    I have a Prius prime 2024 with wireless charger. Unfortunatly I can't charge my Apple 16 pro with it. Is this a common issue? Any suggestions to get it to work would be great. Thanks

    Does the 16 Pro lie perfectly flat on the charger bed and the charger On button is in fact on?
    Since I’ve been getting Pro Max iPhones which are too large to lay flat in the charger I use the space for storing stuff.

    IMHO, Toyota's OEM wireless charging is just a gimmick. Even if you do get it to work, it'll continuously connect and disconnect as your going down the road. The only way to get reliable power into your phone is a hardwired USB cord.
