    Mine would not work for the longest. After some of the latest IOS updates, mine works flawlessly now. Mine charges slow and if left on long it will start to get warm. I just use the cord.

    I have a Samsung Galaxy S10 e and while the charger does work, it charges really slowly. I thought about getting a wireless charge specific case for it, but my phone charges so fast when I plug it into a wall socket that as long as I stay on top of it I'm usually okay.

    Same here. When it does charge for a bit it over heats ans stops and the lights on the side flash.

    I have a 2022 OR and my iPhone 14 Pro Max will not charge on the wireless charger. Even tried taking the case off and still nothing. And yes it's turned on. My friends iPhone SE charged on it once she took the case off.

    Seems like the Qi Charger in these Tacomas are just POS's.

    I have a 19 TRDOR and I’ve just given up on the wireless charger with my 14 max. I just use it as storage at this point. It works maybe 15% of the time, so I just gave up

    The camera bump is too large on the newer phones to allow the device to lay flat and interface with the charging mat.
    I added a MagSafe puck charger with double sided tape and it works great now.
    This thread may be worth checking out as well

    I tried that route w mine. Still didn’t work, even with being flat. I just use the normal cable in the truck as it is, so not a real issue. I honestly like storing stuff there!

    What route? A charging puck? There’s no way to make the stock qi pad work with a phone that won’t lay flat.
    Either way I’m glad you’re content

    Yes with the charging puck. It might be some issue on the phones end, or whatever it is, I just don’t really care to mess with it to figure it out ‍♂️
