Dear editor:

My iPhone wouldn’t charge properly. 

The internet deluged me with reasons and fixes as to why. Then I found what the most common reason for this is. 

Lint from pockets can get into the charging port and disrupt the connections to the USB cable. 

Cleaning out the port with a suitable thin implement works wonders. Don’t be surprised how much lint gets in there!

Cheers,

Richard West
