Use the steps on this page to fix problems with slow wireless charging on your Pixel phone.
Check for overheating
- Let your phone cool off and try again.
- Make sure that the phone isn’t in direct sun or next to another heat source.
- Remove the phone from its case.
- Check to see if chargers are blocking airflow to your phone.
- Keep the screen dark while charging.
Check apps & connectivity
- After cooling your phone, restart it and try again. There might be apps running in the background that drain power.
- Check strength of wireless and cellular coverage. If coverage is poor, the device will likely burn more power.
Check physical problems
- Remove any metallic or magnetic objects, like ring holders, Apple MagSafe, or PopSockets, from the back of your phone.
- Make sure your phone is aligned correctly on the wireless charger.
Tip: When Adaptive Charging is active, slow charging over 80% is expected. Your phone will be fully charged before you wake up.
