Does car audio recognize the phone as an ipod or for Apply Carplay when using this case?
I purchased a 3rd party battery case and it said it had sync ability, which it does, but when I plug it into either of my cars, one of which has Apple Carplay, neither recognize that an iPhone has been connected. If I remove the case and plug directly into the phone it works as expected. This is a huge consideration in my opinion and wonder why any case would be built that would negate Carplay functionality...

Is the case always charging? No, on/off switch as needed?

- Flag as inappropriate (Is the case always charging? No, on/off switch as needed?)
Best Answer:That is actually false. There is no on and off switch, but your phone is always kept at 100% until the case dies and it's only then that your phone drops below 100%. The case doesn't damage your phone's battery as it runs off the cases battery first, and the phone knows that it's plugged into a battery case and thus halts backups and update and other battery intensive processes. But to answer your question there is no on/off switch which is actually beneficial because it reduces the amount that your actual phone battery is used and thus it will last longer over time

AnswerNo, the case is not water resistant, I would recommend taking off if there's any chance it may get wet, like if you are at a pool, etc.

AnswerThe battery capacity is 1369 mAh, so you’re getting more than the version from iPhone 7. This has two batteries inside the case this time meaning you can get twice the charge than you normally would

Fast Charging?
Can I charge this battery case using the iPad´s 18W powerbrick and the Apple USB-C to Lightning cable?
- Asked by Jaime Jesus B from Cd. Del Carmen
- Jan. 15, 2019
- Flag as inappropriate (Fast Charging?)
AnswerYes and no. It is compatible with fast charging, but you would need a USB-C adapter. The 18W iPad charger is not USB-C (been around since long before USB-C), so you would need the regular Lightning cable. Only the newest iPad Pros, the ones with the newer screens released in late 2018, use are USB-C.

Answer
If it sticks on your iPhone 7 smart case then I don’t see why not although the popsocket May lose its stickiness so keep that in mind.

Answer
The battery does drain first on the case meaning that your phone gets the full charge and your case will be the one draining the power not your phone.

Is the battery of the case replaceable?
Almost with all my iPhones, I end up having a really good condition case when the battery became useless. For me, batteries have shorter life time than the cases.
