One of the most common problems an iPhone user encounters is their charger not working, even though it is relatively new.
There are a number of potential reasons why your iPhone won't charge, but fortunately there are some fixes you can try to get your device charging once more.
With that, we have listed some of the easiest solutions to try if your iPhone is not charging properly:
1. Restart Your iPhone
According to Business Insider, restart your phone to see if there is still adequate battery life, and then try charging it once again.
Restarting the system and checking to see whether that resolves the issue is always helpful when debugging a problem.
However, it is important to note that this step won't help you if your phone's battery is really low-under 5%-or if it's already fully dead.
2. Check For Software Updates
Geeky Gadgets says that your iPhone may occasionally not be able to charge because of a software problem.
If you are not using the most recent version of iOS, this could be the cause of your phone not charging.
Even while they might not seem crucial when your phone is operating normally, software upgrades can prevent a variety of issues and even enhance performance.
3. Hit Factory Reset
According to Asurion, you might need to perform a factory reset on your phone if all else fails., and nothing can solve the problem of your iPhone not charging.
Resetting it will restore it to its factory default settings, perhaps eradicating any issues you may be experiencing.
However, it is important to note that you should make a backup of your smartphone first before doing this because it will erase all of the saved data from your device.

4. Inspect Your Charging Cable
Geeky Gadgets details that another potential cause of your iPhone's inability to charge is a problem with the device's charger or lightning connector.
The quickest way to determine if this is the problem is to replace the cable, charger, or both with a new one.
Because of this, having an extra lightning cord and charger for your device is always useful, and carrying one with you when going out is advised.
5. Check Your Power Source
Business Insider writes that you should also examine your power source as part of the extensive list of probable issues.
Make sure the computer is fully awake if you're using a USB port on a computer to charge your iPhone, or try a different USB port.
If it still doesn't work, use an AC adapter similar to the one that comes with your iPhone to connect it directly into a power socket.
If you've been using an AC adapter all along, try a different one by borrowing from a friend who has an iPhone or using the one that came with an iPad.
6. Repair Your iPhone
The only option an Apple Store can provide is to replace your entire iPhone if you bring your damaged iPhone in for repair and it has been physically or liquid damaged.
You should also contact an Apple representative to see what they can do if your iPhone won't charge, according to Payette Forward.
However, you can always visit a neighborhood mom-and-pop repair shop if all they can do is replace your iPhone.
