    Does anyone have this issue? Getting about 15-20% per hr through the usb. Not even using the phone heater which is 10% per hr at best. Phone in question IPhone 14pro max in case it matters

    I've noticed a dramatic difference in the charging speed when using the car play USB A versus the 12v and a dedicated phone charger. My assumption has been the carplay USB A isn't really meant to be a charger and rather just the wired connection to allow the car play to work on the head unit.
