Answers to frequently asked questions

Does the cable support fast charging for all newer iPhone models?

The cable enables fast charging for iPhone models that support the "PD" function via the Lightning connector, in combination with a suitable USB-C charger.

Is this cable also suitable for transferring data between an iPad and a computer?

Yes, it allows you to easily transfer photos, videos, and other files from your iPad or iPhone to your computer or vice versa, if your computer has a USB-C connector.

How to tell the difference between an original and non-original Apple cable?

Original cables usually have higher quality terminations, smooth connector housings, and laser-printed markings, and rarely cause charging or data transfer errors when used.

Is the cable compatible with older chargers or only with new USB-C adapters?

The cable is intended for use with devices and chargers that have a USB-C output. It is not suitable for chargers with a classic USB-A output without an additional adapter.
