Android phone not charging on wireless charger
The phone and charger are not making good contact or the charger is not powered on. Remove any thick case, place the phone directly on the charger, and check that the charger is plugged in. If it still does not work, restart both the phone and charger.
Wireless charging requires a good connection between the phone and charger. The most common issues are thick cases blocking the connection, the charger not being plugged in or powered, or a temporary glitch that a restart fixes.
- ✓Have your phone and wireless charger both available
- ✓Make sure the charger is plugged into a working power outlet
- ✓Be ready to remove the phone case if it is thick
