8 Feb. (Portaltic/EP) –
Manzana continues to develop technology iPhone reverse wireless chargingeven though the company does not met the expected deadline to present said function with the line iPhone 14 Pro.
Reverse or bilateral wireless charging is a technology that allows users to recharge their ‘smartphone’ with a wireless charger and, in turn, load another device via mobile.
Within this framework, Apple has already achieved some advances such as the release in 2021 of the Extreme battery with MagSafe Battery Pack wireless charging system, which he first developed for the family of phones iPhone 12 and that it updated in 2022 with more power to speed up the charging time of the iPhone.
Following this line, the implementation of reverse wireless charging would allow the iPhone will charge any Qi wireless charging enabled accessoryfor example the AirPodsjust by placing them on the back of the ‘smartphone’.
According to statements from sources related to the company collected by 9to5MacApple planned include full support to launch this reverse wireless charging technology with the iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max. However, the function was not ready on time for launch.
However, the same sources assure that the company led by Tim Cook keep working on this feature and that “wait present it in a future iPhone“In fact, they hope to present a reverse wireless charging technology “more advanced”.
Specifically, Apple is developing a “wireless shutdown” firmware, as detailed by 9to5Mac, which would act as the basis for this upload function. Likewise, one of the key aspects in this development is the ability to manage charging speeds between iPhone and the other deviceas well as control the heat and the charging efficiency.
In addition to all this, the sources have also advanced that Apple is designing a specific user interface for reverse wireless charging that would be similar to what is currently used in chargers like MagSafe.
This means that the interface would include on-screen animations and sound effects in order to guide users to use the function.
Despite these plans, sources close to Apple have indicated, reverse wireless charging could be delayed again or even, remove the feature entirely.
