A phone or tablet producing an unexpected result — wrong location, wrong contact, wrong output — usually traces to a permission, default-app or account setting, not a defect. For iPhone MagSafe charging, first remove the case, center the phone and test the puck with the specified adapter at room temperature.

0 of 4 completedCapture the exact failure state
ReversibleRecord exactly which permission, default app or account is active for the feature. Expected behavior: align, authenticate and charge at the supported rate without excess heat.
Isolate the component boundary
ReversibleRemove the case, center the phone and test the puck with the specified adapter at room temperature. Test with a second account or a different default app assigned to the same action. Boundary to separate: phone temperature and case alignment versus puck, adapter and outlet.
Correct only the proven cause
ReversibleReplace the failed adapter/puck or use a compatible case and cooler location. Correct the permission, default-app assignment or account setting proven by the comparison.
Verify and stop safely
ReversibleRepeat the original action and confirm the correct result with the fix in place. Stop for swelling, burning odor, melted insulation or persistent overheating.
