    • Don't use your mouth to blow into your charging port, as the moisture from your breath can damage the contacts.

    • Point the tip of a dust blower, or the nozzle of compressed air, at one corner of the charging port.

    • This gives room for any debris to eject out of the charging port.

    • Blow a few puffs of air into the charging port.

    • Plug in your iPhone to check if it charges and if the charger is fully seated.

    • If your iPhone isn't charging or seats properly, unplug it and repeat the blowing process.

    • If your iPhone still doesn't charge or sits properly after multiple repetitions, move to the next step.

    • Don't use any metal tools to clean the port, as you risk damaging the port.

    • Insert the head of a brush, like a dry toothbrush, into the charging port.

    • Gently turn the brush in small circles to break up any clumped debris.

    • Remove the brush and use a dust blower or compressed air to blow out any debris.

    • If any debris is stuck, reinsert the brush and rotate it to let the hairs "scoop" out any debris.

    • Plug in your iPhone and check if it's charging. If it's still not charging, move on to the next step.

    • Follow this guide to make a custom cotton swab.

    • You can also use dental picks with barbed tips (non-flavored).

    • You can use a normal cotton swab, but most are too thick and have loose cotton that can snag on the pins.

    • Apply a few drops of highly-concentrated isopropyl alcohol (>90%) to the cotton.

    • Insert your tool into the charging port.

    • Don't force the tool into the charging port, as you risk bending the pins.

    • Slide the tool back and forth along the charging port to clean it.

    • Wait a few minutes for the isopropyl alcohol to evaporate before plugging in your iPhone and testing it.

    • Plug in your iPhone and check if it's charging:

    • If your iPhone is charging, congratulations!

    • If your iPhone isn't charging, repeat the isopropyl alcohol cleaning process.

    • If your iPhone still isn't charging after multiple cleaning attempts, and you confirmed with a flashlight that there's no debris, you may need to replace the charging port.

    • To replace your charging port, go to this page, find your iPhone's model, and follow the respective charging port guide for detailed instructions.
