According to Apple's own article a MagSafe compatible case is recommended, but it is not necessarily required as long as the case you have is thin enough and most "regular" cases I would say probably are, it's those super heavy duty cases which may be a problem.

Anybody got any ideas? Hi, in order that the Magsafe will work, you need a support case for iPhone. the way to connect your Magsafe is place near the back camera of your Phone. נשלח מה-iPhone שלי ב-10 ביולי 2021, בשעה 18:36, Sieghard Weitzel <siegh...@live.ca> כתב/ה: Ed had apparently a moment of clarity when he said you may need a MagSafe case for best results, glad to know that such moments still come from time to time, Ed 🤣 Here is what it says about cases in an article from iMore called MagSafe for iPhone 12: Everything you need to know<https://www.imore.com/apple-magsafe-chargers-and-accessories-everything-you-need-know>: Do I need a new case? Apple's new MagSafe charger is specifically designed to work with Apple's own MagSafe accessories like its silicone case. However, you can use MagSafe to charge your iPhone even if it doesn't have a case on it. You can also try to use MagSafe with a case that isn't specifically MagSafe compatible, although results with this will likely vary depending on the case's material and thickness. One thing to keep in mind about case thickness? Apple is telling accessory makers that for MagSafe to work through the case, it can only be a maximum of 2.1mm thick, while Apple recommends a thickness of 2.0mm. That's thinner than a lot of the bulkier protective cases out there, so just be aware of that. You can even use the MagSafe charger on other devices like AirPods and older iPhones, just note that those will not have the magnetic charging ring that the iPhone 12 does, so the connection will be less secure. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> <viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com>> On Behalf Of Mr. Ed Sent: Saturday, July 10, 2021 7:52 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: MagSafe chargerI’ve just bought myself a MagSafe wireless charger for my iPhone 12 Pro Max, and I’m obviously being thick, because i can’t make it charge my phone.
