    iPhone 14 Pro How is the iPhone 14 Pro's Lightning Port Durability?

    You know, I'm in business, so I have a lot of things to charge my phone. I usually charge through the Lightning port about 10 times a day with Apple Genuine Charger and Lightning Cable. Is this not a problem with the life of the Lightning port?

    iPhone jumps between charging and not when moved around but doesn't seem to acknowledge it?

    A few months ago I first noticed that my iPhone 13 stopped charging when it was plugged in and I picked it up in the morning, indicated by the battery icon. It didn't make any noise or vibrate when the icon changed to charging again half a second later and I thought it was nothing. But it kept...

    Lanyard / loop / strap for iPhone lightning port ?

    Hi there. I've been scratching my head why Apple or someone hasn't come up with a lanyard or loop that would attach directly to the lightning port (just like the Remote Loop for the Apple TV remote). The only lanyards I've found require a case, or, if not, a metal plate with screws (for older...

    8 plus Headphones issue

    Anyone having issues with intermittent headphone play when plugged into the lightning port? When I plug headphones (any brand), it sometimes takes 2 or 3 times of plugging and unplugging it in to get it to play via the headphones. My husbands 8plus is doing this also. It’s super intermittent...

    Few of the bottom pins on the female lightning port are bent (see image). Out of warranty and no AppleCare. Anyone got an idea how much it will cost to replace?
