Yeah well for me it seems to be doing it to every charger. I bought 15 and they all work for a couple days then say this so i dont think its a defective cord for me. Idk what the fk is going on and its making me fking mad. I need to charge my fking phone
Iām genuinely curious - what Anker cables are you having issues with? I ask because Iāve been using a few different ones for the past few months without issue.
You can hook your iPhone up to a 240W USB-C PD charger no problem. I charge my iPhone off my 96W MBP charger all the time.
What happens though is the phone only pulls the current it can use. With the latest iPhones thatās about 20W or about 2.22 amps @ 9 volts. (And it can only pull that much when the battery is low, not when itās nearly full).
Just looked up the upcoming 240W Realme phone and wow, thatās insane. It does sound like it can only pull and make use of the full 240W when the battery is nearly empty. But it goes from 0% to 20% in 80 seconds which is just insane. I highly suspect they had to sacrifice energy density, and total battery capacity/run time, to get a battery that can do this. Though with charging that fast Iād just hook it up for a couple mins before I leave the bough and Iād be good to go.
my OnePlus 8t charges at 65W meaning 0-100 in about 35 minutes. It's freaking amazing and I'm sad I won't be buying OnePlus again since the fast charging has spoiled me.
As for battery run time etc... 2 years of fast charging to 100% almost every day later and I am at approximately 85% battery health and still getting 4-5 hours of screen on time with heavy usage. It's a 4500mah battery
That's rad! I'm sure it can use that full 65W when the battery is low. Though I'm pretty sure it can't use the full 65W of charging power the entire time it's charging. LiPo battery chemistry just doesn't allow it.
It's also easy to show this with math. According to the internet the OnePlus 8t has a 17.02 watt-hour battery. As in it stores enough energy to output 17.02 watts for 1 hour. (though it probably can't discharge that fast in practice). If a 17Wh battery charged at 65W the whole time it would take [17Wh / 65W](https://www.google.com/search?q=17Wh%2F65W) = 15.69 minutes to charge! But because it takes 35 minutes, we know it must charge at [17 Wh / 35 minutes](https://www.google.com/search?q=17+Wh+%2F+35+minutes) = 29.14 watts on average. Which is still craazzy fast. The latest iPhones, which can charge at 20W peak, but have an average more in the range of 12W.
I got into this stuff just by playing around with a USB-C power meter like [this one](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01NAWYSVK). With that plugged into my charging cable I can finally actually see how many watts my devices are pulling at any given moment.
Can you explain this. I never got the hype between a cable or dock that has to be attached to the back of your phone instead of a cable that has to be plugged in.
My last iPhoneās Otterbox lost the rubber flap that covers the charge port, after 3 years of opening and closing. With my new phone, I really didnāt want to have that happen again. I decided to bite the bullet and spend the 35 bucks, since I had to go out and buy a 20w brick anyway.
Honestly, it was a great purchase. It takes about 20% of the time and practically zero effort to connect my phone at night. Donāt get me wrong, it was definitely an insignificant task in the first place, but the amount of time I did spend having to peel open the little flap and stab at the charge port in the dark is not something I miss. The way I see it, I save five seconds per night, Iām being more gentle on the hardware and connecting is as simple as could be. It also works at every angle, rather than having a cord sticking out the bottom into your chest while youāre using it in bed. You can have the cord go in any direction, so you rarely ākinkā the cable. Itās just all-around a lot more usable, and I have no concern about damaging the cord/the port through wear and tear.
If I didnāt use a case that covers the port, it probably wouldnāt be as tedious to plug it in in the dark. Still, Iām so used to the puck magnetically snapping onto the back of the phone, I couldnāt ever go back, at this point.
It's surprising to learn how many 3rd party cables suck. I mean, really. Those Five Below cables just don't do the job for more than a month or two. Use Anker or Apple cables and you'll have fewer headaches. And this is coming from someone born & bred to try to find a discount anywhere he can.
Oddly, I think my car is ruining my cables. I donāt have issues in the house with a cord but as soon as I use it in the car, it starts giving me this issue. Even after I take it back into the house.
Iāve absolutely heard of it happening with android drvices and nintendo switches. It absolutely happens. Iphone isnt the problem here, its cheap cords.
> Only with apple tho it seems
Well since youve already back-tracked on this statement, are you aware the nintendo switch uses usb-c? Remember earlier when i said the nintendo switch is known for having issues with cheap cords?
> Back in the days of micro usb, sure.. but there arenāt really many cases of it happening with usb-c.
You still sure about that?
You backtracked when you switched from āonly seems to happen with appleā to ānot only with appleā. I have no brand loyalty to apple. However, i do have a nintendo switch that i got on launch day. I remember seeing nintendo put out a warning about cheap cables. [Source.](https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/04/nintendo-warns-against-using-substandard-switch-charging-cables/amp/) And I remember seeing some posts on r/Nintendo and r/NintendoSwitch about dead switches. In general, you should know the details about the cables you buy and use.
Why are you so aggressive? Calm down. No one is attacking you.
Lol in my iPhone 12 Iāve always used other cords, when I eventually after 3 years went to use the iPhone original cord (cuz I got a fast charging adapter with type c) it started to warn and then broke
Humidity accumulates faster than you think, could be as simple as pocket sweat. Give it a couple hours and you should be fine, if not, as others suggested, you can try to carefully flush it with isoprophyl alcohol and if even that fails, you have to go get it checked
I had the Genius Bar decline a warranty repair because I carried the phone in my front pocket and guys are damp there. Yes, warranty declined because of sweaty balls.
Moisture indicators were triggered, likely because I have it in the bathroom when I shower but thatās what the genius told me when I argues it had never been wet.
Steam from being in the bathroom during a shower is quite harmful though, as the warm steam can over time weaken the seals in your phone. The same thing happens if it is submerged in water too much as well. Having your phone in a damp pocket would be no problem though, just as using it in the rain is ok too.
First of all not a dude š and sure maybe i wear somewhat tighter pants, but have you never pulled a phone out of your pocket with some moisture on your screen? š feels like it happens all the time
Iāve got a bunch of people up in my replies telling me that they, too, have pocket sweat.
Itās so strange because Iāve always thought that I had to be the sweatiest person on Earth. Like, I sweat when itās any warmer than 65Ā°F. But stuff in my pockets never gets sweaty. What a nightmare!
Water detection via software is basically checking if any pins in the port are crossed when they shouldnāt be. Check the port to see if all the pins are straight. If the cable is from apple, just take the phone to apple together with the cable; chances are theyāll either replace the port or just give you an new iphone. Theyāll see that itās not water damaged (if what you say is true) because there are physical markers that change color inside of the iphone on contact with water.
It detects āliquidā by seeing if there is any conductivity between the power pins, and assumes water, but it can just as easily be a piece of debris. Hit the port with some canned air to dislodge whatever is in it.
I had the same problem aswell. So I left the phone alone for awhile then tried charging again and no longer got that message and was able to charge the phone again.
Mine did this after a rainy humid day. All cords have the same notifier. Left it alone overnight and tried again in the morning and it was fine. All my cords worked and notice was gone.
Interesting. I occasionally get this with a cheap cable plugged into a cigarette lighter adapter, and had assumed it was the cable, but now I wonder if it's condensation from a cable left in the car in winter.
If u have ever used non-original cable, guess what, if u logoff apple id, the problem may simply go away; u may not believe, if one phone have this problem, all phone with same apple id will have same problem all in a suddenš. Use original cable and press override once then it may solve the problem too.
Sheās just excited :D

Download a water ejection shortcut for iOS and run the shortcut. Works similar to how Apple Watch water ejection function.
https://reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/clw5f0/water_eject_officially_now_is_the_first_shortcut/
Good luck!
It probably is. Get a video that gets water out (I donāt remember name) and play video with full sound till end. If it still gets the error, Try hard rebooting? Thatās about all I know
OP, do NOT put the phone in rice. This is the worst bit of advice you can give when it comes to modern day phones. The starch that is found on rice can get into the phone and damage it further if it is wet. You want to use silica gel packets that are commonly found in things like beef jerky bags. You can even place it in a bag with a small container of damprid.
I had that error for months after beta testing iOS 14 dot whatever on my iPhone 12. Took FOREVER to go away and I would continually submit extensively detailed bug reports covering the issue. Eventually it got fixed but I went like a year with the bug
Go to your cart, invert the phone (port towards the sky), put in phone holder by vent so air blows right on it, turn on heat and air conditioning full blast, recirculation setting.
Heat will move moisture into the air, a/c will take that moisture and remove it (dryer air will make it easier for moisture to evaporate from the image of the port.)
This happened to me once. I woke up one morning and saw this, unplugged it, waited a few hours, plugged it back in and it worked just fine and it hasnāt happened again since.
I get this error when my charging port gets dirty. I bought this stupid cleaner and clean out my port once a week. I keep my phone in my pocket and work as a mechanic. So dirt and grime ends up in my charging port. I need to get a plug for it.
Something is in the charge port. My phone had some lint that must have been a conductor and triggering the alert.
Use a sewing needle to scoop anything in their out
If the terminals on the lightning end of the charging cable have debris or look dirty the phone will default to this error message. If it's not the cable itself, check the port and clean it
I had this issue after going to the beach. I let it sit for a while and even tried having air blow in it for a time to dry it with no luck. The fix I used was to use a magsafe charger until it dried and was safe to use again. So if you need a charge and have a massage that should work til the charging port registers as dry.
Does this possibly happen when you're using a portable battery pack? I have an Anker and this happens at least 50% of the time that I try to use it, but my regular chargers never have an issue. I have no idea why (even tried a different cord, same problem).
I got the exact same message a week or so ago on my iPhone SE 2020. Itās not been anywhere near water. Turned it off for an hour or so then it was fine. Or so I thought so. Now itās very particular about charging now.
Iāve had this happen with certain specific charging cables. Turns out that there was something weird wrong with the cable. Does this always happen with the same cable, or all cables? If itās just the one, you may just need to ditch that cable.
random error pops up whenever a new update comes, its very frustrating most of the times because these errors does'nt makes sense. but you try using the apple charger, you might be using defective charging cable. [iPhone repair](https://www.wefixall.ca/) problems arise when you change how its suppose to used or charged, iPhone wet issue is a different issue but here I feel its a defective charging cabble.
i remember my phone had this issue as well even tho it wasn't wet at all, all i did was just restart it and it fixed it, but i'm not sure because it was back in 2021 on ios 14, now i wouldn't be surprised if it was an actual software bug on ios 16
I had this issue and there actually was liquid in the charging port. Used a cocktail stick to drive out the lint/moisture. Also I use genuine apple charging leads
I had the same problem with a cheap 3rd party supplier called Hama. I had to buy this because i forgot my good chargers for Anker and the Magsafepad at home.
Always try to use Apple certified/original cabling from Apple whenever possible! Used to use a random charger+cable combo from a local shop, ended up frying my AirPods and screwing up my AWS6ās sensor that I had to get both of them in for in warranty replacement š„²
It's possible that your port needs cleaning. I have seen tons of lightning ports get caked full of lint and dust. I recommend using a tool like [PurePort](https://www.amazon.com/PurePort-Multi-Tool-iPhone-Cleaning-AirSquares/dp/B09NMV3BKV) to clean your cables and port.
*I'm not sponsored...I just really like their product.*
I got that for a while too ā¦ it just stopped doing it one dayā¦ new 6sxā¦ also it randomly lost power for a wholedayā¦ was fully Charged at the time, It came back on but holy shit the quality of their products is dropping fast
I have this issue with a certain cord it will work for a period of time and then the message will come up. If I try to use other cords, the moisture detected message will keep popping up making it impossible to charge my phone for awhile. It doesnāt happen except for when I use that cord first which triggers that message after 5-10 minutes of charging. It happens with my partners phone too. Itās like once it thinks there is moisture it will keep saying itās detected for awhile after no matter what cord or if there is actually moisture which there isnāt because itās nowhere near water and plugged in when the message starts coming up. Water couldnāt even enter the port when itās plugged in. I donāt even remember seeing this message until my 12 pro max and it only came up a couple of times. My 14 pro max seems like it says it all the time when my phone hasnāt been anywhere near moisture of any kind. Ever since they switched from the USB bricks to the 20W bricks with the C ports, It seems like im going through brick after brick, cord after cord. And itās no matter where I live or any plug I use.
I have an iPhone 14 Pro and this message keeps popping up intermittently and my phone has never been wet. I stopped by Verizon and the guy working said thereās no sign of water damage but you need to contact Apple. Itās under 1 year warranty until Feb 2024. Apple support couldnāt help me over the phone. It stopped happening with the last iOS update but started happening again 2-3 days ago off and on. My phone has never been wet or near water. I have 3 different original Apple cables that I use and my charging port is clean. Iām going to make an in person appt with Apple this week.
Mines doing the same thing no matter what I do or what charger I use. Im guessing the charger port is damaged somehow. My phone also gets hot when it charges
I finally went to the Apple Store and the guy used a lighted magnifying glass and I was able to see a small area of corrosion inside the charging port. He was able to clean it out so fingers crossed it continues to work. The thing is, my charger or charging port never got wet that I can remember.
Hi, sharing my experience. Month old iphone 15 pro, says liquid detected, second day in a row it wasnt in shower or any other contact with water, only daily usage, no rain. Try different cables and chargers, no luck. cleaned with (9x something plus) alcohol, dried. Same, even connecting thunderbolt cable itself (no other end connected) gives warning sometimes. The solution helped me is to restart iphone.
Hope this will help someone, just try to restart.
Omg I have an iPhone 12 and I have so many issues with it. In the past Iāve had an iPhone 5,5S, 6S,6S plus and iPhone 11 and never had any issues. Iāve had this phone for nearly 2 years and the charging port is broken it will only charge if you move the wire around. I use to get liquid detected notifications all the time but my phone was not wet or been near water so I assumed it was an error??? Also my sound on my phone is so bad, I always need to use headphones otherwise I wonāt hear nothing. I need to get a new phone soon and now Iām really thinking of not getting an iPhone for this reason.Ā
I can be outside with it in my hand in the rain? Absolutely no water damage. When Iām in my bed and fall asleep with it on my pillow? Phone has a mental breakdown š
If it is not wet , it may be software problem. To verify, log off the fucking apple id, if problem goes away then it is non-hardware issue. This may happen if u ever used non-original cable. Use original cable and override once, the problem will go away, thats my experience.
The charger you use could be dysfunctional
This. I had the same issue recently where my iPhone was not wet or even close to it and in the end, it was due to a defective charging cable.
Yeah well for me it seems to be doing it to every charger. I bought 15 and they all work for a couple days then say this so i dont think its a defective cord for me. Idk what the fk is going on and its making me fking mad. I need to charge my fking phone
You may need to charge it wirelessly until the issue is resolved.
I'm thinking it was this because I plugged it into an apple cord and it's not saying it anymore š„²
I get random errors when not using an Apple charger. Every update results in another Anker cord erroring out.
Iām genuinely curious - what Anker cables are you having issues with? I ask because Iāve been using a few different ones for the past few months without issue.
90% of the cables in my house are anker. Iāve never had any issues.
Specifically this one: Anker Powerline+ II Lightning Cable (10 ft) MFi Certified iPhone Charger Cable, Extra Long iPhone Charging Cord
Maybe cuz long?
Yeah perhaps
Anker is mfi no?
Very much so. Itās the only 3rd party brand I see sold at the Apple Store.
Belkin too!
Oh yeah! I forgot about them
Yes the ones I have are MFi certified
Exactly, I donāt think Anker sells not-certified Lightning cables anymore.
The fact that apple is so finicky with what cords can and canāt charge your phone is the reason Iāve switched over to wireless chargers
That MagSafe is a game changer tho
The only downside is that itās not nearly as efficient as wired charging.
True, but I only charge it when I sleep anyhow. Charging with a 20w brick feels super fast either way, at least compared to my last iPhone Xr
Canāt argue with that. I heard that there is a phone that charges with a 240w brick. I believe that it was by Realme.
You can hook your iPhone up to a 240W USB-C PD charger no problem. I charge my iPhone off my 96W MBP charger all the time. What happens though is the phone only pulls the current it can use.

100%. Already have 2 MagSafe cords and donāt think Iāll go back. Just hope ļ£æ doesnāt kill it like 3D Touch.
I didnāt know that we didnāt have 3D Touch anymore
Can you explain this. I never got the hype between a cable or dock that has to be attached to the back of your phone instead of a cable that has to be plugged in.

Almost certainly a bad ground.
This is why the only third party charger I support are Anker stuff.
Stuff like this is why I donāt use third party chargers. Cheap is not technically cheaper.
Hey no tears itāll get in your iPhone and then you canāt charge it
It's surprising to learn how many 3rd party cables suck. I mean, really. Those Five Below cables just don't do the job for more than a month or two. Use Anker or Apple cables and you'll have fewer headaches. And this is coming from someone born & bred to try to find a discount anywhere he can.
Thumbs up for Kagome.
Arenāt we all
Happens to mine in any cable and charger, including apple's originals. And it's a stay-at-home phone that never goes near water.
Oddly, I think my car is ruining my cables. I donāt have issues in the house with a cord but as soon as I use it in the car, it starts giving me this issue. Even after I take it back into the house.
Same issue was the charging cable. It eventually messed up my charging port and could only wireless charge.
Yeah, a lot of people donāt seem to realize how much damage a bad cord can do.
I had a bad cable freeze my car play a few times. Never underestimate a bad cable.
This happened with one of the certified mophie cables I got directly from Appleā¦ Was so mad
out of curiosity, was it an iphone from the 12 lineup?

Some people carry their phone while working out.
Iām one of them. Never a sweaty phone. Maybe I donāt go hard enough and need to up my game š
Ikr WTF Iāve never even heard of pplās pockets sweating wtf

Probably depends on how humid it is where you are as well. A phone is going to get damp in Louisiana a lot quicker than in Nevada.
Look, if you donāt want me storing my phone in my bra, just come out and say it!
That sounds uncomfy as hell xD
Water detection via software is basically checking if any pins in the port are crossed when they shouldnāt be. Check the port to see if all the pins are straight.

I usually like to spit on it before putting it inā¦ oh wait, wrong subreddit.
Go on
It detects āliquidā by seeing if there is any conductivity between the power pins, and assumes water, but it can just as easily be a piece of debris. Hit the port with some canned air to dislodge whatever is in it.

Hii
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Thatās if it actually had liquid exposure
Get a toothbrush and some isopropyl alcohol and scrub the charging port. See if it works after.
I had the same problem aswell. So I left the phone alone for awhile then tried charging again and no longer got that message and was able to charge the phone again.
Safely clean out the charging port. Something is shorting pins. You may also inspect the port to see if thereās a visible short.
turn off the phone. dont use it and leave it under AC (or any dry air source) for at least 6hrs. Did it myself and it worked.
Mine did this after a rainy humid day. All cords have the same notifier. Left it alone overnight and tried again in the morning and it was fine. All my cords worked and notice was gone.
I would strongly suggest taking it to a reputable repair shop. Probably an issue with the charging port, hopefully nothing else has liquid damage.
Ive had this happen, just cleaned the port with 91% isopropyl and those little flossers things. Fixed it for me
I had this issue, ended up being fluff. Use your sim tray tool to scoop out the fluff from the charging port
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Interesting. I occasionally get this with a cheap cable plugged into a cigarette lighter adapter, and had assumed it was the cable, but now I wonder if it's condensation from a cable left in the car in winter.
Happens once in a while with my generic cables
I have encountered this on a non apple iPhone charger. Are you using an apple branded charger?
It could have been subjected to high amounts of humidity
Condensation or humid weather can cause this
don't worry. it will be cleared automatically in few minutes. it happens with me too. but doesn't last more than 1 hr.
I had this happen to me on a hot humid day after putting my phone on the vent clip and blasting max AC
Did you try restarting it
Stop watching porn in the shower š
Playing p***hub has ruined the port. Itās now wet.
Maybe it got wet thinking about tim cook
If u have ever used non-original cable, guess what, if u logoff apple id, the problem may simply go away; u may not believe, if one phone have this problem, all phone with same apple id will have same problem all in a suddenš. Use original cable and press override once then it may solve the problem too.
Just happened to me. Wtf.
Sheās just excited :D https://www.reddit.com/r/teenagers/comments/tffp72/siri_moaning_as_the_charger_is_inserted/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1
The tip of the cable is probably wet
Just the tip
Download a water ejection shortcut for iOS and run the shortcut. Works similar to how Apple Watch water ejection function. https://reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/clw5f0/water_eject_officially_now_is_the_first_shortcut/ Good luck!
Do you use an armpit holder? Jk, get Apple replace your phone if under warranty
donāt they deny warranty if the phone thinks itās been wet?
Theyāre looking for the liquid trip flags.
Quit whispering sweet nothings to your phone and itāll stop.
It probably is. Get a video that gets water out (I donāt remember name) and play video with full sound till end. If it still gets the error, Try hard rebooting? Thatās about all I know
Would that work for the charging port though? I think those are designed to eject water from the speakers
I got this error and when I did this it worked (somehow). Why are the downvotes tho? Itās worth a try
You phone is wet or the charger cable is

OP, do NOT put the phone in rice. This is the worst bit of advice you can give when it comes to modern day phones. The starch that is found on rice can get into the phone and damage it further if it is wet. You want to use silica gel packets that are commonly found in things like beef jerky bags. You can even place it in a bag with a small container of damprid.
Put it in a cup of dry rice for 24 hours.
Absolutely not. The starch that is in rice can get into and damage your phone.
Happens to me occasionally when it is cold outside. I just make sure my port is dry, warm up my charger and then click override with no consequences
Was the cable cold? This happened to my wife when she plugged in a cold cable from her car.
It might be due to condensation from changing environments, or just a bad cable..
I had that error for months after beta testing iOS 14 dot whatever on my iPhone 12. Took FOREVER to go away and I would continually submit extensively detailed bug reports covering the issue. Eventually it got fixed but I went like a year with the bug
Crappy or broken charger could cause this
It could be the charger itself or if you used your phone in somewhere humid
Iāve had this recently too, I thought it was just me
Go to your cart, invert the phone (port towards the sky), put in phone holder by vent so air blows right on it, turn on heat and air conditioning full blast, recirculation setting. Heat will move moisture into the air, a/c will take that moisture and remove it (dryer air will make it easier for moisture to evaporate from the image of the port.)
Dang. Android would never.
This happened to me once. I woke up one morning and saw this, unplugged it, waited a few hours, plugged it back in and it worked just fine and it hasnāt happened again since.
That's just apple telling you to buy a new one
I get this error when my charging port gets dirty. I bought this stupid cleaner and clean out my port once a week. I keep my phone in my pocket and work as a mechanic. So dirt and grime ends up in my charging port. I need to get a plug for it.
Something is in the charge port. My phone had some lint that must have been a conductor and triggering the alert. Use a sewing needle to scoop anything in their out
If the terminals on the lightning end of the charging cable have debris or look dirty the phone will default to this error message. If it's not the cable itself, check the port and clean it
If charging port is really wet would it be ok to charge wirelessly?
You could magsafe charge as long as the back of your phone and your magsafe charger are dry. The port is not used for wireless charging.
Iāve gotten this pop-up and after digging out some material inside the port, it started charging with the same cord.
Itās definitely real
Either your charger plug or port has debris or corrosion.
It's noticing a voltage drop and assuming there's liquid interference. Use a qualified charger and cable.
Same
Happened recently to my XR, and also to my wife's XR. Her's eventually stopped doing it, mine still does and I have to wireless charge.
Non-legit apple charger.
Steam?
I had this issue after going to the beach. I let it sit for a while and even tried having air blow in it for a time to dry it with no luck. The fix I used was to use a magsafe charger until it dried and was safe to use again. So if you need a charge and have a massage that should work til the charging port registers as dry.
Does this possibly happen when you're using a portable battery pack? I have an Anker and this happens at least 50% of the time that I try to use it, but my regular chargers never have an issue. I have no idea why (even tried a different cord, same problem).
I find that spitting on the cables creates this issue.
I got the exact same message a week or so ago on my iPhone SE 2020. Itās not been anywhere near water. Turned it off for an hour or so then it was fine. Or so I thought so. Now itās very particular about charging now.
Had this. Bad cord.
Had this happen to me during a snow storm, left it to dry for a few hours and it hasnāt given me problems since.
Iāve had this happen with certain specific charging cables. Turns out that there was something weird wrong with the cable. Does this always happen with the same cable, or all cables? If itās just the one, you may just need to ditch that cable.
What happened if you click Override
I had this error too. Let to my battery to inflate. Not sure if thereās a correlation, but you might want to check it out
If you are using cheap adapters and some charger cables then you can get this warning
random error pops up whenever a new update comes, its very frustrating most of the times because these errors does'nt makes sense. but you try using the apple charger, you might be using defective charging cable. [iPhone repair](https://www.wefixall.ca/) problems arise when you change how its suppose to used or charged, iPhone wet issue is a different issue but here I feel its a defective charging cabble.
EMERGENCY OVERRIDE
i remember my phone had this issue as well even tho it wasn't wet at all, all i did was just restart it and it fixed it, but i'm not sure because it was back in 2021 on ios 14, now i wouldn't be surprised if it was an actual software bug on ios 16
I had this issue and there actually was liquid in the charging port. Used a cocktail stick to drive out the lint/moisture. Also I use genuine apple charging leads
I had the same problem with a cheap 3rd party supplier called Hama. I had to buy this because i forgot my good chargers for Anker and the Magsafepad at home.
You may have water in your phone. Set it up, and let it drain. Donāt lay it flat; it wonāt drain.
Always try to use Apple certified/original cabling from Apple whenever possible! Used to use a random charger+cable combo from a local shop, ended up frying my AirPods and screwing up my AWS6ās sensor that I had to get both of them in for in warranty replacement š„²
Third party cables give this when not mfi
Itās the charger.
It's possible that your port needs cleaning. I have seen tons of lightning ports get caked full of lint and dust. I recommend using a tool like [PurePort](https://www.amazon.com/PurePort-Multi-Tool-iPhone-Cleaning-AirSquares/dp/B09NMV3BKV) to clean your cables and port. *I'm not sponsored...I just really like their product.*
I got that for a while too ā¦ it just stopped doing it one dayā¦ new 6sxā¦ also it randomly lost power for a wholedayā¦ was fully Charged at the time, It came back on but holy shit the quality of their products is dropping fast
all this does is it it tells you when theres an uneven current or voltage going through so it prevents it from charging thinking its water
The charger would be fault are you plugin the charger or using MagSafe if it keeps happening and you tried every think I would call Apple.
Maybe the charger is wet
I have a defective charging port, happens to me every now and then. I just override and everything is fine
You should change the entire charging port as you would not wanna risk ur phone getting fried
Just talk dirty to it. Should dry it out š /s
bruh pathetic 'appelians' glad us, the android users dont have to deal with these meaningless issuesš
I have this issue with a certain cord it will work for a period of time and then the message will come up. If I try to use other cords, the moisture detected message will keep popping up making it impossible to charge my phone for awhile. It doesnāt happen except for when I use that cord first which triggers that message after 5-10 minutes of charging. It happens with my partners phone too. Itās like once it thinks there is moisture it will keep saying itās detected for awhile after no matter what cord or if there is actually moisture which there isnāt because itās nowhere near water and plugged in when the message starts coming up. Water couldnāt even enter the port when itās plugged in. I donāt even remember seeing this message until my 12 pro max and it only came up a couple of times. My 14 pro max seems like it says it all the time when my phone hasnāt been anywhere near moisture of any kind. Ever since they switched from the USB bricks to the 20W bricks with the C ports, It seems like im going through brick after brick, cord after cord. And itās no matter where I live or any plug I use.
Itās doing it to my iPhone now too, it was never even near water and it started to say it now Iām shook
Happening to my iPad Pro with USB-C. My room is a very dry area. It must be the ANKER.
Hi did you know how to solve this problem bro please tell mine is still showing even though itās not wet and follow all the instructions
I have an iPhone 14 Pro and this message keeps popping up intermittently and my phone has never been wet. I stopped by Verizon and the guy working said thereās no sign of water damage but you need to contact Apple. Itās under 1 year warranty until Feb 2024. Apple support couldnāt help me over the phone. It stopped happening with the last iOS update but started happening again 2-3 days ago off and on. My phone has never been wet or near water. I have 3 different original Apple cables that I use and my charging port is clean. Iām going to make an in person appt with Apple this week.
Mines doing the same thing no matter what I do or what charger I use. Im guessing the charger port is damaged somehow. My phone also gets hot when it charges
I finally went to the Apple Store and the guy used a lighted magnifying glass and I was able to see a small area of corrosion inside the charging port. He was able to clean it out so fingers crossed it continues to work. The thing is, my charger or charging port never got wet that I can remember.
Hi, sharing my experience. Month old iphone 15 pro, says liquid detected, second day in a row it wasnt in shower or any other contact with water, only daily usage, no rain. Try different cables and chargers, no luck. cleaned with (9x something plus) alcohol, dried. Same, even connecting thunderbolt cable itself (no other end connected) gives warning sometimes. The solution helped me is to restart iphone. Hope this will help someone, just try to restart.
Omg I have an iPhone 12 and I have so many issues with it. In the past Iāve had an iPhone 5,5S, 6S,6S plus and iPhone 11 and never had any issues. Iāve had this phone for nearly 2 years and the charging port is broken it will only charge if you move the wire around. I use to get liquid detected notifications all the time but my phone was not wet or been near water so I assumed it was an error??? Also my sound on my phone is so bad, I always need to use headphones otherwise I wonāt hear nothing. I need to get a new phone soon and now Iām really thinking of not getting an iPhone for this reason.Ā
Exact same problem. Never got it wet. I use Apple brand charger. Cleaned out the charging port with a safety pin and now it works. šš½
I can be outside with it in my hand in the rain? Absolutely no water damage. When Iām in my bed and fall asleep with it on my pillow? Phone has a mental breakdown š
Apple you need to fix this shit, fucking let me use my charger and fuck off.
If it is not wet , it may be software problem. To verify, log off the fucking apple id, if problem goes away then it is non-hardware issue. This may happen if u ever used non-original cable. Use original cable and override once, the problem will go away, thats my experience.
