Despite that there are still times when you're effectively caught short, resulting in a desperate need to charge your phone quickly. There are a number of hidden tricks that you can employ which will make a huge difference to how fast your iPhone charges:


A few small tricks can make a big difference. A team member from 3uTools has tried all three methods.


1. Turn On Airplane Mode


Turn on Airplane Mode on iPhone Control Center, this is the single best thing you can do to make sure your iPhone charges faster. Please noted that you wouldn't receive any call or message, and App notification when your opened Airplan Mode.


Mobile networks, WiFi and Bluetooth are all features which constantly drain your battery. Turning them off reduces a huge amount of strain on the phone and allows the battery to charge a LOT faster.

2. Turn On Low Power Mode


Apple's battery-saving feature isn't just useful for when you're running out of battery, it's also handy for emergency charging too. It effectively turns off a number of processor-heavy tasks including some visual effects.


While its main job is negated by you turning on Airplane Mode, Low Power Mode does decrease the screen's power consumption. Find from "Settings"-"Battery"

3. Use The iPad Charger


Apple has three different types of USB charger available, the 5W foldable plug charger, the 5W fixed pin charger and finally the larger 12W USB charger.


Unsurprisingly the 12W charger is a lot more powerful, as it should be. It's originally released as the standard charger for the iPad and iPad Pro but there's nothing to stop you using it for your iPhone as well.
