Replace Charger

Still not charging? Maybe it is time to replace your charger, and see if it fixes anything. But try to stay clear of cheap and sketchy options online, as it might make things worse.
