My iphone 12 will not charge via the lightning port.

My iPhone 12 (iOS 16.5) will not charge via the lightning port. The phone can be charged wirelessly, however. I've tried cleaning the port, using a new cable and a different AC charger. Does anyone have a solution?

Using an Apple Brand Cable?:

Though not necessary, using an Apple peripheral with an Apple computer or mobile device is more trustworthy. based on personal experience.


For reference...

Troubleshooting iPhone Charge:

Visit the following links for tips on troubleshooting this...

I. Try what is on this Link: If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch won't Turn on or is Frozen - Apple Support


II. View the Battery Health:

Apple recommends you get a new battery, once the Battery Health reaches 80% or lower. When the Battery Health is 80% or lower, it is time for a new battery.

  1. Go To: Settings
  2. Tap: Battery
  3. Tap: Battery Health
  4. View: [the percentage]
  5. Is it 80% or less?  If so, it is time for a new battery.


III. Perform a Restart:

Try Force Restarting your iPhone. Save any information that need be. Then perform the restart.

Go Here: Force Restart iPhone - Apple Support


IV. A Few Apple Support Sites that May Help:
